专门替中国人写的英语语法4-2：现在完成进行式（Present Perfect Progressive Tense）

　　4-2现在完成进行式(Present Perfect Progressive Tense)

　　在上一节，我们知道，如果有一个行动，从过去发生后，就一直延续到现在，我们可以用现在完成式。举例来说，以下的例子都应该用现在完成式：

　　(1)自从1974年，我就在学校学英文。

　　Since 1974, I have studied English at school.

　　(2)自从我大学毕业以后，我就在这里工作。

　　Since I graduated from college, I have worked here.

　　以第一句话为例，假如我们要强调我一直在练习游泳，而且没有间断，我们可以用现在完成进行式(present perfect progressive tense)。

　　所谓现在完成进行式，形式：verb to have + been + present participle

　　verb to have 是为了完成式，been 和 present participle 都是为了进行式。

　　以下是现在完成进行式的例子：

　　I have been studying English since 1974.

　　I have been working here since I graduated from college.

　　I have been living here since I was a child.

　　He has been acting like a fool lately.(他最近一直在做傻事)

　　They have been dancing since seven o’clock.

　　It has been snowing since yesterday.

　　I have been taking music lessons since last year.

　　He has been drinking heavily since last year.(他去年起，就一直在酗酒)
