时态是英语中一个重要的语法范畴，它表示不同时间发生的动作或存在的状态以及动作发生或存在的方式。下面是小编收集整理的初中英语一般过去时态练习题，大家一起来看看吧!
初中英语一般过去时态练习题:
1. —What do you think of the movie?
—It’s fantastic. The only pity is that I ______ the beginning.
A. missed B. had missed C. miss D. would miss
解析:答案选 A。根据问句的意思(你觉得这部电影如何)可知，答话者已看了这部电影，所以“错过电影的开头”应用一般过去时。
2. —I’ve got to go now.
—Must you? I ______ you could stay for dinner with us.
A. think B. thought C. have thought D. am thinking
解析:答案选 B。既然现在对方提出要走了，所以，以为对方要留下来吃晚饭的想法肯定就是过去想法，故用一般过去时。I thought…在这类句型中通常译为“我原以为……”“我还以为……”。又如:I thought you’d be like your sister, but you’re quite different. 我本以为你会像你姐姐，但是你们俩完全不一样。
3. —Ann is in hospital.
—Oh, really? I ______ know. I ______ go and visit her.
A. didn’t; am going to B. don’t; would C. don’t; will D. didn’t; will
解析:答案选 D。根据句意，在此之前说话人不知道安住院了，因此第一空用一般过去时;说话人打算去看她，这个动作还没发生，因此第二空用一般将来时。注意be going to与will表示将来的区别:表示临时的决定，要用be going to，不用will。
4. Bob would have helped us yesterday, but he ______.
A. was busy B. is busy C. had been busy. D. will be busy
解析:答案选 A。but…引出的句子谈论的是事实，故应用陈述语气，由于是谈论昨天的情况，故用一般过去时。全句意为:鲍勃昨天是要帮助我们的，但他太忙了。
5. Excuse me. I ______ I was blocking your way.
A. didn’t realize B. don’t realize C. haven’t realized D. wasn’t realizing
解析:答案选 A。该句的谈话背景是:一个人挡住了另一个人的路，于是他说“对不起，我没有意识到我挡了你的路”。显然，当这个人说“对不起，我没有意识到……”的时候，显然他说话的时候是“意识到了”，也就是说“没有意识到”在他道歉的时候已属过去了，故要用一般过去时。

7. — Bob has gone to California.
—Oh, can you tell me when he ______?

过去进行时用法:
(1)动词wonder, hope, think, want等的过去进行时表示语气委婉、客气。如:

过去完成时与一般过去时的区别:
①当几个过去的动作用and, then, but等连接, 且按照动作发生的先后顺序表达时，几个动作均可用一般过去时。如:

On Saturday afternoon, Mrs. Green went to the market, bought some bananas and visited her cousin. 星期六下午，格林夫人去市场买了些香蕉，看了她的堂兄。
I bought a radio but lost it. 我买了一部收音机，但丢了。
②由after, before, as soon as 等连词引导时间状语从句，由于这些连词已经清楚地表明了主从句谓语动词的先后顺序，几个动作均可用一般过去时。如:
I told them the news after you (had) left. 你走后我把这消息告诉了他们。
As soon as I (had) put the phone down it rang again. 我刚把电话一放下，它又响了。
③在一定的语境中，表示过去未曾实现想法或打算的过去完成时也可用一般过去时表示:
He hoped to come with us, but he was too busy. 他本想同我们一起来的，但他太忙了。
I thought I could go, but I can’t. 我原认为我能去，但我(现在)去不了。
