一 般 过 去 时 讲 解 与 练 习定义表示的是：某个动作作发生在过去的时间里，并且这个动作已经完成了。
常和表示过去的时间状语连用。
如：last year, yesterday 等；也可表示过去经常反复发生的动作，常和often, always 等频率副词连用。
一、巧记一般过去时：动词一般过去时，表示过去发生的事；be 用was 或用were, have, has 变had ；谓语动词过去式，过去时间作标志；一般动词加-ed ，若是特殊得硬记。
否定句很简单，主语之后didn’t 添；疑问句也不难，did 放在主语前；不含be 动词时如果谓语之前有did ，谓语动词需还原；动词若是was, were,否定就把not 添。
含be 动词时疑问句也不难，要把was ，were 放在主语前。
be 的一般过去时：学习动词be 的一般过去时，下面有一口诀，它可以帮你们更好地掌握动词be 的一般过去时。
be 的过去时有四巧：一是时间状语巧， 表示过去的短语要记牢；二是形式巧，单数was ，复数were ；三巧是否定句结构，not 紧跟was ／were ；四是疑问句式巧，was ／were 向前跑(提前)。
【一巧】时间状语（即标志词）巧。
一般过去时表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态，恰巧与表示过去的一些时间状语连用。
【二巧】形式巧。
它与一般现在时一样，形式多样：当主语是第一人称单数或第三人称单数时，谓语动词用was ；主语是第二人称或其他人称复数时，谓语动词用were 。
例如： I was in the classroom yesterday morning ． 昨天早上我在教室里。
He was at school last Tuesday．上周二他在学校。
They were over there a moment ago．刚才他们在那边。
【三巧】否定句结构巧。
与动词be的一般现在时一样，它在动词后面加not即可变成否定句，并且was, were与not可以缩写成wasn't, weren't。
即：主语＋wasn't／weren't ＋表语＋其他。
例如：I was not (＝wasn't) here yesterday．昨天我不在这儿。
My parents were not (＝weren't) at home last Sunday．上周日我父母不在家。
【四巧】疑问句式巧。
把was, were提到句首，句末用问号即可变为一般疑问句。
即：Was(Were) ＋主语＋表语＋其他？这恰巧与动词be的一般现在时的疑问句式相似。
例如：Were you at home the day before yesterday﹖前天你在家吗？Was she late this morning﹖今天早上她迟到了吗？更巧的是疑问句的答语也相似，肯定回答用“Yes, 主语＋was／were．”；否定回答用“No,主语＋wasn't／weren't．”。
例如：—Were Wei Hua and Han Mei here just now﹖刚才魏华和韩梅在这儿吗？—Yes, they were．(No, they weren't．) 是的，她们在。
（不，她们不在。
）一般过去时主要是通过谓语动词的变化来表示的。
英语中每种时态都要求谓语动词进行相应的变化。
在一般过去时里，要求谓语动词用动词“过去式”。
原形动词变为过去式，可以概括为两类：一类是规则的变化，另一类是不规则的变化。
1.规则变化的动词过去式规则变化的动词过去式(1) 在词尾加ed 或d英语中大部分动词过去式都是规则变化的，即在动词后加上ed；如果结尾字母是不发音的e，则只要加上一个d就行了。
例如：work-worked clean-cleaned play-playeddecide-decided live-lived love-loved(2) 以辅音字母+y结尾的，变y为i加edstudy-studied hurry-hurried carry-carried(3) 以重读闭音节结尾的，双写最后的辅音字母再加edstop-stopped drop-dropped2.不规则变化的动词过去式不规则变化是指过去式不能加ed，用另外一个词来表示。
这样的不规则过去式也有很多，只有靠一个一个去记忆了。
例如：is/am-was are-were have/has-hadshall-should will-would can-could may- mightgo-went come-came take-tooksit-sat say-said get-got swim-swamrun-ran write-wrote sing-sang tell-toldspeak-spoke begin-began break-broke不规则变化中，还有少数词的过去式与原形动词完成相同；read的过去式只是读音改变了。
例如：cut-cut put-put let-let read-read [red]keep-kept feel-felt sleep-slept sweep-sweptbuild-built lend-lent send-sent spend-spentring-rang sit-sat drink-drank sing-sang swim-swamthink-thought buy-bought bring-brought fight-foughtteach-taught catch-caughtknow-knew grow-grew throw-threw draw-drew3.规则动词过去式的读音在清辅音[p] [k] [f] [s] 等后，ed要读[t]。
例如：worked, finished在元音或浊辅音[b] [g] [v] [z] [m]等后，ed要读[d]。
例如：lived, called在[t]或[d]后，ed读[id]。
例如：started，needed一般过去时- 疑问句型过去时的一般疑问句可以分为两类。
1.was / were,它们的一般疑问句是将was / were,移到主语前面，否定句是直接在它们后面加上not。
例如：He was very busy last Friday.He wasn't very busy last Friday.Was he very busy last Friday? Yes, he was. / No, he wasn’t2. 实义动词实义动词过去式的一般疑问句，是在主语前加上did；否定句是在谓语动词前加上did not，并将谓语动词改为动词原形。
请注意：过去时不分人称和单复数，都是加did或did not。
例如：Li Ming studied English this morning.Did Li Ming study English this morning？Yes, he did. /No, he didn't.Li Ming didn't study English this morning.We often played badminton together.Did you play badminton together? Yes, we did. / No, we didn't.We didn't play badminton together.其次，had 作为实义动词的话，加did或did not.例如：They had a meeting last Friday.Did they have a meeting last Friday? Yes, they did. No, they didn't.They didn't have a meeting last Friday.3.过去时的特殊疑问句How did you find the job? I found it in the newspaper.这工作你是怎么知道的？我从报纸上看到的。
一般现在时要和现在的时间相联系，而一般过去时和说话的“现在”没有联系。
His father is a film director.他父亲是电影导演。
(他现在还是)His father was a film director.他父亲曾是电影导演。
(他现在不是)How do you like the novel?你觉得这部小说怎么样？(还在看小说)How did you like the novel? 你觉得这部小说怎么样？(已看完小说)一般过去时- 句型口诀一般过去时并不难，表示过去动作、状态记心间。
动词要用过去式，时间状语句末站。
否定句很简单，didn't 站在动词原形前，其它部分不要变。
一般疑问句也好变，did放在句子前，主语、动词原形、其它部分依次站。
特殊疑问句也简单，疑问词加一般疑问句记心间。
最后一条请注意，动词过去式要牢记。
