1、Unit 1 Tales of the unexplained Grammar and UsagePresent perfect tense1. Use different methods to present the present perfect tense. Here are some ideas:1) Please look at the screen. Pay attention to the different forms of the verbs: 2) Lets complete the following
2、 sentences, in which the predicate part is missing. We_(study) English for about five years. They_(live) in the south since their daughter was born. I_ (read) your article three times. It's we
3、ll written. The student_(finish) her homework already. Eric_(go) back to his hometown today. Answers: have studied have
4、 lived have read has finished has gone3) Read the following sentences and point out what tense or tenses are used in them and the reasons why they are used. We have studied English for about five years. We began to study it five
5、 years ago. They moved to the south in 1990 and have lived there since then.The student is doing her homework. She hasn't finished it yet.Eric left home last year and has just come back.2. We may wonder why some verbs can't be used in the present perfect tense. Lets read th
6、e following sentences, and try to find different usages of some verbs. Justin has been away from home for several days. He disappeared last Friday. They bought this house three years ago and they have lived here since then.My brother went to see my grandpa last week. He has visited him three times t
7、his month. So you see when an action happens over a period of time that began in the past and continues to the present, the present perfect tense is often used. When an action happened at a definite time in the past, the past simple tense is often used.3. Read Points 1 and 2 on page 8 to make sure w
8、hy the present perfect tense is used in these two sentences. 4. Go over Point 3 on page 8 to learn what time expressions can be used with the present perfect tense. Pay attention to the different usages between alrea
9、dy and yet, or for and since.5. Read Point 4 on page 8 to learn that the present perfect tense can be used in a situation where the action was completed only a moment ago. In this case, just is used.6. Go over Points 5 and 6 on page 8 and note that when we want to express a repeated action, we use t
10、he present perfect tense with the time expressions once/twice/three times . 7. Lets read the diary entry and then complete it using the correct forms of the verbs in brackets.Answers: (2) saw (3) has visited (4) loves (5) h
11、asn't visited (6) has swum (7) has never met (8) has dived (9) has found (10) hasn't found (11) Has, been Summary of The Present Perfect tense:1.We use the present perfect tense to talk about things that
12、happened in the recent past, but are connected to the present.Daniel has lived(live) in Beijing since he came to China.(Connection with the past: Daniel came to China. Connection with the present: Daniel is living in China.) 2.We use the present perfect tense to talk about something that s
13、tarted in the past, and is still happening now. came has lived
14、0; _
15、; past now future 3.We use the present perfect tense to talk about actions that were completed on
16、ly a short time ago. I went to Egypt in 1986. I went to Egypt in 2004.I have been (be) to Egypt twice.4.We can also use the present perfect tense for repeated actions.Has it ever snowed(snow) in Hong Kong?No, it has never snowed(snow) there.5.We use the present perfect tense when the exact tim
17、e of an action is not clear or important. We use it with time expressions such as: already, ever, for, just, lately, never, recently, since, yetNotes:1. We use already for affirmative statements and yet for negative statements and interrogative sentences.2.&
18、#160; We use for + a period of time and since + a point of time.3. Structures connected with the present perfect tense:1) It is (has been) +a period of time +since-clause.2) This (That/It) is the first (second) time + that-clause
19、; (present perfect tense).3) This (That/It) is the only ) + that-clause (present perfect tense).4) This (That/It) is the best/ finest /most interesting + that-clause ResourcesThe present perfect-Three hours ago she baked a cake. And since then lets see-Shes already made the be
20、ds, written a letter, gone shopping, and cooked dinner.-And now shes just answered the telephone for the fifth time. English has a verb tense, the present perfect, which serves to denote past happenings that are relevant to, or that still have an effect at, the moment of speaking. This tense, f
21、ormed with the present of have plus a past participle (answered, cooked, gone, written, made, and so on), is really a combination of present and past together. Notice the kinds of adverbs and adverbial phrases that are closely associated with the present perfect. Hes been a success now, I would
22、 say, since 1990.And now hes just decided to enter politics. The simple past, denoting past happenings that are localized in the past, contrasts sharply with the present perfect, as can be seen best by the kinds of “time” adverbials that may be used with one tense but not with the other.Simple
23、Past Present Perfectyesterday &
24、#160; since thenan hour ago
25、60; so farI learned a new song last night Ive learned another nowon Monday

