第一篇:英语面试:时态、文化、才能三合一
应聘者在参加英语面试前大都作过充分的语言知识的准备与练习。那么在众多的英语语法规则中为什么要单独强调时态的运用呢?其一是因为由于和汉语的表达习惯不同(汉语中动词没有时态变化),这是一个口语中极其常见的错误。但同时来说,时态又是比较基本的语法点,一旦用错,会让面试官对面试者的英语能力产生质疑。其二是因为在面试过程中,往往会涉及到很多关于个人经历,教育背景,工作经验,职业规划等方面的问题,因此在表述某件事情或是某个想法的时候,一定要注意配合正确的时态,否则就会造成差之毫厘,失之千里的后果。例如:你已经参加过某项专业技能培训与你正在参加或计划参加就是完全不同的。
技巧二:尊重个人及文化差异
任何面试都带有一定程度的主观性。也就是说面试官是否欣赏你也可能成为最后的决定性因素。因此在英语面试的过程中,应当尽量避免由于对英语语言的驾驭能力不足,而引发的不敬甚至冒犯。
具体而言,主要有两种做法要特别注意避免。首先是要避免使用过于生僻的单词,或是地方俚语之类接受群体相对比较小的表达方式。因为这种表达方式很有可能造成听者的困惑与曲解。
其次则是要避免过多,过于主观地谈及宗教文化或时事政治方面的问题。不少面试者出于第一项提到的急于展示英语水平的目的,或是想给面试官留下深刻印象的目的,常常会犯这个错误。
在英语面试中,面试官很有可能来自不同的国家与地区,有一定的个人倾向。因此作为面试者,在不了解情况的状态下,如果谈到此类话题,谨慎而有节制的发言才是上上策。
技巧三:以英语为载体,展示工作才能
一般而言,对于非英语专业要求的工作,面试常常主要是英语口试形式。但是要注意的是这与英语考试的口试不同,面试人员通常是由公司的人事主管,应聘部门主管或公司高层组成,他们更关心和器重的是你的专业知识和工作能力,而英语此时只是一种交流工具,或者说是你要展示的众多技能中的一种,因此要切忌为说英语而说英语,有些人就怕自己的英语减分,为了希望给面试官留下英语水平高的印象,常常会大量的使用事先准备好的花哨的词汇及句式,而真正针对面试官所提问题的、与工作有关的个人见解却很少,内容空泛,逻辑混乱。最后除了得到一句英语不错的夸奖之外,恐怕很难有理想的收获。因为在漂亮英语和聪明头脑之间,面试官总是会选择后者的。
以上所谈三点技巧,相信你已经熟记于心了。此外别忘了,任何面试中,整洁的衣着,大方的仪态一定是会助你一臂之力的。

第三篇:英语时态总结
英语时态总结
时态(Tense)是表示行为、动作和状态在各种时间条件下的动词形式。因此,当我们说时态结构的时候,指的是相应时态下的动词形式。
英语时态分为16种:一般现在、一般过去、一般将来、过去将来时,以及这四者的进行时、完成时和完成进行时。在这里,我们重点讲解一下最常见的11种时态的用法和注意事项。
1.一般现在时:小学就开始学这个,大家都会吧,有几点强调一下我们就走。
A)表示现在发生的动作、情况、状态和特征。If it is not too much trouble, I would like a cup of tea.B)习惯用语:这个要在平时自己积累,因为习语太多,我不做过多解释。
Ie: Believe it or not, his discovery had created a stir in scientific circles.口语中常说believe it or not,意思是:“信不信由你”,“我说的是真的”。believe it or not是一个固定说法,相当一个插入语,短语中的believe没有词形变化。这点要注意,以后会教你们动名词的用法,到时候会牵涉到主语的问题。
C)经常性、习惯性动作。
Ie:He always helps others.(他总是帮助别人。)
D)客观事实和普遍真理。尤其要注意,如果前后文不是一般现在时,则无法保持主句、从句时态一致.ex: He said that the sun rises in the east.这个句子要注意,到了以后的定语从句经常会有这样的问题,具体细节到 时候在说,不过你们要先有这样的概念:客观事实无论谓语的时态是什么都用一般现在时。
E)表示一个按规定、计划或安排要发生的动作,(仅限于某些表示“来、去、动、停、开始、结束、继续”等的动词)可以与表示未来时间的状语搭配使用。常见的用法是:飞机、火车、轮船、汽车等定期定点运行的交通方式。
ex: When does the plan leave?这个句子注意一下,就是这么用的,有人会注意到这样的问题: The plane leaves at 3 o’clock this afternoon.为什么不用将来时,对了,很奇怪,但就是这么用的。
