Question

7．这对夫妇结婚已经十年了．
The couple have been married for ten years．．

Answer 1

分析 The couple have been married for ten years．

解答 答案：The couple have been married for ten years．结婚marry这个动作发生在过去，持续了一段时间用现在完成时have/has+过去分词，主语the couple复数，故have，marry是短暂性动词，不能与一段时间 for ten years连用，故换成be married表状态，be的过去分词been，故答案是The couple have been married for ten years．

点评 短暂性动词也称非延续性动词、瞬间动词或点动词，表示不能延续的动作，这种动作发生后立即结束． 如：open，die，close，begin，finish，come，go，move，borrow，lend，buy，arrive等．不能和表示一段时间的状语连用．需要转换成表状态，或者持续性动词．
