摘　　要：英语动词过去时有时间指称、虚拟性和语用缓和等多种意义。经验互联是英语动词过去时意义扩展的理据,这些不同的感应概念都通过"距离"这一意象内容得以阐述。语用强化使得多种意义固化下来。Greenberg的句法自同构的实证研究佐证了我们的分析。关于英语过去时多种意义产生过程,经验互联是因,句法自同构是果。English past tense has multiple uses,such as time reference,counter-factuality and pragmatic softening. Experiential correlation motivates the expansion of meaning of past tense from time reference to non-temporal uses,these response concepts are elaborated through the same image content ‘distance＇.Pragmatic strengthening leads to the consolidation of the multiple meanings. Greenberg＇s case study of automorphism provides evidence for the rationality of the current study. As to the expansion of the multiple uses of English past tense,it can be said that experiential correlation is the motivation,and syntactic automorphism is the result.
