30、n B. did he hideC. has he hidden D. was he hidden 1. B. when引導(dǎo)的是一個非限制性定語從句，when指20世紀(jì)90年代初，當(dāng)然用一般過去時。2. A. 這是“祈使句+and +陳述句”句型，祈使句相當(dāng)于一個條件狀語從句，and后的陳述句的謂語用一般將來時，這是一個較為固定的句型。3. D. 因?yàn)镴ane已經(jīng)度假去了，“離開”此地就當(dāng)然是在此之前的過去某個時間了，所以用一般過去時，選D。另外，when通常都不與完成時連用，排除B和C，A也與語境不符。4. D. 過去進(jìn)行時在此表示過去準(zhǔn)備要做的事。句意為：(Tony給我打電話時)我剛好做完

31、工作，準(zhǔn)備去沖涼。5. A. 由now可知前句的意思是：我曾經(jīng)叫你不要搬動我的詞典的 (你偏不聽)?！敖小笔窃谶^去發(fā)生的動作，用一般過去時。6. C. 根據(jù)句意“我不知道Sam現(xiàn)在是否已經(jīng)做完了作業(yè)，(但是我知道)他今天早上一直在做作業(yè)”，可知要用過去進(jìn)行時7. B. 由Whats=What is可知，現(xiàn)在在出聲音；進(jìn)而知道“鄰居們正在為一個晚會作準(zhǔn)備”，所以用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時態(tài)。再說，已經(jīng)準(zhǔn)備好了或者將作準(zhǔn)備，我們不可能聽得到聲音，問句也就不成立了，排除A和D。8. B. 根據(jù)but she hasnt decided yet (尚未決定) 可知，從開始失業(yè)時起一直在考慮再去上學(xué)，現(xiàn)在還在考慮。表

32、示從過去某一時刻開始一直到現(xiàn)在，并且現(xiàn)在依然在發(fā)生的動作，用現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時，現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時由“have/has been doing”構(gòu)成，所以選B。9. A. 由when the earthquake struck可知，要用一般過去時，排除C和D；又因?yàn)橹髡Z是單數(shù)the teacher，所以只有A正確。10. D. 由whenwas brought in可知，come也是過去發(fā)生的事，用一般過去時。句意是：當(dāng)引入一個有趣的話題時，那場討論又變得活躍起來。11. C. 由all the T-shirts are sold at half price可知，這家商店還沒有關(guān)閉，但準(zhǔn)備將要關(guān)閉，所以

33、選C，用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時表示最近的打算。12. A. “祈使句+or+陳述句”句型中，陳述句的謂語用“will+動詞原形”，幾乎是固定的。句意是：讓我們扣住主題吧，否則，我們就作不了決定。13. D. 因?yàn)閣as saying表明“他說”發(fā)生在過去，“沒聽到”應(yīng)該是“他說”的時候沒聽到，所以miss也是發(fā)生在過去，而miss作“未聽見、未理解”解時，一般沒有進(jìn)行時，因此，只有D正確。句意是：我的注意力當(dāng)時并沒有集中在他所說的內(nèi)容上，所以恐怕有一半我都沒聽到。14. D. 根據(jù)括號內(nèi)的18471931可知，此處應(yīng)填過去時態(tài)；另外，由于沒有另一個過去的時間或動作與之比較，故不能用過去完成時，即只能選D。

34、15. A. 句意是：(你來我家時) 我正在機(jī)場等候一位從England來的朋友。表示在過去某一時刻或在過去某一段時間內(nèi)正在發(fā)生的事，用過去進(jìn)行時，所以選A。16. A. 因?yàn)閠hat is意為“換句話說，即 (=in other words, which means)”，而前句中的謂語has set是現(xiàn)在完成時，后一句的謂語動詞也應(yīng)用現(xiàn)在完成時，排除C和D；又因主語the sales是復(fù)數(shù)，選出正確答案A。17. D. 因?yàn)橛烧Z境可知，see應(yīng)當(dāng)發(fā)生在kept looking之前，即過去的過去，所以用過去完成時，只有D正確。18. B. 因?yàn)閣ould wait是過去將來時，可見此事發(fā)生在過

