瞬间性动词在下列几种情况下可以与段时间状语连用: 一、瞬间性动词表示延续性词义时 有些瞬间性动词可以表示延续性词义,这时它们就可以与段时间状语连用了。例如: I'm going away for a few days. 我要出去几天。(go away 表示travel) I went to Paris for two weeks. 我去了巴黎两个星期。(go to表示 visit) We go to the seaside for a week every August. 我们每年八月都要到海滨度过一个星期。(go 表示travel) She left me waiting in the rain for an hour. 她让我在雨里等了一个小时。(leave表示cause sb. / sth. to be or remain in a particular state or position,即"使某人或某物处于某一特定的状态"。) 二、瞬间性动词的否定形式 瞬间性动词的否定形式可以表示某一状态,这时,可以与段时间状语连用。例如: Don't get off until the bus stops. 等车停了再下车。(停车之前要处于呆在车上的状态。) 三、瞬间性动词的被动结构 "be+瞬间性动词的过去分词"即系表结构也可以表示状态,因此也可以与段时间状语连用。例如: They have been married for ten years. 他们结婚已经十年了。 The book has been lost for a week.那书已经丢了一周了。 当要表达瞬间性动作发生之后一段时间的概念时,可以有多种不同的表达方式。试比较: 汤姆到了三十分钟了。 方法1:Tom has been here for 30 minutes. 方法2:It's 30 minutes since Tom arrived. 方法3:Tom got here 30 minutes ago. 艾丽丝直到她妈妈回来了才睡觉。 方法1: Alice didn't go to bed until her mother came back. 方法2: Alice stayed up until her mother came back. 你们认识多长时间了? 方法1: How long have you known each other? 方法2: How long ago did you get to know each other? 方法3: How long is it since you got to know each other?
