Настоящее время.

В английском языке 3 вида настоящего времени, которые активно используются в разговорном английском и, иногда, для выражения будущего времени.

Как и в случае прошедшего времени, выбор каждого настоящего времени в английском языке строго ограничен теми условиями, в которых данное время может использоваться. Present Indefinite используется, когда действие происходит практически всю жизнь, а Present Continuous используется, когда действие происходит некоторый сравнительно небольшой период, включающий момент в настоящем.

Например,
I teach students at the University. - Я учу студентов в университете. Это моя специальность, этим делом я занимаюсь почти всю жизнь.
I am teaching students at the University. -Я учу студентов в университете. Но это не мое постоянное занятие. Возможно, я занимаюсь этим временно, и через некоторое время буду работать по другой специальности.

 

 

Present Indefinite

Образование утвердительного высказывания

Для глаголов 3 лица единственного числа:

глагол +s

Для всех остальных лиц и чисел глагол имеет ту же форму, что и в словаре.

Окончание -s добавляется к глаголу по орфографическим правилам. (см Грамматическое приложение, стр. 94)

Образование вопросов

Для образования общих, специальных и альтернативных вопросов используют вспомогательный глагол does для глаголов 3 лица единственного числа или глагол do для всех остальных чисел и лиц. Этот вспомогательный глагол ставят перед подлежащим, а сам смысловой глагол имеет ту же форму, что и в словаре.

Например,
утвердительное предложение She plays piano very well.

общий вопрос Does she play piano very well?

специальный вопрос How well does she play piano?

N. B. В специальных вопросах к подлежащему порядок слов сохраняется таким же, как и в утвердительном предложении.

Образование отрицаний

Для образования отрицаний используют вспомогательный глагол does для глаголов 3 лица единственного числа или глагол do для всех остальных чисел и лиц. Этот вспомогательный глагол с частицей not ставят перед смысловым глаголом, а сам смысловой глагол имеет ту же форму, что и в словаре.

Например,
утвердительное предложение He admires Rolling Stones.

отрицание He doesn't admire Rolling Stones.

В разговорной речи предпочтительней использовать сокращенную форму:

don't = do not,

doesn't = does not.
