语法 Grammar in use

一般现在时

在第26课的语法中，我们讲到有些表示状态和感觉的动词通常用于一般现在时而不用于进行时，如：appear, appreciate, believe, feel, forget, hear, know, like, look, notice, remember, resemble, see, think, understand。除了这些动词之外，另外有些表示所属关系以及喜好、憎恶、需要等感情的动词通常也只用于一般现在时而不用于进行时。这些动词包括belong to, consist of, contain, desire, detest, dislike, hate, hope, love, matter, mean, mind, need, want, wish等。它们往往表示通常的状态而不是具体动作。

The car belongs to Dan.

那辆车是丹的。（不可用进行时）

I need a new hat.

我需要一顶新帽子。（表示状态）
