I have been taking photos of UFO with this camera. (动作动词)
注:动作动词表示发生或变化的动作,如go,play。状态动词表示保持不变的动作,如like, know,exist
4.当 never,yet,already,ever出现在句子中时,只用现在完成时态,而不用现在完成进行时态。

第二单元
一 将来进行时态
1.我们用将来进行时态来:
1)谈论将来一段时间正在进行的事情。
如:Toby will be climbing in the Himalayas all next week
2)谈论从将来的某一点开始并且有可能要持续一段时间的事情。
如:Toby will not be in London next Tuesday. He will be climbing in the Himalayas.
3)没有任何意图的表达将来的事情。
如:The weather report says that it will be raining when we arrive in London.
在这种情况下表示事情是很自然的发生的,没有人为的安排。
4)礼貌地询问有关其他人将来的计划。
如:Will you be visiting your uncle in Tanzania?
2.将来进行时态的构成:
1)陈述句:will(not)+v-ing
如:Toby and his brother, Colin, will (not) be flying to Morocco.
2)疑问句:will 提到主语的前面
如:Will they be flying to Morocco on 15th July?
3)回答:will(not)
如:Yes, they will. /No, they will not(won’t)

如:I was going to leave, but then it rained.
3) 暗指一个过去的安排。
如:Colin called Jennifer to say that he was seeing her later that afternoon.
4) 指代实际已经发生过的将来的动作。
如:The journey that was to change Toby’s life started in July that year.
2.陈述句中过去将来时态的构成:
1)would +动词原形
