*英语时态试题及解析：
【2011浙江宁波】30. — Amy, I called you yesterday evening, but nobody answered the phone.
— Oh, I _________ a walk with my mother at that time.
A. take B. took C. am taking D. was taking
答案：D
【解析】动词时态。问句中的yesterday evening是一般过去时时间状语，而答语中的at that time是指打电话的那时间，表示过去正在发生的事情，所以应用过去进行时。选D。
【江西省2011】36. I'm now in New York with my friend Jenny. We_________ by plane on Monday.
A. arrive B. arrived C. are arriving D. will arrive
【答案】B
【解析】时态考察 句意为“我现在在纽约。”可知“星期一乘飞机来的。”是一般过去时。
【2011.扬州】—When ______ you ______ reading Jane Eyre?
—It’s hard to say. I’m busy recently.
A. did; finish B. have; finished C. will; finish D. do; finish
答案：C
【解析】考查时态。根据句意：你什么时间读完这本书?很难说，最近我很忙。指的是将来的某个时间读完书。
【2011.铜仁】28.If it ________ this Saturday, we ________ for a picnic.
A. won’t rain; shall go B. doesn’t rain; will go C. isn’t rain; go D. doesn’t rain; go
答案：B
【解析】考查时态。在if引导的条件状语从句中，如果主句和从句发生的动作都在将来时间，从句用一般现在时表将来。故选B。
【2011肇庆】26. You are too late. The film ______ since half an hour ago.
A、has begun B. has been on C. began
答案：B
【解析】考查动词时态。根据since half an hour ago，句中应是现在完成时，排除C。A中是begin的过去分词，begin为短暂性动作，不可与表示一段时间的状语连用。
一般过去时典型考题：
1. If you don’t like the drink you ______ just leave it and try a different one.
A. ordered B. are ordering C. will order D. had ordered
解析：答案选 A。句子的意思是：如果你不喜欢你点的饮料，把它放在一边，另外试一种。根据此句意可知，“点饮料”已经发生了，否则怎么知道自己不喜欢呢?所以空格处用一般过去时。又如：
I accelerated and left the other cars behind. 我加速行驶，把其他的车子抛在后面。
He asked her to marry him and she accepted him. 他向她求婚，她同意了。
2. —Have you known Dr Jackson for a long time?
—Yes, since she ______ the Chinese Society.
A. has joined B. joins C. had joined D. joined
解析：答案选 D。since she join the Chinese Society为I have known Dr. Jackson since she join the Chinese Society之省略。连词since所搭配的时态通常是：主句用现在完成时，从句用一般过去时。
现在进行时的用法：
表示临时性：现在进行时除表示说话时正在进行的动作之外，还可表示在短期内临时进行的动作或存在的情况，这种情况通常不会长期如此，并且在说话时刻也不一定正在进行。如：
Don’t take that ladder away. Your father’s using it. 别把梯子拿起，你父亲在用哩。
The professor is typing his own letters while his secretary is ill. 秘书生病时，教授自己打他的信。
过去进行时的用法：
1. 表示在过去某一时刻或某一阶段正在发生的动作。如：
I was having a shower at that time. 那时我正冲澡。
2. 表示某个短暂性动作发生的背景。如：
I was reading the newspaper when the doorbell rang. 我正在看报，突然门铃响了。
3. 过去进行时在语境中的运用。如：
I waved to her but she wasn’t looking. 我向她挥手但她没往这边瞧。
She didn’t hear the doorbell. She was listening to the radio. 她没听见门铃响，她在听收音机。
注：与always, forever, frequently等副词连用，可表示某种感情色彩。如：
She was forever complaining. 她老是抱怨。(厌烦)
She was always thinking of others. 她老是想到别人。(赞扬)
