下面的不同说法都是可以的:

It is three years since1 Ilastsaw2 Bill3

自从我(上次)和比尔见面到现在已经三年了。

It is three years since I have seen4 Bill

自我和比尔那次见面以来已经有三年了。

I last saw Bill three years ago

我最后一次见到比尔是在三年以前。

I havent seen Bill for three years

我已经有三年没见到过比尔了。

It is two months since Tomlast smoked a cigarette5

汤姆最后一次抽烟到现在已有两个月了。

It is two months since Tom has smoked a cigarette

汤姆已经两个月没抽烟了。

He last smoked a cigarette two months ago

他最后一次抽烟是两个月以前。

He hasnt smoked a cigarette for two months

他已经有两个月没有抽烟了。

我们可以用 it is since结构,不带副词 last

It is two years since he left the country

他离开这个国家已经两年了。

然而,如果想换用一个别的句式,则只能用下面的办法:

He left the country two years ago

他两年前离开了这个国家。

在这里不能像上面有关比尔的句子那样用现在完成时的否定形式。 He hasnt beenliving in this country for the last two years(这两年他没有在这个国家住过)是可以的,但与 He left two years ago(他离开两年了)意思不完全等同。这种结构可以用于一般过去时:

He invited6 me to go riding with him But it was7 two years since I had8 ridden a horse

他邀请我和他一起去骑马。但那时我已经两年没有骑马了。(在他邀请我之前,我已经有两年没有骑马了,所以我不知道自己是否还能骑得开心。)