F)在时间和条件状语从句里经常用一般现在(有时也用现在完成时)表示将来事情。
Ie: When you finish the report, I will have waited for 3 hours.(完成时,往下看会出现)
2.现在进行时(be doing)的用法:上了初一就教这个吧,比一般现在还简单。表示现在正在做的动作,但要注意有的动词不能用于进行时,这类词称为短暂性动词,如,open, borrow等等,在完成时态常常会碰到,平时要注意积累。
3.现在完成时(have done):重要考点,初二以后几乎都是完成时态。
A)表示动作到现在为止已经完成或刚刚完成。
ex: I have just finished my homework.B)表示从过去某时刻开始,持续到现在的动作或情况,并且有可能会继续延续下去。此时经常用延续性动词。时间状语常用since加一个过去的时间点,或for 加一段时间,或by加一个现在时间。这里联系进行时,他们都一样,不能用短暂性动词,★★★☆☆考点。
C)表示发生在过去,但对现在仍有影响的动作或情况。通常用点动词,如:arrive, begin, find, give, lose等。
例:John has broken his left leg.(约翰摔断了左腿。)
注意:
A)现在完成时是联系过去和现在的纽带。现在完成时和过去时的区别在于:现在完成时强调动作的动态,或受动态的影响,是动态的结果,对现在有影响;过去时只表示过去的某个具体时间里发生的动作,与现在没有联系。
例:He worked in that hospital for 8 years.(他曾经在那家医院工作了8年。这只是讲述一个过去的事实,他现在已经不在那家医院了。)
He has worked in that hospital for 8 years.(他已经在那家医院里工作了8年。表示他从过去开始工作,一直工作到现在,现在仍在那家医院工作。)
B)因为含有for加一段时间或since加一个时间点这样的时间状语的完成时,有动态和延续性的特点,所以不能使用终端动词或瞬间动词。
例:My sister has been married for 5 years.(过去分词做表语表示状态,可以延续)
My sister has married.Don't disturb her.(终端动词)
C)在“this is the first/ second/ third…… time that……”句型里要求用完成时。
例: This is the second time that the products of our company have been shown in the International Exhibition.(这是我公司产品第二次参加国际展览会。)
D)句型“It is/ has been……since”所使用的两种时态都正确。
例:It is/ has been 10 years since I last saw him.(从我上次见到他以来已经10年了。)
E)在“no sooner than”、“hardly/ scarcely ……when”、“before”、“prior to”(在……之前)等句型中,主句要求完成时。
例:I haven't met that professor prior to today.(以前我从未见过那位教授。)
4.现在完成进行时(have been doing):和现在进行时很像
1)用法:表示某一动作开始于过去某一时间,延续或重复地出现至今,或将继续延续至将来。
例:We have been working on this project for over a month now.(到目前为止,我们一直在处理那个项目,已经花了一个多月时间了。)
2)注意事项:与现在完成时相比,现在完成进行时更强调:在从过去到现在的时间里,动作或状态一直持续或一直反复出现。
5.一般过去时
A)表示过去某个时间发生的动作或情况。
ex:I went to Beijing last year.B)表示过去习惯性动作。特别是由would/ used to do表达的句型,本身表示的就是过去时。
ex: I used to live here.(注意used to 和be used to 的区别,used to表过去常常,be used to 表示习惯于,前者to是不定式符号,后者则是介词,后接名词、动名词、代词)
C)有时可代替一般现在时,表达一种婉转、客气、礼貌、商量的语气。
ex: Would you mind my sitting here?(您介意我坐在这里吗?)
Could you pass me the pen?
