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。! a7 }+ L7 f) @& v2 e& a& a" q
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。4 S$ k8 o! p" f0 g5 M& o0 [" \

B: Yeah. He was born to a family of sailors. He has travelled all over the world.
# E$ q0 Q0 O( ^, o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。

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。
