英语过去式的变化规则The Rules of Forming the Past Tense in EnglishThe past tense in English is used to describe actions, events, or states that have already occurred. There are several rules for forming the past tense in English, and understanding these rules is crucial for effective communication. In this article, we will explore the various rules for forming the past tense in English and provide examples to illustrate each rule.Regular VerbsThe past tense of regular verbs is formed by adding "-ed" to the base form of the verb. For example, the base form of the verb "walk" becomes "walked" in the past tense. Similarly, the base form of the verb "talk" becomes "talked" in the past tense. Here are some more examples of regular verbs in the past tense:- play → played- dance → danced- study → studied- jump → jumped- call → calledIrregular VerbsIrregular verbs, on the other hand, do not follow the same pattern as regular verbs when forming the past tense. Instead, they have unique forms for the past tense. For example, the base form of the verb "go" becomes "went" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "eat" becomes "ate" in the past tense. Here are some more examples of irregular verbs in the past tense:- be → was/were- have → had- do → did- see → saw- take → tookVerbs Ending in "-y"When a regular verb ends in "-y," the past tense is formed by changing the "-y" to "-ied." For example, the base form of the verb "cry" becomes "cried" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "try" becomes "tried" in the past tense.- cry → cried- try → tried- marry → married- carry → carried- study → studiedVerbs Ending in a Consonant + "-y"Verbs that end in a consonant followed by "-y" form the past tense by simply adding "-ed" to the base form of the verb. For example, the base form of the verb "carry" becomes "carried" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "study" becomes "studied" in the past tense.- carry → carried- study → studied- worry → worried- hurry → hurried- bury → buriedVerbs Ending in a Single Vowel + ConsonantWhen a regular verb ends in a single vowel followed by a consonant, the final consonant is doubled before adding "-ed" in the past tense. For example, the base form of the verb "stop" becomes "stopped" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "plan" becomes "planned" in the past tense.- stop → stopped- plan → planned- rob → robbed- admit → ad mitted- occur → occurredVerbs Ending in "-e"Verbs that end in "-e" form the past tense by simplyadding "-d" to the base form of the verb. For example, the base form of the verb "like" becomes "liked" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "dance" becomes "danced" in the past tense.- like → liked- dance → danced- bake → baked- escape → escaped- hope → hopedVerbs with Two Syllables Ending in a Consonant + "-y"Verbs with two syllables that end in a consonant followed by "-y" form the past tense by simply adding "-ed" to the base form of the verb. For example, the base form of the verb "copy" becomes "copied" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "study" becomes "studied" in the pasttense.- copy → copied- study → studied- marry → married- carry → carried- worry → worriedVerbs Ending in "-l"Verbs ending in "-l" after a single vowel double the "l" before adding "-ed" in the past tense. For example, the base form of the verb "travel" becomes "travelled" in the past tense, and the base form of the verb "cancel" becomes "cancelled" in the past tense.- travel → travelled- cancel → cancelled- control → controlled- level → le velled- signal → signalledPhrasal VerbsPhrasal verbs, which consist of a verb and one or more particles (such as adverbs or prepositions), form the past tense by changing the verb part. For example, the base form of the phrasal verb "break down" becomes "broke down" in the past tense, and the base form of the phrasal verb "take off" becomes "took off" in the past tense.- break down → broke down- take off → took off- look for → looked for- give up → gave up- pu t on → put onIn conclusion, the past tense in English is formed using various rules depending on the type of verb. Regular verbs add "-ed" to the base form, while irregular verbs have unique past tense forms. Verbs ending in "-y," a single vowel + consonant, or "-e" also follow specific rules for forming the past tense, as do verbs with two syllables ending in a consonant + "-y" and those ending in "-l." Phrasal verbs change the verb part to form the past tense. By understanding and applying these rules, English learners can effectively communicate about past actions, events, and states.。

