More info on "historic/historical present". 說故事或敍述時一般用過去時態, 但如果要使故事顯得生動、像正在發生一樣, 可用現在時態; simple present 可用於動作和狀態。 Example: 1) There's a loud explosion behind us. Then I hear Chris giggling. Sylvia is upset. 2) He pulls the van into the decrepit terrace. 3) He packs and hurries indoors. 4) Tony is crying hard and the others look over from the other tables. 4) She sits down at the desk chair, reaches for the telephone and dials a number. Hth.
