2018年普通專升本英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法：過去完成時(shí)和過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)的區(qū)別

I (or You，He，John，They，Those men) had been studying.

過去完成進(jìn)行時(shí)與過去完成時(shí)的用法很相近，它通常表示一個(gè)持續(xù)到過去某時(shí)的動(dòng)作：

He had been waiting for two weeks. He was still waiting.(有一個(gè)表示一段時(shí)間的狀語(yǔ))

Up to that time he had been translating those books.(He was still translating at “that time”.)

He had been writing the letter till two o'clock.

He was now thirty years old.He had been gambling since he was ten.(He was still gambling at thirty.)

He had been standing there in the sun.(沒有時(shí)間狀語(yǔ))

He had been thinking about his marriage.

不過這個(gè)時(shí)態(tài)并不一定表示這個(gè)過去動(dòng)作將持續(xù)下去：

He came back at seven.He had been waiting for her two hours.(At seven he did not wait any more.)

He stopped swimming.He had been swimming for the last three hours.

另一方面，這個(gè)時(shí)態(tài)也和現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)一樣，也可有一些特別的含義：

1)尚未完成：

He had been writing the novel.(He had not finished it yet.)

2)企圖：

He had been studying the meaning of this proverb.(He was trying to study it.)

3)未得結(jié)果：

We had been studying what our enemy had said.(But we were not able to understand it.)

4)最近情況：

He had been quarrelling with his wife.(lately)

5)反復(fù)動(dòng)作：

He had been asking me the same question.(Many times)

6)情緒：

What had he been doing?(不耐煩)

這個(gè)時(shí)態(tài)很少用在否定句中，而多以過去完成時(shí)代替：

He had not practised English for many years.(普通說法)

He had not been practising English for many years.(少見)

這個(gè)時(shí)態(tài)還可用在said，supposed等引起的間接引語(yǔ)中，代替現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)：

He said，“I have been speaking to John.”= He said that he had been speaking to John.

He thought，“She was watching me when I passed.”= He thought that she had been watching him when he had passed.
