　　这篇文章的基调事态是一般现在时态, 用于对文章的主题”存钱”进行客观的讲述, 客观的分析在现在的生活中如何存钱.文章中句子的时态, 无论是主句时态还是从句时态一般都与现在时态相关

　　要点回顾:

　　主句和从句时态一致性;

　　文章中相临语句时态通常彼此呼应, 一致;

　　英语中的动词语态是用来说明句中主语与谓语之间关系的动词形式。英语语态有两种:主动语态(Active Voice)和被动语态(Passive Voice)。主动语态表示主语是谓语动作的执行者,被动语态表示主语是谓语动作的承受者。我们在实际应用中经常会碰到被动语态的句子，如：

　　理工类from Please Fasten Your Seatbelt

　　“laser pulses are sent ahead of the plane and these are then reflected back by particles in the air.”

　　被动语态的结构在职称英语的文章中, 甚至在考题中出现的频率都较高, 如:

　　2005年理工类阅读判断文章The Smog

　　But smog is not just an Asian problem. In fact, the word was first used in London in 1905 to describe the mixture of smoke and thick fog. … Sometimes the smog was so thick and poisonous that people were killed by breathing problems or in accidents.

　　在文章后面的问题中被动语态也是频繁地被使用, 如:The Smog这篇文章后面的第6题:

　　6. The forest animals haven’t been affected by the smog.
