教学建议二

过去将来时态

一、过去将来时的构成：

would+动词原形或was/ were going to+动词原形

如：The farmers didn’t know whether they would have a good harvest.农民们不知道他们是否会有一个好收成。

Li Mei said that she was going to visit her grandma in the country the next Sunday.李梅说下星期天要去看望她乡下的祖母。

二、过去将来时的用法：

过去将来时表示从过去某个时间看将来要看发生的动作或存在的状态。具体分为：

1.主句为过去时，宾语从句常表示将要发生的事情。如：

Nobody knew what would happen after a hundred years. 没有人知道一百年之后将会发生什么事。

We didn’t know whether she was going to speak at the meeting. 我们不知道她是否准备在会上发言。

2.在叙述过去的事情或事情发生的经过时，用过去将来时表示在当时看将来会发生的事。如：

It was a Saturday afternoon. A young man named George had just left school. He was going to start to work the following week, so he decided to buy some new clothes and a new pair of shoes.一个星期六的下午，一位名叫乔治的年轻人刚离开学校。因为他准备下周开始工作，所以，决定买些新衣服和一双新鞋子。

3.过去将来时态一般不能单独使用。因为它表示过去和将来双重的时态概念，必须有另一个时态作为比较或衬托。但在一定的上下文中，也可单独使用。例如：

That afternoon I was on my way home after three years of absence. My whole family would all come out to welcome me back, and I should see my aged and long-de-parted parents very soon.

那天下午，我在离别三年之后踏上了回家的路。我的全家都会出来迎接我，不久我即将见到我那分别已久的年迈父母。
