有一本语法书说：“‘be gone’意思是‘不见了’、‘完了’；‘have gone’意思是‘走了’、‘去了’。”难道“be gone”就没有“(人)走了”“(人)去了”的意思吗？
have gone 是 go 的现在完成时,从动作上来描述(人或车等)“走了”“去了”“离开了”。例如：
-
No sooner had I gone home than it began to rain heavily. (TOEFL) 我刚回家, 就下起了大雨。
-
“You ought to have gone to see your uncle yesterday.” “Yes, I should have.” (TOEFL) “你昨天应该去看你叔叔。” “是的，我本应该去的。”
-
“Did you submit your application for a master's degree?” “Not yet. If I hadn't gone to see my Father, I would have.” (TOEFL) “你申请硕士学位了吗?” “还没有。如果我没去看父亲的话，我就申请了。”
-
“She has gone,” he said, giving her the note. (Walpole) 他在把便条给她时说：“她走了。”
-
Morgot has gone to play ping-pong with some friends. (Mis) 摩戈特和几个朋友去玩乒乓球了。
-
I wish I had gone with you to the play last night. (TOEFL) 我真希望昨晚和你一起去看剧。
be gone 结构中的过去分词 gone 用作表语(主语补语)，它不表示动作，而表示状态。它除了作“没有了”“死了”“完了”解之外，也可以作“(人)走了”“(人)去了”解。
-
His job was gone. (Priestly) 他没有工作了。
-
The supplies are all gone. (MD) 供应品用完了。
-
“Father!” cried Fenella. But he was gone. (Mansfield) “爸爸!”芬内拉喊道。但是他已经走了。
-
