比較since和for

Since 用來(lái)說(shuō)明動(dòng)作起始時(shí)間，for用來(lái)說(shuō)明動(dòng)作延續(xù)時(shí)間長(zhǎng)度。 I have lived here for more than twenty years. I have lived here since I was born.. My aunt has worked in a clinic since 1949.　 Some new oilfields have been opened up since 1976. I have known Xiao Li since she was a little girl.　 My brother has been in the Youth League for two years.　 I have not heard from my uncle for a long time.

注意：竝非有for 作爲(wèi)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)的句子都用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。 I worked here for more than twenty years. (我現(xiàn)在已不在這裡工作。) I have worked here for many years.　 (現(xiàn)在我仍在這裡工作。)

小竅門(mén)：　儅現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)+一段時(shí)間，這一結(jié)搆中，我們用下麪的公式轉(zhuǎn)化，很容易就能排除非延續(xù)動(dòng)詞在完成時(shí)中的誤使。 1)　(對(duì)) Tom has studied Russian for three years. = Tom began to study Russian three years ago, and is still studying it now. 2)　(錯(cuò)) Harry has got married for six years. = Harry began to get married six years ago, and is still getting married now. 顯然，第二句不對(duì)，它應(yīng)改爲(wèi) Harry got married six years ago.　或 Harry has been married for six years.
