  課文詳註 Further notes on the text

car, 乘汽車。

by(乘坐)表示"乘坐(某種交通工具)",但它必須與動詞連用。表交通工具的名詞前不加冠詞:

by boat 乘船

by bus 乘公共汽車

by plane 乘飛機

by sea 乘船

foot, 步行。

  語法 Grammar in use

一般現在時與現在進行時

一般現在時表示一般的動作或不斷重複發生的動作;現在進行時表示說話時正在發生的動作,動作還沒有完成。簡單圖示如下:

一般現在時表示永久的情況;進行時表示暫時的情況。請比較:

Jane works very hard most of the time.

簡大多工作努力。

Jane is working hard today.

簡今天工作很努力。

His parents live in Rome.

他父母住在羅馬。

He’s living with some friends now.

他現在與一些朋友們住在一起。

進行時只用於表示動作或偶爾發生的事件(We are eating, it is raining等等)。有些動詞(如 like, want, know等)不是動作動詞,因此不能用進行時態,如不能說 I am knowing或We are liking,而只能說 I know或 We like。

一般現在時表達某個習慣性動作,通常與時間頻度副詞連用,如 usually, always, often, sometimes, never等;現在進行時表示此時此刻正在進行的動作,一般與 now, at the moment, today, this afternoon, this evening, tonight等連用。如:

We usually watch television at night. But we are listening to the stereo tonight.

我們通常晚上看電視。但是今晚我們正在聽立體聲節目。
