will和would表示习惯时的区别
will和would均可用于表示习惯或倾向——既可指某人特有的习惯,也可指事物的自然倾向。此时will和would的区别是:will表示现在的习惯或一般的规律,would表示过去的习惯。如:
She will get angry over nothing. 她老是无缘无故地发脾发。
Oil and water will not mix. 油和水混不起来。
In such cases, he would sit for hours without saying a word. 遇到这样的情况,他会一言不发,坐上几个小时。
He would sit there for hours sometimes doing nothing at all. 有时他在那里一坐几个钟头,什么也不做。
有时,也用于谈论某人令人不耐烦的习惯或倾向。如:
That’s just like him—he would lose his keys! 他就是这样,老丢钥匙!
Harriet will keep leaving her things all over the floor. 哈丽特总是把她的东西扔得满地都是。
