否定形式：首先找句子中有没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could），如果有，只要在be动词或情态动词后面加上not。如果句子中没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could）那么在后面加入didn’t（无论主语是什么人称）。 一般疑问句：首先找句子中有没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could），如果有，只要将be动词或情态动词提前，放到主语前面。注意：句中第一人称和第二人称要互换。如果句子中没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could）那么在主语之前加入did。注意：句中第一人称和第二人称也要互换。 特殊疑问句：首先分析划线部分的意思，确定用哪个疑问词（what,where,who,when,which,whose,how,how many,how much,what shape,what colour,what?doing,where?going,what?do）,然后找句子中有没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could），如果有，只要将be动词或情态动词提前，放到主语前面。注意：句中第一人称和第二人称要互换。如果句子中没有be动词（was或者were）或情态动词（could）那么在主语之前加入did。注意：句中第一人称和第二人称也要互换。 【规则动词过去式构成形式】 规则动词的过去式由“动词原形+-ed”构成，具体变化有： 1.直接在词尾加-ed。 如:want—wanted,work—worked,need—needed,clean—cleaned 2.以不发音的e结尾的在词尾加-d。 如：like—liked,live—lived,use—used,move—moved 3.以一个元音字母加一个辅音字母结尾的重读闭音节动词，先双写结尾的辅音字母，再加-ed。如：stop—stopped,trip—tripped 4.以辅音字母加y结尾的动词，先把y变成i，再加-ed。 如：study—studied,carry—carried,hurry—hurried,marry—married 【不规则动词过去式】 P七·下142。
