1. 當描述完自己的經驗時,是用 It was a good momory for me. 或是 It is a
good memory for me. 還有原因是什麼

記憶是一種經常不變的狀態, 應使用現在式.
不過, 如果此句是搭配其他過去式句子的話, 則時態要一致.
例如:
It was a good momory for me, so I went there again last month.


2.當在敘述自己練習騎腳踏車經驗時,說到 "最後我終於會騎腳踏車",這句是要用
Finally, I could ride a bike. 或是 Finally, I can ride a bike. 原因是什麼?

這句話如果是敘述學騎腳踏車的往事敘述最後一句, 語意是偏向於由不會騎到會騎的那一刻, Finally也標示了那個時刻, 故仍應以過去式較適宜.
不過, 語言是靈活的, 此處用現在式也正確, 語意則偏向現在的感覺.


3 當敘述別人幫你忙得經驗時,會說 I was very thankful to her and I will
keep her in mind. 還是 I am very thankful to her and I will keep her in mind.

這句話的後半部份是未來式, 表示現在對未來的意志, 所以要用am才適當.
如果後半句變一下, 前半句就要跟著變了:
I was very thankful to her and therefore, I gave her my scarf as a reward.

was是強調當時的感覺, 並不意味現在已不再感激.

1. 用 It is a good momory for me.

2. 用 Finally, I can ride a bike.

3. 用 I am very thankful to her and I will keep her in mind.

這類的用語雖然是敘述過去的事, 都要用現在式.

1. 的好的記憶一定是至今難忘, 仍然美好. 因此要用現在式.

2.的會騎腳踏車是至今仍會騎. 因此要用現在式.

3.的感謝應該是永記心頭. 因此要用現在式.
