过去完成时
1.概念
（1）表示过去某时之前业已发生的动作，发生在前面的用过去完成时，发生在后面的用一般过去时。
（2）在过去某时之前，动作已经完成或结束。
（3）造成的是对过去的影响或结果，与现在没有关系。
（4）过去完成时一般都有过去时相衬托。
2.基本结构
S+had+动词的过分（P.P.）
When I got to the station the train had left.
I had been at the bus stop for over one hour when a bus finally came.
I had wanted to attend the meeting, but I fell ill.(未完成)
3.难点
（1）当几个动作用and， then, but等连词时，因为有动作先后顺序，须用一般过去时。
He stood up, took his coat and went out.
(2)如果有after, before, as soon as等连用，且清楚有动作先后，从句一般用过去时或过去完成时。
I told them the news after you (had) left
As soon as I (had) put the phone down it rang again.
They had already sold it when I asked the price of that car.
(3)注意固定搭配

(4)用于hope, intend, mean, think等词的过去完成时，表示未实现的愿望。

(5)用于expect, hope, want, think等词的过去时，表示“比……”。
