  作为系动词(也叫连系动词,link verb)的be,是英语学习者接触最早的用法。下面是小编给大家分享的系动词学习内容,大家可以作为学习的参考。

  英语系动词be用法:

  (一)be的时态变化

  系动词be会有一般现在时、一般过去时、一般将来时、现在完成时、过去完成时等的时态变化。如:

  He isa student.

  They werein the park yesterday.

  It will be cloudy tomorrow.

  He has been ill for six days.

  It had been three hours before she left the hat shop.

  (二)be与情态动词的连用

  其用法为:情态动词+系动词be原形。如:

  It must be Lucy's book. Her name is on the cover.

  It can be very difficult for us to memorize too many words within such a short time.

  She should be here on time tomorrow.

  系动词可接哪些词语作表语:

  连系动词后的表语通常是名词和形容词,有时也可以是代词、数词、副词、介词短语、不定式、动名词、从句等。如:

  1. 用名词作表语。如:

  Translation is an art. 翻译是一种艺术。

  Beijing is a beautiful city. 北京是一座美丽的城市。

  2. 用形容词表作语。如:

  Traveling is interesting but tiring. 旅行是有趣的,但是使人疲劳。

  Every hour and every minute is important. 每一小时,每一分钟,都很宝贵。

  3. 用代词作表语。如:

  My idea is this. 我的想法是这样的。

  Money isn’t everything. 金钱不是一切。

  4. 用数词作表语。如:

  副词可用于系动词后作表语吗:

  误:His English is very well.

  正:His English is very good.

  这饭菜闻起来真香。

  误:The dinner smells deliciously.

  正:The dinner smells delicious.

  但在以下情况,副词可用作表语(且主要是用于系动词be后作表语):

  1. 表示地点或位置的少数副词,如here, there, upstairs, downstairs, abroad, back等。如:

  He asked if anyone was there. 他问那儿是否有人。

  Are the children back yet? 孩子们回来了吗?

  Neither of them is here. 他们俩都不在这里。

  She was abroad all last summer. 她去年整个夏天都在国外。

  If he was downstairs, why didn’t he answer the bell? 他要是在楼下,为何不开门呢?

  2. 与介词同形的小品词有也可用作表语,如in, on, off, out, by, away, behind, up, down, over, through, around, round, below, inside, outside 等。如:

  用于进行时态三类系动词:

  英语的系动词通常不用于进行时态,但以下几类有时可以这样用:

  1. 状态系动词

  表示状态的系动词 be 与动态形容词连用时,可以用于进行时态,表示特定的表现。如:

  She is being very annoying this evening. 她今晚很烦人。

  Your brother was being a fool yesterday. 你兄弟昨天真蠢。

  I was being very careful. 我当时非常小心。

  2. 感官系动词

  感官系动词feel(感觉), look(看起来)有时可用于进行时态。如:

  I’m feeling fine. 我现在感觉良好。

  I’m feeling a bit lonesome. 我感到有点寂寞。

  I’m glad you’re feeling so much better. 我很高兴你感觉好多了。

  Why is she looking so sad? 她为什么愁容满面?

  My boy is not looking very well. 我的孩子气色不太好。

  但是,当feel表示人自身的感觉时,可用于进行时态;但当它表示事物给人的感觉时,它不能用于进行时态,如以下各句不用进行时态:

  Silk feels soft and smooth. 绸子摸起来柔软光滑。

  Silk feels soft and smooth. 绸缎摸起来柔软光滑。

  It felt pleasant going to work. 上班去的感觉很愉快。

  3. 变化系动词
