Cách 2

Để nhận biết thì hiện tại hoàn thành và quá khứ đơn, ta dựa vào những trạng từ trong câu đó.

• Với thì hiện tại hoàn thành, trong câu thường có một số trạng từ như: Just (vừa mới); recently/ lately/ so far (gần đây); already (rồi); ever (đã từng); before (trước đó); yet (chưa); until now/ until present/ up to the present (cho đến bây giờ/ cho đến thời điểm hiện tại); since + mốc thời gian (từ khi); for + khoảng thời gian (trong khoảng)… Các trạng từ “just, already, ever, never” thường đứng sau have/ has và trước động từ trong câu.

• Với thì hiện tại đơn, trong câu thường có những trạng từ chỉ thời gian trong quá khứ như: Yesterday (ngày hôm qua), last night/ last week/ last month/ last year (đêm qua, tuần qua, tháng vừa qua, năm vừa qua/ năm trước); ago + thời gian (cách đây); when (khi); in + mốc thời gian trong quá khứ…

3. Cách sử dụng

*Xét về thời điểm diễn ra của sự việc trong quá khứ

- Thì hiện tại hoàn thành diễn tả một hành động xảy ra và kết thúc tại một thời điểm không xác định trong quá khứ.

- Diễn tả một hành động xảy ra và kết thúc tại một thời điểm xác định trong quá khứ.

*Xét về hành động trong quá khứ có hoặc không có liên quan đến hiện tại

- Thì hiện tại hoàn thành diễn tả hành động đã xảy ra và còn kết quả ở hiện tại

- Thì quá khứ đơn diễn tả hành động đã xảy ra và không còn kết quả ở hiện tại.
