综合教程4Unit1Nevergivein,never,（课堂PPT）

1、1Unit 1 Never give in, never, never, neverLanguage work21. Since的用法How long is it since you lived in Shanghai?离开（没住在）上海多久了？ It is half a month since he was a League member.他退团（不当团员）半个月了。 Its been quite some time since I was last in London.我离开伦敦已很长时间了。 比较：He has written to me frequently since I was i

2、ll.自从我病愈以来，他屡次给我写信。（从句谓语为状态动词） He has written to me frequently since I fell ill.自从我生病以来，他就屡次给我写信。（从句谓语为终止性动词） 3Since we have owned a car, we have gone camping every year.自从我们自己有了汽车，我们每年都去野营。 试比较：1. Since Ive been at this school, we have had three headmasters.自从我到这所学校，我们已换了三个校长了。 Since I was at this

3、school, they have had three headmasters.自从我离开这所学校，他们已换了三个校长了。 2.He has never been to see me since I have been ill. 自从我生病以来，他从未来看过我。 He has never been to see me since I was ill. 自从我病愈以来，他从未来看过我。 4由此可见，since引导的从句持续动词的一般过去时和现在完成时所表示的意思恰好相反。换言之，前者以肯定的语法形式反映着否定的逻辑内容，而后者的形式与内容是一致的。 至于It is +一段时间+since的句型与

4、It has been +一段时间+since意思相同。前者是规范说法，后者是口语说法。 应注意的是，在这种结构中，since引导的从句绝对不能用否定式的谓语动词来表示否定意义，下面两句都错了： It is a long time since he didnt study English. Its two months since you didnt come to see me. 正确的说法为： Its a long time since he studied English 他好久没学英语了。 You havent come to see me for two months. 你有两个月没
