Разница

между

The Present Continuous

и

The Present Simple



1. Present Continuous применяется для описания ситуаций и действий, которые говорящий считает временными. Present Simple описывает ситуации, которые говорящий воспринимает как постоянные.

Linda is working at the ice cream shop during summer. – Летом Линда работает в магазине мороженого. (когда лето закончится, Линда больше не будет работать в этом месте.)

Sam works as a manager at the ice cream shop. – Сэм работает управляющим в магазине мороженого. (это его постоянная работа)

2. Если мы описываем повторяющиеся действия, которые связаны с настоящим моментом, используем Present Continuous. А если с настоящим моментом они не связаны, употребляем Present Simple.

I'm speaking with my mom a lot these days. – В последнее время я часто говорю с мамой по телефону. (есть связь с текущим моментом)

I speak with my aunt who lives in New York twice a year. – Дважды в год я разговариваю со своей тетей, которая живет в Нью-Йорке. (нет связи с настоящим моментом)

3. Present Continuous описывает действие, происходящее в настоящий момент. Present Simple используется для описания фактов, которые остаются верными в любой момент времени.

Kathy is speaking with her father at the moment. – Сейчас Кэти говорит со своим отцом. (она говорит в настоящий момент времени, разговор будет закончен)

Kathy speaks English. – Кэти говорит по-английски. (она умеет говорить по-английски, это утверждение остается фактом в любой момент времени)

Разница между The Past Simple и The Present Perfect



1. Говорим или не говорим, когда что-то произошло.

В Present Perfect важен факт совершения действия и не имеет значения, когда именно оно произошло. В Past Simple обычно указывается, когда именно произошло действие.

Слова-маркеры в Past Simple: yesterday (вчера), in 2015 (в 2015), ago (тому назад), when I was younger (когда я был моложе) и другие.

I have ridden a horse! – Я ездил верхом! (неважно, когда это было)

I rode a horse yesterday morning! – Вчера утром я ездил верхом! (конкретный момент в прошлом)

2. Законченный период времени или текущий.

Если мы говорим о периоде времени, который все еще продолжается, употребляем Present Perfect. Часто на текущий период указывают такие слова-маркеры, как today (сегодня), this week (на этой неделе), this month (в этом месяце) и this year (в этом году).

Если период закончен, используем Past Simple. На него указывают следующие слова-маркеры: last week (на прошлой неделе), last month (в прошлом месяце), last year (в прошлом году).

I haven’t seen you in the office this week. – Я не видел тебя в офисе на этой неделе. (неделя не закончилась)

I didn’t see Sofie at work last week. – Я не видел Софи на работе на прошлой неделе. (прошлая неделя закончилась)

3. Связь с настоящим и факт из прошлого.

У Present Perfect всегда есть какая-то привязка к настоящему, тогда как при помощи Past Simple можно просто изложить факты о прошлом.

We’re so happy! We have learnt English! – Мы так счастливы! Мы выучили английский! (мы счастливы сейчас – привязка к настоящему)

Ivan learned English at school. – Иван учил английский в школе. (факт из прошлого)

Разница

между

The Past Simple

и

The Past Perfect



Past Simple используется, когда действия происходят в хронологическом порядке, а Past Perfect – когда нужно показать, какое действие произошло первым, раньше остальных действий.

He started the car, turned the radio on and fastened the seat belt. – Он завел машину, включил радио и пристегнул ремень безопасности.

Действия описываются в хронологическом порядке: сначала он завел машину, потом включил радио и пристегнул ремень безопасности.

He started the car, turned the radio on, but before he had fastened the seat belt. – Он завел машину, включил радио, но перед этим пристегнул ремень безопасности.

Действия описываются не в хронологическом порядке: сначала он пристегнул ремень безопасности, а затем завел машину и включил радио.



Часто в подобных предложениях используется слово when (когда).

When I got home, my son took my car. – Когда я пришел домой, мой сын взял у меня машину.

When I got home, I found that my son had taken my car. – Когда я пришел домой, я обнаружил, что мой сын взял мою машину.



Если из контекста нам понятно, что одно действие произошло раньше другого, можно использовать как Past Perfect, так и Past Simple. Часто понять контекст и очередность событий помогают следующие слова-маркеры: before (перед тем как, до того как), after (после того как), first (сперва, сначала), as soon as (сразу после того как, как только), earlier (раньше) и т. д.

I didn’t worry about speaking in front of so many people. I gave public speeches earlier. – Я не переживал насчет выступления перед большим количеством людей. Я и ранее выступал на публике.

Разница

между

The Future Perfect Continuous

и

The Future Perfect Simple



Future Perfect Continuous и Future Perfect Simple похожи, а иногда могут быть взаимозаменяемыми. Например, в случае с глаголами, которые не используются с временами группы Continuous: know, understand и другими. Однако есть между ними одно важное отличие – для Future Perfect Continuous важно подчеркнуть длительность действия, а Future Perfect Simple делает акцент на завершенности действия и его результате.

By the end of the day I will have read 500 pages of the book. – К концу дня я прочитаю 500 страниц книги. – Future Perfect Simple

Запомните:

В придаточных предложениях времени и условия после союзов if, when, as soon as, before, till/until, after вместо будущего времени употребляется настоящее время.
