短暂性动词,延续性动词与现在完成时 姓名:_________
短暂性动词(终止性动词),是指动作一旦发生就很快就结束。它不能和一段时
间连用。这类动词有:go, come, arrive, leave, begin, start, join, marry 等;短暂性动词的肯定式不能与表示一段时间的for或since或how long等状语连用。但是,在否定句中,短暂性动词可以和表示一段时间的状语连用。
延续性动词 是指动作发生后还可以延续一段时间或者相当长的一段时间。如:live, work, study, learn, sleep等,延续性动词可以和表示一段的时间状语连用。
值得注意的是,表示一段时间的状语除了“for+一段时间”外,还有since+n./从句(时间点),since+时间段+ago,疑问词how long ,in the past+时间段,all these+
时间段,from?to(时间点)以及till/until+n./句子等等。
例如:
1.这位老人已经死了十年了。 The old man has died for ten years.(× )(die“死”短暂性动词,不能与for+一段时间连用)
The old man has been dead for ten years/since 10 years ago.(√)
(die→be dead,die是短暂性动词,表示死的动作,这个动作很快就结束了,变成了表示状态的be dead,dead是die 的形容词,表示死了的状态,可以延续)
2.我买了这块手表五年了。 I have bought this watch for five years.(× )(buy“买”短暂性动词,不能与for+一段时间连用)I have had this watch for five years/since 5 years ago. (√)
(buy→have,buy这个动作在付完钱已经结束了,买完后是拥有have的状态,have可以延续)
3.我离开家乡已十年了。
I have left hometown for 10 years.(×)(leave“离开”短暂性动词,不能与for+一段时间连用) I have been away from hometown for 10 years.(√)
(leave—be away,leave这个动作在走了的时候已经结束了,走了以后,是我不在这里的状态,be away表示不在,离开的状态,可以延续)
但在否定句中,短暂性动词可以与时间段连用。 如:I haven’t bought the bike for a year. 我买这辆自行车还不到一年。 She hasn’t come here for an hour. 她来这儿还没有一个小时。

如果短暂性动词与表示一段时间的时间状语连用,必须将短暂性动词改为延续性动词。现归纳总结一下由非延续性动词到延续性动词的转换:
buy / get →have, borrow → keep,have die →be dead finish →be over,
Close→ be closed leave →be away (from) open →be open marry→be married fall asleep → be asleep fall (get) ill→be ill go out →be out get up→ be up put on →wear/be on Move to→live in
come/go/become →be go to school→be in school/be a student begin/start →be on begin to study→study
Get to know→ know wake/wake up →be awake Lose/die/sell/leave→ be gone catch/get a cold →have a cold
join /take part in →be in/be a member of come/arrive/reach/get to→be in return to/come back to/go back to→be back(to)
come(arrive,reach,get) here/go (arrive,reach,get) there→be here (there) 练习:
一、找出下列句子中的短暂性动词和对应句子中的延续性动词。
