(= I have seen the film already.) 我看过这部电影。   感官动词可用于进行时态吗：   表示有意识地使用感官的动词如gaze, listen, look (at), observe (=watch), stare, watch等可用于各种进行时态。如：   She was gazing at him with a soft, contented smile on her face. 她注视着他，脸上带着温柔而满足的微笑。   Anybody who’s listening will get the drift of what he was saying. 任何一个在专心听的人都会领悟他所说的大意。   We’ve been looking at houses but haven’t found one we like yet. 我们一直在看房子，但还没有找到一所我们喜欢的。   He’d been observing her the whole trip. 他整个旅途中都在观察她。   The entire family was staring at him, waiting for him to speak. 全家人都盯着他，等着他说话。   The police have been watching the house for three days. 警察连续3天在监视那所房子。
