10、e/has+动词的过去分词构成。这是现在完成时的基本概念和用法。如： The plane has arrived now. 飞机现在已经到达。（影响和结果是你现在会看见这架飞机）与现在完成时连用的副词有：already（已经），yet（仍然），just（刚刚），ever（曾经），never（从不），before（以前）等。4 I have already seen the film. 我已看过那部电影了。 My mother hasnt come back yet. 我妈妈还没有回来。 Jack has just bought a new dictionary. 杰克刚买了一本新词典。 Hav
