He always does this
原文：What had happened to the writer's bag?
After I had had lunch at a village pub,I looked for my bag.I had left it on a chair beside the door and now it wasn't there!As I was looking for it,the landlord came in.
'Did you have a good meal?" he asked.
'Yes,thank you,' I answered,'but I can't pay the bill.I haven't got my bag.'
The landlord smiled and immediately went out.In a few minutes he returned with my bag and gave it back to me.
'I'm very sorry,' he said.'My dog had taken in into the garden.He often does this!'
課文在敘述過去一件事情,這一課講過去完成時(shí),說過去發(fā)生的一前一后的兩個(gè)事情,前面發(fā)生的用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí),后面發(fā)生的用過去時(shí),但是In a few minutes he returned with my bag and gave it back to me.很明顯,他必須要先拿著包回來,才能把包還給我,應(yīng)該是前半句過去完成時(shí),后半句過去時(shí)才對,而這句話用and就把前后發(fā)生的兩件事兒給連接了,那么如果這樣可以的話,我們是不是可以省事點(diǎn),以后都用這種句式,而不去折騰過去完成時(shí)呢
In a few minutes he returned with my bag and gave it back to me.這句為什么就不用過去完成時(shí)呢
