注意区分listen和heard的使用:
I listened but heard nothing .我听了但是什么也没听到。listen表示听的动作,listen to me.不及物动词。heard表示听到了,及物动词,后面可以直接跟宾语。
I went home at 3:00 am yesterday. went是go的过去式,go的过去分词是gone,完成时态要用过去分词,have gone已经走了。如果句子里明确说明了时刻,就用过去式而不要用过去完成时态。
I spent all my time at work yesterday.
I often spend most of my time at work.
I just arrived at factory. I have arrived at factory.
arrive in到达城市等大的地方,arrive at到达小的地点。到达就是到达了,一般只用过去式或完成时态,不会用进行时态。
I usually wake up between six and seven.我通常六点到七点之间醒来。
I often work out of office.

现在进行时,表示正在进行的事情,持续的动作,动词是be doing形式,一般会有时间状语now。be的形式有is,are。is用于主语是第三人称单数。arrive,go home这些动作不用进行时态,到就是到了,回就是回了,只有现在时和完成时态表示已经到了,已经回了。
