它用于表达某人未出席或未出现在某个具体的地点、事件或场合(如学校、会议、课堂、工作等)。
主语(通常是人) + be动词(根据时态/人称变化) + absent from + 地点/事件名词(或代词)
关键说明:“from”是介词,后面必须接名词、代词或动名词(但更常见的是接具体的场所/事件名词);
强调“不在某个特定的范围/场合内”(区别于“be absent in”,后者表示“在外地/在某个地方”,如“He is absent in Beijing.” 意为“他在北京,不在此处”)。
根据不同时态(现在、过去、将来),be动词会相应变化:
1、 一般现在时(描述常态或当前状态)
She is often absent from class. (她经常缺课。)
Are you absent from work today? (你今天没上班吗?)
2、 一般过去时(描述过去的缺席状态)
He was absent from the meeting yesterday. (他昨天缺席了会议。)
They were absent from the party last weekend. (他们上周末没参加派对。)
3、 一般将来时(描述未来的缺席计划)
I will be absent from school next Monday. (我下周一不会上学。)
Will you be absent from the wedding? (你会缺席婚礼吗?)
absent from school/class(缺课)
absent from work(旷工/没上班)
absent from the meeting(缺席会议)
absent from the party/event(没参加派对/活动)
absent from home(不在家)
be absent from 是状态描述(强调“处于缺席状态”);
absent oneself from 是主动行为(强调“主动使自己缺席”,主语需是“人”),例如:
He absented himself from the lecture. (他主动缺席了讲座。)
