Ask & Learn闻问切英语口语:拍檔工作
读者 Dean 来电邮问：John 和他拍檔工作，Peter 却来追问有关情况，以下哪个回答比较好？
1. I had John working as a team/for me.
2. I had John worked as a team/for me.
其实要表达上述意思，最简单的回答是 "John and I are working as a team." （过去时态："John and I were working as a team."）。
如果要按照 Dean 建议的句子结构，我们可以说 "I had John working as a team with me."。
既然是拍档，就不宜说谁为谁工作，所以 for 不太合适。
至于第二句 "I had John worked as a team for me." 不合文法，若改成 "I had John work as a team." 尚可，但依上面提到的原因，for 还是需要改成 with 才行。