D.Yoshi.2.What would be the best advice for Maria Luisa?A.Try to have a wide vocabulary.B.Develop a good knowledge of grammar.C.Read as many English books as possible.D.Make friends with English-speaking people.3.Why do people find it hard to understand Li Ping's English?A.She can't pronounce words in English correctly.B.She speaks at a very fast speed.C.Her grammar is terrible.D.Her voice is very low.BI ran into quite a few language problems while travelling with my family last summer. The most embarrassing was when my Mom apologized to the people we were staying with because her “pants were dirty”. They looked at her in amazement, not knowing how to react. You see, Mom had fallen over and gotten mud on her jeans. But in Bri-tain, “pants” means underpants (内裤) or knickers, not trousers as it does back home.Katie—From AmericaI went to stay with a friend on the west coast last summer. Her flat was on the first floor of a high-rise building so I got the lift up. Then I wandered round for ages looking for her flat but couldn't find it. Fed up and tired, I finally had to go out to find a phone box. She explained that her flat was on the first floor, which for me meant the ground floor.David—From Britain When I asked for the “restroom” in a big department store, people kept directing me to a room with seats where I could sit and “rest”. It took me years to get through to someone that I only wanted the toilet!Tom—From America Last summer we went on a two-week family touring holiday, so Dad hired a car over the Internet. This was an old vehicle (汽车) and there turned out to be lots of things wrong with it. When he phoned the hire company and tried to explain that the lock on the boot was broken, they thought he was talking about footwear! He had no idea their word for “boot” was “trunk”. In the end we went to a garage and just solved the problem.Mary—From Britain4.Hearing Katie's mother's words, Katie's friends were in surprise because .A.Katie's mother got mud on her jeansB.Katie's mother's underpants were dirtyC.they didn't know EnglishD.they mistook “pants” in American English for underpants5.David went out to find a phone box to .A.phone the police for helpB.phone his friend for helpC.tell his friend he couldn't go to visit herD.apologize for his being late6.When Tom asked for the “restroom”,the people around him thought .A.he wanted to go to a department storeB.he wanted the toiletC.he wanted to have a restD.he wanted a chairCWhen I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that th ey should stay at “bed and breakfast” houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.“We didn't stay at bed an d breakfast houses,” they said, “because we found that most families were away on holiday.”I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought “V ACANCIES” meant “holidays”,because the Span ish word for “holidays” is “vacaciones”. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said “V ACANCIES”,which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said ‘NO V ACANCIES’,because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday.But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word “DIVERSION” mean s fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word “DIVERSION” on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hole.English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said “Thank you” in French. I meant that I would like some more. However, to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out t hat “Thank you” in French means “No, thank you.”7.My Spanish friends wanted advice about .A.driving their car on English roadsB.going to England by carC.finding places to stay in EnglandD.learning English8.I suggested that they stay at “bed and breakfast houses” because .A.it would be much cheaper than staying in hotelsB.it would be convenient for them to have dinnerC.they would be able to practice their EnglishD.there would be no problem in finding accommodation there9.“NO V ACANCIES” in English means “”.A.free rooms B.no free roomsC.not away on holiday D.holidays10.When someone offered me more coffee and I said “Thank you” in French, I .A.wanted them to take the coffee pot awayB.didn't really want any more coffeeC.wanted to express my politenessD.really wanted some more coffee第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

完整版)虚拟语气语法归纳.虚拟语气语法归纳虚拟语气的使用主要体现在三个方面:虚拟条件句、虚拟语气在某些从句中的运用,以及虚拟语气的一些特殊用法。
虚拟条件句虚拟条件句是对现实条件的一种虚拟假设。
所假设的条件一般不符合事实或与事实相反,或在现实中发生的可能性极小。
根据时间的不同,虚拟条件句可分为三种:与现在事实相反的虚拟条件句、与过去事实相反的虚拟条件句,以及与将来事实相反的虚拟条件句。
具体情况请看下表:例句:1.表示与现在事实相反If I had enough money now。
I would lend it to you.If I were you。
I would tell him my true feelings.If I were a boy。
I would join the army.If she had time。
she would go with you.2.表示与过去事实相反If he had XXX your advice。
XXX't have made such a bad mistake.She would have come to enjoy the party if she hadn't been very busy.If he had XXX my advice。
he would have XXX.3.表示与将来事实相反I would go shopping with you if it were Sunday tomorrow.If he were given another chance to do it again。
he could XXX.If it were to rain tomorrow。
the football match would be postponed.1.虚拟条件句的倒装在虚拟条件句中,为了强调所假设条件的虚拟性,或突出说话人的一种主观愿望,虚拟条件句可用倒装结构。
