过去完成时的用法及举例（过去完成时的用法）

过去完成时

过去完成时是一个动词时态，用来表示过去发生的动作，并在另一个动作之前完成。

我们用过去完成时来表示从过去开始并持续到过去某一特定时间的事情。过去完成时和现在完成时的用法相同，但它指的是过去的时间，而不是现在。

以下是对过去完成时含义的描述:

• She didn’t want to move. She had lived in Milan all her life.
• After we had purchased tickets, we were able to enter the venue.

过去完成时通常与一般过去时一起使用，用来谈论发生在过去不同时间的两个或两个以上的事件。在这种陈述中，一般过去时描述了最接近说话时间的事件。过去完成时描述的是更早以前的事件。为了表示这一动作序列，经常使用介词“after”和“before”。

• The train had left (过去完成) before we arrived (一般过去) at the station. (The train left earlier and we arrived later).
• Anthony had gone (过去完成) to the university when I knocked (一般过去) on his door.
• He had cooked (过去完成) dinner before Gwen got (一般过去) back from work.
