英文時式一問!快幫我!

其實你問得有少少亂.

首先,are you waiting for someone?這句是現在進行式的問句.
用DO只取代ARE會變成Do you waiting for someone?這句子是錯的,因為英文並沒有這個時態(TENSE).

反而do you wait for someone?這句卻是對的,因為這句是現在式的問句.

當然現在進行式的問句和現在式的問句是不同的.(前者強調一個動作正在進行和後者是講一些FACT,HABBIT之類而用.)


另外,hurry up,Tim.everybody______(waits/is waiting)for you.’這裏應用IS WAITING,因為想強調這一刻人在等著他.


這問題有如一句我見過的例如,格式和情況想似.希望你明白.
Watch out! the car is coming.

Dan：
I (am), He (is), She (is), It (is) You (are), We (are), They (are)等的am, is, are
在文法上叫verb to be, ' 是動詞', 因它們每個也解作' 是',' 係' 的意思。
所以在你的句子空檔內應填上'is waiting',令句子成為
"Hurry up Tim, everybody is waiting for you." 快些啊, 添,每個人也等着(緊)你。因為等待wait是動作,所以等着(等緊)是現在繼續的動作所以在英文也要用present continuous tense,'is waiting'了。
我於上週解答了一條如你現在發問一模一樣的問題而獲選為最佳答案, 我希望
你按出來細心觀看, 我想你便會明白了, 包括你問的補充問題。你不須給點數我, 若我的解釋能使你明白就是我最大的收獲了。

祝你學業進步 !

1) is waiting, 因為是說話, 講緊現在, 所以用現在進行式.
2) are you waiting for someone
不可以轉do, 因為說話的意思是"你係唔係等緊人?" 所以一定要要現在進行式, are you waiting

1)
"Hurry up, Tim. Everybody IS WAITING for you."
(The action is 'present' -- it's happening at the moment. So we use "is+[verb]+ing" to represent the action.)
E.g.
We are EATING. [correct]
We EAT. [incorrect]


2)
"ARE you waiting for someone?" [correct]
"DO you wait for someone?" [incorrect]
