我在自学英语,在看书的过程中有不少问题不太明白,..(请大家不要复制别人的答案好么)
1.Actions speak louder then words.
Action为什么要加S呢,跟Word加S的原因一样么.
2.More and more people are paying attention to their health.
如果不用Paying用pay,句子就错了吗?
如果没错,那意思有变化吗?
3.一句话的时态是不是可以互换的呢,我的意思是说,就像我们小时候中文里学的"把字句"转换成"被字句"一样,一句英文是不是也可以转换成别的时态呢.
比如:We haven’t seen you recently.是不是可以用别的时态来表示类似的意思呢.
4.我们从小就认识这句话(We have known each other since childhood.)可不可以说(We have known each other since we were kid.)呢,嗯,主要想问下最后的were用的对不对.
5.I used to go to school early.为什么不是一般过去时么,为什么go要用原型呢.
6.Li Hong lived in Shanghai for ten years when she was young.李红小时候在上海住过十年.是不是也可以这样说Li Hong used to live in Shanghai for ten years when she was young.
7.他昨天晚上离开这里到上海去了.要说He left for Shanghai yesterday evening.不能说He was left here to Shanghai yesterday evening.
8.清朝时,中国总是对西方列强妥协.例句说In Qing Dynasty,China was always making concessions to western powers.可是这里为什么要用过去进行时呢,说In Qing Dynasty,China always made concessions to western powers.是不是更合适呀?如果不合适的话,这样说语法上有没有错误呢?
9.一般将来时里有一条说be going to可用于条件从句,表示单纯的将来；will则不能.例如：If you are going to go to the cinema this evening,you’d better take your umbrella with you.我怎么觉得可以换成will呢,是约定俗称的么.
10.一般将来时和将来进行时是不是常常可以换着用的呀?
11.你会见到我的兄弟吗?例句是Will you be seeing my brother?但是我觉得see是短暂性的动词吧,怎么能这么用呢.
12.我告诉他马上离开,但他不.这句话例句是I told him to leave immediately,but he wouldn’t.但是是不是也可以说I had told him to leave immediately,but he didn't.
I have read all of the answers form everybody,and it has made me learn a lot.And I also feel grateful for the patience you shown me.Thank you.
仔仔细细的把大家的回答都看了一遍,学到了很多,也很感动,....
Because of the system just allow me to pick one of these answer.So I guess just can make a ThankList to express my appreciation to the rest of the warmhearted friends whom had given me a hand on those problems.
因为只能选一个最佳答案,所以我想用我只能用最真诚的语言来向其他热心回答的朋友表示谢意了.
To Willdongcn:
Thank you,I will take your advise and make it short next time.
To Mr.Lord Templar
It's very kind of you,that you not only answered my questions,but also taught me something I didn't expected for.So thank you again,and I sincerely hope we can become good friends.....
To llxyyr,killercram,linguaYeah,叶武秋风,susansese
Your answers means a great deal to me,Thanks for all of you.

1.行胜于言.此处加s表示泛指,而不是特指哪个行动或言语.
2.句子里既然有了are这个动词,再用别的动词就一定要变换形式.are doing 表示现在进行时,正在发生的事.用pay的话有语法错误.
3.把字句和被字句的关系是主语和宾语互换的关系,而不是时态的问题~
但英文中是可以变换时态的,根据时间状态的不同,有过去时,现在时,完成时等等,那又另当别论了,和把字句被字句没有关系.
4.were是对的,但要用kids.
5.used to do sth,是一个固定的结构,表示过去常常怎样怎样,只能这样用哦~
6.不行.上题已说,used to do是过去常常怎样,不能说李红过去常常在上海住了十年,这样不通顺,住了十年是一个持续的状态.
7.leave for somewhere是一个固定搭配,表示到离开而哪里去.如果你用was left,就成了被动语态,表示他被留下了,落单了,再加上后面的句子就完全不通顺了
8.在英语中,进行时可以用来表示一种强烈的感情色彩,这里用到过去进行时,表示中国的妥协次数太多,太丧失国格了,主要是要表达这种强烈的感情.你的用法也对,但是感情上没有进行时强烈.我再举个例子：She always sing.和She is always singing.前者是：她总是唱歌,后者是：她老是在唱歌!感情色彩一下子就出来了.
9.这是一条语法规定,记住就行了.表示将来计划好的事情都用be going to do而不是will.
10.不能常换,要看具体情况了.进行时更多的是强调“进行”这个状态.
11.这里的see显然不是表示“看到一眼”这样一个短暂的动词,它在这里可以用meet来代替的,你再体会一下.英语中很多动词既可以表示短暂的一瞬,某些时候又可以表示较长的一段时间.比如这里的see
12.你说的是过去完成时,更加强调已经完成的动作.而题中并强调没有说“我已经告诉过他马上离开”,用一般过去时就够了.当然你的也不能算太错,只是在时态的理解上还要多想想哦~
