Русскому словосочетанию провести время в английском языке соответствуют to spand time и to pass the time. Словосочетание to spand time обычно употребляется с последующим герундием to spand time doing smth и обозначает отводить чему-либо время/заниматься чем-либо/быть чем-либо занятым. Сочетание to pass the time указывает на период времени, который чем-либо заполнен в ожидании какого-то другого действия или события: There was an hour before the train so I passed the time reading newspapers. До поезда остался час, и я занялся чтением газет. Русскому сочетанию хорошо провести время соответствует английское сочетание to have a good time. (2.) Указание на время совершения действия передается разными словосочетаниями и конструкциями: at one time когда-то; earlier раньше/до чего-либо; once однажды; some time когда-нибудь/как-нибудь; sometimes иногда; afterwards после; in the last few days за последние несколько дней; at once сейчас же/немедленно; before long вскоре; immediately немедленно; in future в будущем; soon вскоре; just now только что; now сейчас; nowadays в наше время; the other day на днях/недавно; right now/away тут же/немедленно; one of these days на днях/через несколько дней; sooner or later рано или поздно; at the moment в данный момент; at persent в настоящее время; in a moment через несколько минут; in time своевременно/вовремя; on time вовремя/по расписаниюUSAGE:(1.) Русское сочетание "в первый (в последний) раз" эквивалентно сочетаниям со словом time 5.: for the first (last) time, которое обычно стоит в конце предложения. В начале предложения чаще употребляется беспредложная конструкция: The first (last) time I saw him was... Первый раз (в последний раз) я его видел в.... Вместо этих словосочетаний может использоваться наречие first (last), которое стоит перед смысловым глаголом или в конце предложения: When did you see her first (last)? He first met the man a year ago. (2.) Наречные обороты относительного времени in time, on time и in a moment обычно стоят в конце предложения. (3.) See first, adj, adv (4.) See last adj, adv -
