2 关于下面这篇文章的三个疑问与for的意思

下文是《新外研社八年级下册Module 4 Unit 2》中activity  2的课文:                                           


                                                           Healthy living

       I was not feeling very well so the doctor checked my heart and said I needed more exercise. I have never been very active, and I do not like sports.I have always wanted a pet,so my parents gave me a dog for my birthday.Now I get exercise by takeing him for a walk every day.I have had him for three months now and I feel really healthy.        

--Anna

    

     Our teacher decided to start a girls' football team and I thought, “What a great idea!”  I was the first member of the team.We have played football for a year now and we all feel very fit.Our teacher is the coach,and she also takes part in training with us.She is in excellent condition too.

 --Wang Wei

      

      For the last few years,I went to work on the underground.When I got to work,I always felt very sleepy and I was not happy.I bought in January.Since then, it has become part of my life.Now I ride to work every day. It is my daily exercise. I arrive at work with a smile on my face.

--Thomas

     

     I was weak after a long illness, so I wanted to exercise more.Then a friend suggested, “Why don't we go for a run befor school?” So we started running a week ago. But I do not enjoy running,and when I get to school, I feel awful. My leges hurt and I am hot all over. Perhaps I am too weak to do any exercise.What do you think?

--Richard


彩色部分不太懂(下面按照顺序):

  1. 请问“I was not feeling very well”为什么要用过去进行时

  2. 请问这个蓝色的“for”在那里是什么意思?

  3. 有in excellent condition那么有没有out of excellent condition?

  4. 请问这句话为什么不用现在完成时

    练习题里就有一题:In the last twenty years,our city has improved a lot.这里是用现在完成时,可是课本上的那句为什么不用现在完成时而用一般过去时?我还是有点儿搞不清,能说一下吗?

  5. 这句话“ Since then,it has become part of my life.”我最不明白了,become不是短暂性动词吗?为什么这个时候还可以与since then连用?为什么不是用“Since then,it has been part of my life.”?

麻烦各位专家老师了,谢谢!!

我谈谈我的看法。如果有误,请各位专家老师指正。

  1. 请问“I was not feeling very well”为什么要用过去进行时?

    如果用过去时felt(did not feel),就是说不舒服的感觉现在已经消失了,而且只是简单说“感觉不舒服”这个意思。结合句意,作者说自己在过去一段时间里一直感觉不舒服,所以才去找医生。用was feeling指不舒服的感觉一直延续到看医生。

  2. 请问这个蓝色的“for”在那里是什么意思?

    my parents gave me a dog for my birthday,这里的for就是“作为”的意思。

  3. 有in excellent condition那么有没有out of excellent condition?

    没有吧,out of condition是“身体健康状况不好”,而excellent是“极好的”的意思,两者放在一起,不是很矛盾吗?此外,我想起了excell in这个固定搭配,excel是excellent的动词形式。

  4. 请问这句话为什么不用现在完成时?

    For the last few years,I went to work on the underground。这里的for the last few years是“在过去几年里”的意思,这里的for和现在完成时的标记for不同。

    练习题里就有一题:In the last twenty years,our city has improved a lot.这里是用现在完成时,可是课本上的那句为什么不用现在完成时而用一般过去时?我还是有点儿搞不清,能说一下吗?

    我觉得这里要看句意和动词的性质。练习题里的意思是“在最后的20年里,我们的城市已经改善了很多”,说明改善是已经一段时间完成的。当然,用过去时的话就简单陈述了一个状况而已。

  5. 这句话“ Since then,it has become part of my life.”我最不明白了,become不是短暂性动词吗?为什么这个时候还可以与since then连用?为什么不是用“Since then,it has been part of my life.”?

    我感觉是两者是一样的。“已经成为”,汉语也这么说吧?!