31、160; of the song and not on the previous act of learning it.) Therefore, do not say things like “Ive learned a new song yesterday”, which is a very common mistake.The speaker chooses among these and
32、 other tenses in part according to how he feels himself related to the event.Present perfect continuous tenseHere we will look at two situations in which the present perfect continuous tense is used. Note how the tense is formed and try to understand how the tense is used in sentences. We will pract
33、ise forming verbs in this tense and complete sentences.1. We sometimes use the present perfect continuous tense to talk about actions that started in the past and are still continuing, or have just finished but are still connected to the present in some way. For example,I've been waiting for an
34、hour and he still hasn't turned up.I'm so sorry I'm late. Have you been waiting long?2. Go over Points 1 and 2 on page 9 to understand this tense better.3. Go over Point 3 to see how the tense is formed.4. Fill in the missing words. Pay attention to the verb form in the example given in
35、the first picture (all the verb forms here are the present perfect continuous tense, except for the one in Sentence 5). It is a trap and does not require the present perfect continuous tense.Answers:(2) have been talking (3) have been taking (4) have been watching
36、 (5) have seen (6) have been writing5. Do with Part C1 on page 82 in Workbook to become familiar with the present perfect tense and the present perfect continuous tense. Present perfect or present perfect continuous?1. Go over Point I on page 10 t
37、o identify why the two different tenses are used in the two sentences.In the first sentence, the present perfect tense is used, which means that the action read isn't continuing, and Li Jia knows what the book is about now. In the second sentence, the present perfect continuous tense is used, wh
38、ich means that the action read is still continuing.2. Go over Point 2 on page 10. Note that the present perfect continuous tense can't be used with time expressions such as twice or how many times, because in this tense the action is continuous, not stopped and then started again.3. Go over Poin
39、t 3 on page 10 to define the meaning of a state verb or an action verb. Note that a state verb doesn't mean an action, so it can't be used in a continuous tense.4. Note that the present perfect continuous tense can't be used when the words always, never, yet, already or ever are used in
40、a sentence.5. Finish the two exercises on page 11.Answers:A (1) heard (2)been doing (3) been researching (4) been doing (5) started (6) done (7) read (8) found (9) started (10) been doing (11) been maki

43、ent figured out how she does it all.-I havent either, and Ive been trying now for ten years. The present perfect tense, like the simple present and the simple past, has a continuous form as well. The effect of the present perfect continuous is to make past happenings continuous throughout a tim
44、e span extending up to the present:Simple Past: I learned a new song (three hours ago).
45、160; now
46、0; Hours
47、0; then × then(past)

53、 (future) (past event accomplished, present relevance)Present Perfect Continuous: Ive been learning still another now (for the past hour).
54、 now
55、160; Hours
56、160; then ×
57、160; then(past) (future) (past event not necessarily accomplished, present relevance, possibly still going on at th
58、e moment of speaking)Verbs denoting action that can only be momentary or instantaneous (knock, hit, sneeze, interrupt, introducing, and so on) can also occur in the continuous. The meaning, however, is then one of repetition:Youve been interrupting me now ( for the past five minutes).
59、60; now then × then(past)
60、 (future) Although this class of verbs also includes arrive, leave, come, go, and so on, the “repetition” with the verbs just mentioned cannot be effected by one person alone: The guests haven been arriving now for an hour.
61、But not “The guest has been arriving now for an hour.ConsolidationI. Relative items in recent years college entrance examinations:1. My friend, who _ on the International Olympic Committee all his life, is retiring next month. (2006浙江) A. served
