1.已经（用already时，英国英语中动词用完成时态，美国英语有时则用一般过去时）
You usealready to show that something has happened, or that something had happened before the moment you are referring to. Speakers of British English usealready with a verb in a perfect tense, putting it after 'have', 'has', or 'had', or at the end of a clause. Some speakers of American English usealready with the simple past tense of the verb instead of a perfect tense.

e.g. They hadalready voted for him at the first ballot...
在第一次投票选举时，他们已经投票给他了。
e.g. The group hasalready shed 10,000 jobs...
该集团已经裁去1万个工作岗位。

2.早已（用于be动词或助动词之后，或一般动词之前，表示强调时可置于句首）
You usealready to show that a situation exists at this present moment or that it exists at an earlier time than expected. You usealready after the verb 'be' or an auxiliary verb, or before a verb if there is no auxiliary. When you want add emphasis, you can putalready at the beginning of a sentence.

e.g. The authorities believe those security measures arealready paying off...
当局相信那些安全措施已经奏效。
e.g. He wasalready rich...
他已经很富有了。

already is often used to add emphasis or to suggest that it is surprising that something has happened so soon.They were already eating their lunch.

There are still plenty of horses round here. You useyet in negative sentences and in questions. It is often used to add emphasis, to suggest surprise that something has not happened, or to say that it will happen later. Have you seen it yet?... The troops could not yet see the shore... It isn't dark yet. In British English,already andyet are usually used with the present perfect tense.I have already started knitting baby clothes... Have they said sorry yet? In American English, a past tense is commonly used.She already told the neighbors not to come... I didn't get any sleep yet. This usage is becoming more common in British English.
