请问这个地方为什么时态是用现在式的呢
新概念1的第69课中：“In 1995, there was a very big race.
There were hundreds of people there. My wife and I were at the race. Our friends Julie and Jack were there, too. You can see us in the crowd. We are standing on the left.”为什么此处“ You can see us in the crowd. We are standing on the left”是用现在式呢?

Answer 1

说话者一定正指着照片在说这段话.
用现在式是指照片中的人作为照片的构成要素时的状态,而不是这些人当时的动作.
所以用现在式
