一、对一般现在时的考查。
1.考查其基本概念：一般现在时表示一个习惯性、经常性的动作。
常与表示习惯的副词always, every time, now and then, occasionally, often, seldom, sometimes, usually 等连用。但近几年，对一般现在时的考查常用过去时态或现在完成时态对考生进行干扰。
1) months ago we sailed ten thousand miles across the open sea, which __the pacific, and we met no storm.
a. was called b. is called c. had been called d. has been called
2.考查一般现在时的替代用法：
在以when, till/ until, as soon as, by the time, after, before等引导的时间状语从句，在以if, unless, once等引导的条件状语从句和以no matter, however, even if 等词引导的让步状语从句中，如果主句中的动词用一般将来时，从句中的动词通常用一般现在时或现在完成时代替一般将来时。
what would you do if it __tomorrow?
we h**e to carry it on ,since we’ve got everything ready.
a. rain b. rains c. will rain d. is raining
二、对一般过去时的考查。
一般过去时表示在过去某时某刻发生的动作或存在的状态，它常与表过去的时间状语连用，如yesterday, last year, last night, the other day, just now, then, two days ago, in 1999, at that time等。但是一般过去时也经常用在没有说明过去的时间状语的句子中，这是高考的命题方向。
more than a dozen students in that school __abroad to study medicine last year.
a. sentb. were sent c. had sentd. had been sent
三、对现在进行时的考查。
由上下文语境表示时间。
1)— what’s the terrible noise？— the neighbors __for a party
a. h**e prepared b. are preparing c. prepare d. will prepare
2)because the shop __all the t-shirts are sold at half price.
a. has closed down b. closed down
c. is closing down d. had closed down
3) —are you still busy?
yes, i __my work, and it won’t take long.
a．just finishb. am just finishing
c．h**e just finished d. am just going to finish
4) since i won the big prize, my telephone hasn't stopped ringing. people __to ask how i am going to spend the money.
a. phone b. will phone c. were phoning d. are phoning
5) selecting a mobile phone for personal use is no easy task because technology __so rapidly.
a. is changing b. has changed c. will h**e changed d. will change
四、对过去进行时的考查。
i was walking down the street when it began to rain.
1.把过去进行时放在when, while, as 等引导的时间状语从句中考查。如果主句谓语和从句谓语都发生在过去，动作时间长的用过去进行时，表达谈话背景；动作时间短的用一般过去时，表达新的信息。
you were out when i dropped in at your house.
oh, i __for a friend from england at the airport.
a. was waiting b. had waited
c. am waiting d. h**e waited
2.把过去进行时放在某特定的语境中考查。
has sam finished his homework today?
i h**e no idea. he __it this morning.
a. did b. has done c. was doing d. had done
3.考查过去进行时与一般过去时的比较。
shirley __a book about china last year but i don’t know whether she has finished it.
a. has written b. wrote c. had written d. was writing
五、对现在完成时的考查。
1.现在完成时表示过去的动作对现在的影响或表示经验。
2.现在完成时表示过去的动作一直延续至今并可能继续下去，常与for或since 等短语连用。
igraduate) in 1992 and in that year i __begin) to teach english in a middle school. i __teach) there for eleven years . eleven years later ,i __move) to qingdao.
iteach) senior english here for nearly 6 years ever since then.
1) he was hoping to go abroad but his parents __that they won’t support him unless he can borrow money from the bank.
a. were deciding b. h**e decided
c. decidedd. will decide
2) millions of pounds’ worth of damage __by
a storm which swept across the north of england last night.
a. has been caused b. had been caused
c. will be caused d. will h**e been caused
3)—the window is dirty.
— i know. it __for weeks.
a. hasn’t cleaned b. didn’t clean
c. wasn’t cleaned d. hasn’t been cleaned
注：由终止性动词le**e, arrive, come, go, return, begin, start, put, stop, start, put, stop, die, fall, buy, borrow, see等构成的完成时不能与for或since引导的时间状语连用。但这些终止性动词的否定式可以与for或since短语连用。
eg. i h**en’t met him for two years.
3.考查现在完成时与一般过去式的区别：
一般过去时着重说明动作发生的时间、地点、方式等，与现在不发生联系，且句中一般有表示过去的时间状语；而现在完成时只说明现在的情况，对现在有影响。