注意:
A)注意时间状语的搭配。一般过去时的时间状语应该是表示过去某个时间的词或词组,如:yesterday, last month, in 1999, two days ago等,绝对不可与recently, in the past 10 years, this month等连用,因为这样的时 间状语都与现在有关系,应该用现在完成时或一般现在时。注意,到了初二将会是★★★★☆考点,不会不行,逃不了的,几乎每次都考。
B)used to do的否定形式和疑问形式很特别:你怎么写都正确。以否定形式为例:used not to do, didn't used to do, didn't use to do都对。
6.过去完成时(had done)
用法:表示在过去的某个时间或动作以前已经发生的动作或已经存在的状态。就是我们常说的:表示“过去的过去的动作或状态”。
画一条时间轴过去完成__●_一般过去_◇_一般现在___○______
2)注意事项:“过去的过去”这种逻辑关系常通过上下文体现出来,而不一定受某个时间状语的限制。ex: There had been some one in our room just now, because I noticed a burning cigarette end on the floor when we opened the front door.7.过去将来时(would/ should do)表示从过去的某个时间看将要发生的事。其实和将来时没什么区别啦。ex: I said on Thursday I should see my friend the next day.宾从、直引经常碰到这样的例子,注意。
8.过去进行时(was/ were doing)
A)表示在过去一个比较具体的时间正在发生的动作。
ex: I was doing my homework at this time yesterday.B)如果when, while这样的时间状语引导词所引导的主从句之一是一般过去时,则另一个句子常用过去进行时。
ex: I was washing my hair when you knocked at the front door.9.一般将来时
A)基本结构是will / shall do。古英语认为will用于第二、三人称,shall用于第一人称,但后来没做硬性规定,will比较常用。I will be home at 10.B)有些动词,如:arrive, be close, come, do, done, go, have, leave, open, play, return, sleep, start, stay等,用于一般进行时,并且通常与一个表示将来时间的时间状语连用,可以表示将来时。初一接触比较 多的是be going to,后面的包括will/shall到了后来才出现,其他如sleep很少见,初中阶段我几乎没见过sleep这么用的,leave, come, arrive也常见
ex: My mother is coming to visit me next week and is staying here until May.C)表示“即将、正要”时,可用be about to do。强调近期内或马上要做的事,后常与when连用。ex: I was about to speak when you interrupted me.D)“be to do”的5种用法:
a)表示“按计划、安排即将发生某事或打算做某事”。
例:She is to be seen in the lab on Monday.(星期一你准会在实验室见到她。)
b)该做或不该做的事情(语气上接近于should, must, ought to, have to),表示一种命令、规劝性语气。例:You are to go to bed and keep quiet, kids.Our guests are arriving in less than 5 minutes.(孩子们,你们必须 上床睡觉,不准吵闹。我们的客人5分钟之内就要到了。)
c)能或不能发生的事情(接近can, may)
例:How am I to pay such a debt?(我怎么可能还得起这么大的一笔债呢?)
d)不可避免将要发生的事情,后来将要发生的事情。
例:I assure you that the matter _______ as quickly as possible.Have a little patience.A.will be attended B.will be attended to
C.is attended D.is attended to
will be attended to关键的一点是:attend表示“处理,解决”时是不及物动词,必须与to连用。另外,从上下文看,事情显然尚未解决,所以应该用将来时的被动语态。答案是B。
E)同样可以表示“正要、将要”的意思的句型是be on the point of doing。The coach is on the point of giving up the game because our team has been scored 7 points.注意:
在 以if, when, as long as, as soon as, after, before, in case, until, unless 等连词以及具有连词作用的副词(immediately, the moment, directly)等引导的状语从句,一般用现在时代替将来时。强调 延续性或动态时,可用完成时。
例:I hope his health will have improved by the time you come back next year.(我希望到明年你回来的时候,他的身体已经好多了。)
10.将来进行时(will be doing)调在将来的某个具体时间正在发生的动作或事情。
ex: Don't worry, you won't miss her.She will be wearing a red T-shirt and a white skirt at that time.11.将来完成时(will have done)表示从将来的某一时间开始、延续到另一个将来时间的动作或状态,或是发生在某个将来时间,但对其后的另一个 将来时间有影响的动作或状态。就好象把现在完成时平移到时间轴的将来时时段一样。其用法从和过去及现在有关,变成了和将来及将来的将来有关。
ex: It is reported that by the end of this century the people of Chinese will have increased by 2 billion.
