1）一般过去时表示过去某时发生的动作或单纯叙述过去的事情,强调动作；现在完成时为过去发生的,强调过去的事情对现在的影响,强调的是影响.

共同的时间状语：this morning, tonight, this April, now, already, recently, lately 等.

一般过去时常用的非持续性动词有come, go, leave, start, die, finish, become, get married等.例如：
I saw this film yesterday. （强调看的动作发生过了）
I have seen this film. （强调对现在的影响,电影的内容已经知道了）

11.11 用于现在完成时的句型
1）It is the first / second time. that…结构中的从句部分,用现在完成时.例如：

典型例题
（1） ---Do you know our town at all?
---No, this is the first time I ___ here.
A. was B. have been C. came D. am coming

（2） ---Have you ____ been to our town before?
---No, it's the first time I ___ here.
A. even, come B. even, have come C. ever, come D. ever, have come
答案D. ever意为曾经或无论何时,反意词为never,此两词常用于完成时.
注意：非延续性动词的否定形式可以与表示延续时间的状语连用.即动作不发生的状态是可以持续的.
（错）I have received his letter for a month.
（对）I haven't received his letter for almost a month.

11.12 比较since和for
Since 用来说明动作起始时间,for用来说明动作延续时间长度.例如：
I have lived here for more than twenty years.我住在这儿二十多年了.
I have lived here since I was born. 我从出生起就住在这儿了.
注意：并非有for 作为时间状语的句子都用现在完成时.
I worked here for more than twenty years. （我现在已不在这里工作.）
I have worked here for many years.（现在我仍在这里工作.）
注意：用句型转换的方法,很容易排除非延续动词在有for/since结构的完成时中的误用.
1）（对） Tom has studied Russian for three years. = Tom began to study Russian three years ago, and is still studying it now.
2）（错） Harry has got married for six years. = Harry began to get married six years ago, and is still getting married now.
显然,第二句不对,它应改为 Harry got married six years ago. 或 Harry has been married for six years.

He has completed the work. 他已完成了那项工作. （表结果）
I've known him since then. 我从那时起就认识他了.（表经历）
2） 用于till / until从句的差异

He slept until ten o'clock. 他一直睡到10点.

A. had met B. have met C. met D. meet
