■英语中瞬间动词不能与“段”时间状语连用,表达时应将其替换为状态动词或延续性动词。如:
(1) I have borrowed the book for two weeks. (误)
正:I have kept the book for two weeks.
析:borrow为瞬间动词。此处要使用延续性动词keep。
(2) My brother has joined the Army for more than two years. (误)
正:My brother has been in the Army for more than two years.
或:My brother joined the Army more than two years ago.
(3) Henry lent me a book and he told me that I could borrow it for a week. (误)
正:Henry lent me a book and he told me that I could keep it for a week.
■瞬间动词与till或until引导的时间状语从句或构成的短语连用时,应使用否定形式,否则应使用状态动词或延续性动词。如:
(1) He went to bed until eleven o’clock. (误)
正:He didn’t go to bed until eleven o’clock.
(2) He got married until he was thirty years old. (误)
正:He didn’t get married until he was thirty years old.
或:He stayed single until he was thirty years old. (stay为状态动词)
(3) He fell asleep until 9 o’clock the next morning. (误)
正:He slept until 9 o’clock the next morning.
■非延续性动词不能用于由从属连词 while引导的时间状语从句中。如:
While I came into the classroom,Mary was reading. (误)
正:When I came into the classroom,Mary was reading.
