Question:现在进行时和一般现在时在用法上有什么区别呢?

Answer:当然有区别。今天就说说现在进行时和一般现在时的区别。

现在进行时 He’s smoking.

还是一般现在时:He smokes?

I. 表示正在进行的还是反复发生的动作?

Reading I

Liz Rix is working for a year on a Greenpeace ship in the Mediterranean. They’re checking pollution levels. Liz is writing a letter to her mother. '… I’m writing this letter in my cabin. The sea’s quite rough at the moment and I’m finding it difficult to write! I usually get about two hours’ free time a day, and I often write letters or read a book (or I sometimes don’t do anything at all - I just sleep!) I’m reading a book about the history of Greenpeace at the moment. Greenpeace workers come from all over the world, but, fortunately, everybody on this ship speaks English…’

1.现在进行时表示说话时正在进行的动作。

  I’m writing this letter in my cabin.

  I’m finding it difficult to write.

2. 现在进行时也表示现阶段的动作或状态,此动作或状态并非在说话时进行。

  I’m reading a book about Greenpeace at the moment.( 不是 I read a book)

 (Liz 没有完成她的书;她还在读,但不是现在。现在她正在写信)

 3 一般现在时表示反复的动作或规律性的状态。常和下列词连用:always, often, usually, sometimes, never .(always 的现在进行时则有其他意义,见上期) 

   I usually get two hours’ free time a day ( 不是 I’m getting)

   I often write letters or read. I sometimes don’t do anything at all.

 4. 一般现在时也用来表示一种状态或一个普遍事实。

Everybody on the ship speaks English.(is speaking)

Greenpeace workers come from all over the world.

练习I   选择动词的正确形式填空:

                   1. Liz (writes/ is writing) a letter.

                   2. In her free time she (reads/ is reading) a lot.

                    3. Greenpeace workers (come/are coming) from all over the world.

II. 表示现阶段的动作或状态还是更持久的动作或状态?

Reading II 

  '… At the moment, I’m working with Thor , a Norwegian marine biologist. We’re

   taking water samples and analyzing them. Thor works at Oslo University, but he’s working for Greenpeace for a year…’

            1. 现在进行时表示现阶段的动作或状态。

At the moment, I’m working with Thor .

(Liz 可能不久在船上会有一个不同的工作)

2 一般现在时表示更持久的动作或状态。比较:

Thor works at Oslo University.(一般现在时) (这是他永久工作)

He’s working for Greenpeace for a year. (现在进行时) (这是他的临时工作,只一年)

        练习II   回答问题:

          1. What’s Thor’s permanent’s job?  He… at Oslo University.

         2. What’s Liz’s present job on the ship?  She … Thor .

III. 不用于进行时的动词

Reading III

      '… I think this is the best job I’ve ever had. I want to do it for another year. I like the people on the ship and I know we’re doing a useful job. I love life at sea. I’m looking really healthy. The ship has very little fresh water and I’m being extravagant at the moment. – washing three times a day! I’d like a shower, but the ship doesn’t have showers. But I’m having a great time. I’ll finish my letter now because I don’t feel very well. The ship’s rolling a lot. In fact, I’m feeling a bit sick. I’m thinking of you. Love. Liz.’

   1. 有些动词描述一种状态(一种保持不变的状态)而不是一个动作。这些动词一般不用于进行时,如:believe, belong, contain, exist, forget, hate, hear, know, like, love, mean, need, own, prefer, realize, remember, seem, suppose, understand, want. (参见上期)

I want to stay for another year. ( NOT I’m wanting)

I like the people. (NOT I’m liking the people)

I know we’re doing a useful job.(NOT I’m knowing)

     2.  有些动词 ( think, have, be, see, smell, taste) 能够描述一种状态也能描述一个动作。当动词表示动作时可以用进行时态。

        I think this is a great job. ( I think=I believe=状态)

        I’m thinking of you(thoughts of you are gong through my mind.=动作)

        The ship doesn’t have showers.(=状态,不是isn’t having)

       I’m having a great time. (=动作,I’m doing a lot of great things )

       I’m extravagant. (=状态,Describing the person’s character描写一个人的性格)

       I’m being extravagant.(= 动作,I’m doing an extravagant thing.)

    3 动词 look (=someone’s appearance 某人的外貌) feel =sensations感觉),hurt可以用于一般现在时或现在进行时中,意思一样。

        I’m looking really healthy. ( I look really healthy)

        I don’t feel well at the moment. ( I’m not feeling well.)

            练习III.   完成句子: 

       1 Liz (know) she’s doing a useful job.

       2 The ship ( not have) a lot of fresh water.

       3 Liz (feel) a bit sick at the moment.
