动词是表示动作或状态的词，根据其意义和作用，动词可分为实义动词、系动词、情态动词和助动词。动词涉及的内容很多，本书仅就研究生
一、时态(Tense)
时态是表示动作发生的时间和表现方式的一种动词形式，英语动词的时态有16种，但在研究生考试以及其他考试中常考的时态只有几种。不管何种时态，所包含的主要内容都是相同的，即时态的构成以及用法。本书着重讲解重要时态的用法。
(一)一般现在时(Simple Present Tense)
1. 表示客观真理或科学事实。
例句： The moon has a mass that is nearly one hundred times less than that of the earth;in consequence, the force of gravity at the moon?s surface is only one?sixth of that at the earth?s surface.
分析： 该句是复合句，定语从句that is nearly...less than that of the earth修饰a mass;in consequence后是另一个并列句。
译文： 月球的`质量差不多是地球质量的1/100，因此月球表面的引力只有地球表面引力的1/6。
例句： One difficulty in translation lies in obtaining a concept match. By this is meant that a concept in one language is lost or changed in meaning in translation. (2001年第8题)
分析： 该句由两个句子构成，前一个是简单句，后一个句子是复合句;that后是一宾语从句。
译文： 翻译中的一个难点在于找到一个相对应的概念。这就是说，在翻译过程中一种语言的概念会丢失或发生意义上的改变。
2. 表示现在反复发生或习惯性的动作以及存在的状态，常与always，often，usually， sometimes， once a week，seldom，never等时间状语连用。
例句： It?s usually the case that people seldom behave in a rational way when in a furious state.

例句： Physicians frustrated by their inability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patient too often offer aggressive treatment far beyond what is scientifically justified. (选自2003年Text 4)
分析： 该句是复合句，其中主干部分为physicians too often offer aggressive treatment...。分词短语frustrated by their inability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patient作physicians的后置定语;从句what is scientifically justified作介词beyond 的宾语。
译文： 医生由于不能够治愈疾病，同时又担心病人失去希望，因而常常采用极端大胆的治疗方法，这些方法远远超过了科学所能认同的界限。
3. 表示按计划进行的将来动作，常用come，arrive，catch，fly，leave，go，start等词。

译文： 他来时，请转告他我告诉你的一切。
4. 用在时间或条件状语从句中表示将来的动作。

译文： 如果明天天气好的话，我们将去逛商场。
