动作先后、紧接着发生时，由于这些连词本身已经说明两个动作发生的先后关系，因此从句和主句的谓语动词均可用一般过去时。

He left the room after he (had) turned off the light.他把灯关上之后离开了房间。

4．过去完成时也用于hardly...when...；no sooner...than...等一些固定句型中。

He had hardly arrived when it began to snow.他刚到，天就开始下雪。

5．有些动词，如think，hope，expect，intend，mean，suppose，want等，在用过去完成时时，可以表示过去未实现的愿望和打算。

They had wanted to come，but they were too busy.

他们本来是要来的，但他们太忙了。

6．在it was the first time that句型中，that分句的动词常用过去完成时。

It was the first time that he had ever spoken to me in such a tune.

这是他第一次用这样的语调跟我讲话。
