    最常用時態(tài)
    書面表達還需要考生準確地運用英語最基本的五個時態(tài),如果時態(tài)運用自如,考生就能夠應對各種時間條件的文章,因此,對于時態(tài)掌握不太好的考生,平時可以進行五種基本時態(tài)的造句訓練。
    英文最常用的時態(tài)有五個:一般現(xiàn)在時;現(xiàn)在進行時;一般過去時;一般將來時和現(xiàn)在完成時。
    1. 一般現(xiàn)在時:用動詞原型表示,但單數(shù)第三人稱后要加-s,一般現(xiàn)在時表示經(jīng)常性或習慣性的動作。
    【例句】We always care for each other and help each other。
    2. 現(xiàn)在進行時:用助動詞be的人稱形式加現(xiàn)在分詞構成,主要表示現(xiàn)在或現(xiàn)在這一階段正在進行的動作。
    【例句】Where are they having the basket-ball match?
