首先要指出的是,最能体现出英语思维的地方就是“时态”的运用。英语对时间表达的精确性远胜过中文,这种英语思维在汉语中的天然缺失,使得国人对英语时态的学习要么不够重视,置之不理,要么异常艰难。5 ] L% H" k5 R: b/ ~ Q) n5 s
再者,所有英语时态的讨论只能建立在具体的语境中,任何孤立的句子都是没有意义的,完成时更是如此。楼主能提出这样的问题,说明注意力已经开始关注起英语中比较微妙的地方。

B: Yeah. He was born to a family of sailors. He has travelled all over the world.
! l9 M% C" U2 F+ R这个对话中完成时的意义就是“他周游过全世界”。既不是正在周游,也不是近期在周游,而是表达出了一种已经走遍世界的结果,这一“成果”已经成了事实。

B: Why, he is not at home. He has a long vacation every year. He is now travelling all over the world!
- H, F0 v2 K n2 q& U2 ^% m这里当然不能用完成时。这里的进行时显然表达了Mike正在环游世界的过程中。, D# j; T9 S2 |; w$ X2 |

B:Why, didn't you know that? He has been travelling all over the world!
4 N4 C2 b A4 {, s L" e2 n5 L- Z3 |4 \这里的现在完成进行时表达的是Charlie在从过去到现在的很长一段时间内,反复从事某个活动,即他这些年来反反复复的出国旅行。% v: J7 y0 Q) l1 V8 B: a, Z4 p! n

这里只是个人物介绍,所以只用过去式。

例:
8 F. V8 z" ^8 Z) K# l1 d- x: C& OHe takes his beloved dog Queenie with him every time he travels all over the world.
( H. |$ y* X, ]一般现在时不一定就是“发生在现在的事情”,其本质思维是用于不受时间限制的动作。比如这个例句是在说”他每次周游世界都带上狗“。这里没有以前,现在和将来的时间概念。
