A Present perfect tense 现在完成时态
现在完成时态常用来谈论过去发生的事情对现在产生的影响。也就是说某一个事情虽然发生在过去，但跟现在有关系。它由“have(has) + 动词的过去分词”构成。
Eg. Eddie has lived with Millie since he was born. Eddie自从出生以来就和Millie 住在一起。
We have seen the film already. 我们已经看过这个电影了。
现在完成时态的否定句是“have(has) not +动词的过去分词”。

Mr. and Mrs. Li have not come back yet.
现在完成时态的一般疑问句是把 have (has) 调到主语的前面。
Eg. Have you heard the story? Yes, I have. /No, I haven’t. 你听过这个故事吗？ 听过/没听过。
Has Daniel talked to his cousin? Yes, he has. / No. he hasn’t. Daniel 和他的堂兄谈过了吗？ 谈过/没谈过 。
