本題現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)也是表示一個(gè)從過(guò)去延續(xù)到現(xiàn)在的動(dòng)作，不過(guò)是用since+動(dòng)作的起點(diǎn)時(shí)間來(lái)表達(dá)動(dòng)作的持續(xù)時(shí)間長(zhǎng)度。(延伸)be動(dòng)詞的現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)和since或for連用時(shí)，是表示一個(gè)從過(guò)去持續(xù)到現(xiàn)在的狀態(tài)，是現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)的第三種用法，如：He has been a Party memberfor five years．(since five years ago)．(他入黨已經(jīng)有五年了)(題型變化)Mr．Smith has worked as an engineer since 1980．(This is the year of 2005．)＝Mr．Smith has worked as an engineer for twenty-five years．(延伸)詢問(wèn)職業(yè)可以說(shuō)：What does he work as？What does he do？What's his job？What's his profession？What's his occupation？
