昨天看美剧,主人公想表示这里有过枪战,说的是there has been a shooting.为什么不说there was a shooting?如果这么说,
另外,我想表达“他三年前得到了他高中以来一直想要的”能不能说he has got what he had been always wanted since high school 3 years ago

Answer 1

昨天看美剧,主人公想表示这里有过枪战,说的是there has been a shooting.为什么不说there was a shooting?如果这么说,
答：这就是现在完成时和一般过去时的区别所以.
现在完成时态是一个现在时态.事情是过去发生的,但说话者强调它对现在的影响和结果.（你看了结果,这里一片狼籍）
一般过去时只是就事论事地讲在过去发生过一件事情.不考虑它对现在的影响和结果.这时一般会指出过去的时间.会说：There was a shooting here yesterday.(你我可以一点都看不出来曾经发生过枪战）
另外,我想表达“他三年前得到了他高中以来一直想要的”能不能说he has got what he had been always wanted since high school 3 years ago
答：如果你想说一个过去的事实,不考虑它对现在影响,则用一般过去时：Three years ago,he finally got what he had wanted ever since he went to high school.
如果想要表达,这事对现在的影响或结果,则要用两句话表达（比汉语多一句）：
He has got what he has always wanted.He got it three years ago .
