Phân biệt Present Perfect Tense và Simple Past Tense

PHÂN BIỆT THÌ HIỆN TẠI HOÀN THÀNH VÀ THÌ QUÁ KHỨ ĐƠN

A. LÝ THUYẾT

I. Phân biệt thì thì hiện tại hoàn thành (Present Perfect) và quá khứ đơn (Past Simple)

Thì hiện tại hoàn thành

Thì quá khứ đơn

- Diễn tả hành động gần đây đã diễn ra tại thời điểm không xác định trong quá khứ.

Eg: I have bought a new computer

(We don’t know when he bought it => không xác định được thời điểm)

- Diễn tả hành động đã xảy ra trong quá khứ và tiếp tục kéo dài đến hiện tại.

- Diễn tả hành động đã kết thúc tại thời điểm xác định trong quá khứ.

Eg: I bought the computer two years ago

(Two year ago => thời điểm đã được xác định)

- Diễn tả hành động đã kết thúc trong quá khứ.

Dấu hiệu: ever, never, just, already, yet, so far, since, for, recently,…

Dấu hiệu: yesterday, last night/ week/ month/ year, ago, then, when, in 2019,….

II. Chuyển từ hiện tại hoàn thành sang quá khứ đơn và ngược lại

Dạng này có các mẫu sau đây:

Dạng 1. This is the first time I have seen him (đây là lần đầu tôi thấy anh ta)

=> I have never seen him before. (tôi chưa bao giờ thấy anh ta trước đây)

Mẫu này có dạng:

Đây là lần đầu tiên ... làm chuyện đó

The first time: lần đầu tiên

Never ...before : chưa bao giờ trước đây

Dạng 2. I started / begun studying English 3 years ago. (tôi bắt đầu học Tiếng Anh cách đây 3 năm)

=> I have studied English for 3 years. ( tôi học Tiếng Anh được 3 năm )

Mẫu này có dạng:

...bắt đầu làm gì đó cách đây + khoảng thời gian

=> .. đã làm chuyện đó for + khoảng thời gian

Nếu không có ago mà có when + mệnh đề thì giử nguyên mệnh đề chỉ đổi when thành since thôi

Dạng 3. I last saw him when I was a student. (lần cuồi cùng tôi thấy anh ta là khi tôi là sinh viên)

=> I haven't seen him since I was a student. (tôi đã không thấy anh ta từ khi tôi là sinh viên)

Mẫu này có dạng:

Lần cuối cùng làm chuyện đó là khi ....

=> ..không làm chuyện đó từ khi ....

Last : lần cuối

Since : từ khi

Dạng 4. The last time she went out with him was two years ago. (lần cuối cô ta đi chơi với anh ta cách đây 2 năm)

=> She hasn't gone out with him for two years.( cô ta đã không đi chơi với anh ta đã 2 năm nay)

Tương tự mẫu 3 nhưng khác phần sau thôi

Dạng 5. It's ten years since I last met him. (đã 10 năm từ khi tôi gặp anh ta lần cuối)

=> I haven't met him for ten years. (tôi đã không gặp anh ta 10 năm rồi)

Mẫu này có dạng:

Đã ..khoảng thời gian từ khi làm gì đó lần cuối

=> ..không làm việc đó được + khoảng thời gian

Dạng 6. When did you buy it ? ( bạn đã mua nó khi nào ?
