(1)already 意为“已经”,常用于肯定句,与完成时和进行时连用为多。
用于疑问句时表示问话人持怀疑、惊异的态度。例如:
It's only 11 o'clock and they have already had lunch.
现在才11点,他们已经吃过午饭了。
Are they building a new hotel here? There are too many hotels already. 他们要在这儿建一个新饭店吗?这儿的饭店已经够多了。
[注] already偶尔也可用于疑问句,此时具有“惊奇”的意味。例如:
Have you finished the work already? You are very speedy.
你已经完成工作了吗?你的速度真快。
Is it Sunday already? 已经到星期天啦?
I have already finished it.我已经做完了。
(2)yet 通常用于疑问句和否定句,在疑问句中作“已经”解,用来询问说话人期望发生的事情是否已经发生;在否定句中作“还”、“尚未”解,表示说话人期望发生的事情尚未发生。如:
I haven’t learned it yet.
我还不知此事。
Has he come yet?
他还没有来?(表疑问)
John, have you finished that report yet?
约翰,你把报告已经写出来了吗?
John hasn't finished that report yet and I asked him for it three days ago.
约翰还没有写完报告,可我三天前就要他交了.
(3)still强调过去发生的事情及存在的状况目前还在延续。在现在完成时的否定句中。still表示吃惊或不耐烦的语气;但在现在进行时中,still只表示动作正在持续,不带有感情色彩。例如:
My neighbour hit my car last week and he still hasn't apologised.
我的邻居上周撞了我的车,可他到现在还没有道歉呢。
He's still living with his mother.
他仍与母亲住在一起.
He should have been killed in the accident, but he is still alive.
他本应在事故中丧生,但他活着。
anymore是'再次,更多',比如:
Get out of my house! I don't wanna see you anymore!
滚出我的房子! 我再也不想见到你了!
