UNIT 2. СПОСОБЫ ВЫРАЖЕНИЯ ПРОШЛЫХ ДЕЙСТВИЙ

УПОТРЕБЛЕНИЕ

Повествование

A. Простые действия

Время Past Simple используется для описания завершившихся действий в прошлом, никак не связанных с настоящим.

Susan went into the station and bought a ticket.

Сьюзэн пошла на вокзал и купила билет.

B.Описание ситуации (фона события)

Время Past Progressive употребляется для выражения действия, протекавшего в определенный момент в прошлом (ни начало, ни конец действия неизвестны), а также при описании ситуации (фона другого прошлого действия).

There were a lot of people waiting in the station. Some were sleeping on the benches, and others were walking up and down. Susan was looking for Graham, so she didn't sit down.

На вокзале ожидало много людей. Некоторые спали на лавках, а другие ходили взад и вперед. Сьюзэн искала Грэхэма, поэтому не садилась.

C. Предпрошедшее действие

Время Past Perfect выражает прошедшее действие, предшествовавшее другому действию в прошлом.

By the time the train arrived, Susan had managed to push her way to the front of the crowd.

Ко времени прибытия поезда Сьюзэн удалось протиснуться сквозь толпу.

Однако не всегда указатель времени четко указывает на предшествование.
