It is time (that) 从句所使用的7种形式解析
It is time (that) 后所接的从句采用的时态是did一般过去时或should do其中的should不省略的两种形式。
 
即
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + did
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + should do
 
事实上，It’s (high/about) time (that) 后所接的从句还可以使用四种其他形式:
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + ought to do
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + was/were doing
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + could do
 
It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + do
 
It's (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + are doing
 
第1种形式：It’s (high/ about) time (that) + 主语 + did
 
It’s time (that) sb did sth/ was doing sth并提供了相应的例句：
 
Isn’t it time these students went to school? 这些孩子们是不是该上学了？
 
It’s about time 到了该做某事的时候
 
It’s about time he got himself a proper job. 他该给自己找一份合适的工作。
 
It’s high time到了该做某事的时候

it’s time sb did sth/ was doing sth （= used when saying that someone should do something soon）
 
某人不久该做某事：
 
It’s time we had a party. 我们该举行一次聚会了。
 
it’s (high) time和it’s about time
 
这两个用语和过去时或虚拟语气连用时指现在和将来：
 
It’s (high) time he was (or were) taught a lesson.
 
现在是该教训他的时候了。
 
It’s about time he learnt to look after himself.
 
现在已是他该学会照顾自己的时候了。
 
（= the time has come现已到时候了）
 
It’s (high) time和It’s about time之后不可以否定结构，但可以用于简略答语：
 
I still haven’t thanked Aunt Lucy for her present.
 
对露西姑姑送的礼物我还没有表示感谢呢。
 
—It’s time you did.
 
你早该谢谢她了。（你已拖得太久了）
 
试比较it’s time的用法：
 
We’ve enjoyed the evening, but it’s time (for us) to go.
 
今晚我们过得很愉快，不过（我们）该走了。（即：现在是我们该走的时候了）
 
We’ve enjoyed the evening, but it’s time we went.
 
今晚我们过得很愉快，不过我们早该走了。（即：我们应该比现在走得早）
 
It’s time that引导的同位语从句中的虚拟式：
 
“It’s time that…”中的that是连词，应看作是time的同位语从句，that在口语中可以省略。传统语法说这是定语从句的观点是错误的。
 
2 It’s (high) time (that) we went to bed.

It is (high) time to develop our high technology industry.
 
该发展我们的高科技产业了。
 
（= It is time (that) we developed（或should develop）our high technology industry. 这里用关系副词that引出定语从句，修饰名词time。 that和should还可省略。developed和should develop是虚拟语气的形式。）
 
《下面几句都可以说：
 
It is [was] (high [about]) time for her to go to school.
 
It is [was] (high [about]) time (that) she went to school.
 
It is [was] (high [about]) time (that) she should go to school.
