兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上相繼發(fā)生的動(dòng)作，用and或but按動(dòng)作發(fā)生的先后順序連接，此時(shí)要用一般過去時(shí)，而不用過去完成時(shí)。過去完成時(shí)則強(qiáng)調(diào)主語在過去某一時(shí)刻回顧更早的動(dòng)作。具體來說，當(dāng)我們?cè)谡務(wù)撨^去某一事件時(shí)，想到了在這之前已發(fā)生的某事，這時(shí)可以用過去完成時(shí)態(tài)。

在表示兩個(gè)相繼發(fā)生的動(dòng)作時(shí)，用過去完成時(shí)可以表示在一個(gè)動(dòng)作完成以后，另一個(gè)動(dòng)作才開始發(fā)生，從而使得兩個(gè)動(dòng)作相互獨(dú)立，彼此脫離開來。用一般過去時(shí)，則可能表示一個(gè)動(dòng)作的發(fā)生“導(dǎo)致”另一個(gè)動(dòng)作的發(fā)生，或兩個(gè)動(dòng)作之間有因果關(guān)系。
