複合測試:        有的句子是現在式有的是現在進行式

1.我愛你 I love you.(現在式) Love 是種狀態而非動作 ~~

2.她們正在唱歌         They are singing.(動作~~現在進行式)

3.我是一各老師         I am a teacher. (狀況而非動作)

4.你的姐姐在騎腳踏車   Your elder sister is riding her bicycle now. 

5.我正在洗澡           I am taking a bath.

                 過去式

              簡單說就是: 過去已經發生的事

先擺放錯誤時態

Ex: I go to school yesterday.(X)

Ex: My mother comes to see me last month.(X)

正確應為  

Ex: I went to school yesterday. (X)

Ex: My mother came to see me last month.(X)

            過去進行式

                  過去Verb 動詞+ V-ing 

       簡單說過去進行式和現在進行式很類似只差異在時態

但重點是過去進行式比較少單獨使用通常都和另一句子一起用也因此通常句子會出現一句是過去式另一句是過去進行式~~

Ex:當火車停下的時候他正在看報

    He was reading a newspaper when the train stopped.

Ex:當我爸爸打電話給我的時候我正在刷牙

    I was brushing my teeth when my father called me.

Ex: 當這隻貓走進來的時候這隻狗正在睡覺

   That dog was sleeping when the cat came in