35、去，再結(jié)合for two hours可知，wait這個動作是從過去某一時刻開始一直延續(xù)到另一個過去時刻，并且還在等，一直要等到那位影星到來，所以用過去完成進(jìn)行時：had been doing，因此選B。19. C. 由came可知，她已來重慶了，而改變發(fā)型是在來重慶之前，即過去的過去，按理要用過去完成時，但before已經(jīng)表明緊接著發(fā)生的先后兩個動作，所以也可用一般過去時，所以選C。 20. C. 句中的since為副詞，表示“從過去某時起一直到現(xiàn)在”，它通常要與現(xiàn)在完成時連用。21. D。由句中的sooner（意為“早點(diǎn)兒”）可知用一般過去時。句意為“對不起，我沒有早點(diǎn)兒說。我確實(shí)認(rèn)為你穿很

36、好看” (from )。22. C。her nervousness（緊張）伴隨waited（等）的過程而產(chǎn)生，因此grow與waited同時發(fā)生，時態(tài)一致，都用一般過去時。23. B。stay是系動詞不能用被動語態(tài)，故排除A；系動詞一般不用于進(jìn)行時(feel除外)，故排除C；stay為非延續(xù)性動詞，不能與表示一段時間的狀語連用，故排除D。句意為“你為什么不把肉放在冰箱里呢？那樣會保質(zhì)好幾天”。24. A。根據(jù)句中all day long來判斷，此句是強(qiáng)調(diào)播放新聞對現(xiàn)在的影響，故用現(xiàn)在完成時。意為“你怎么可能沒看到新聞？整天都在播放”。25. C。用過去進(jìn)行時態(tài)表示過去某一特定時刻正在進(jìn)行的動作

37、。此處是指“我”的話在被打斷前正在談?wù)摰那闆r。句意為“對不起打斷你的話，請繼續(xù)”?！拔艺f哪兒了？”“你在說你不喜歡你父親的工作”。26. C。由I arrived late可知是過去的情況。I hadt expected表示過去沒有料到。句意為“我遲到了。我沒料到路面結(jié)冰”。27. C。while 從句用過去進(jìn)行時，主句用過去時，表示在某個動作的持續(xù)過程中，發(fā)生過某事。句意為“我在讀英語課本時睡著了。幸虧我的室友及時叫醒了我”。28. C。句意為“盡管他和我們生活了好多年，但沒給我們留下多少印象”。根據(jù)前句中的現(xiàn)在完成時可知，下句是強(qiáng)調(diào)的現(xiàn)在的狀態(tài)，因此用一般現(xiàn)在時。29. D?！拔业钠古仪虼?/p>

38、得好”是現(xiàn)在具有的技能，故用一般現(xiàn)在時。下句“但自新年以來還一直沒有時間去打”。與前句謂語動詞的時態(tài)無關(guān)。30. A。由句中的recently和by now兩個提示可知此句用現(xiàn)在完成時。31. D. “死”與“寫(遺書)”都發(fā)生在過去，顯然“寫”應(yīng)發(fā)生在“死”之前，即：過去的過去。因此，die用一般過去時，write用過去完成時。32. A. 根據(jù)后文可知，“她現(xiàn)在依然在工作”，表示從過去某一時刻開始，一直延續(xù)到現(xiàn)在，并且現(xiàn)在仍然在進(jìn)行的動作或存在的狀態(tài)，就用現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時，即：have been doing33. D. 從began是一般過去時可知，go也用一般過去時，read應(yīng)發(fā)生在beg

39、an to wonder之前，所以要用過去完成時。34. B. 從wanted是過去式，可知打電話發(fā)生在過去，“我”現(xiàn)在不知道，因?yàn)楫?dāng)有人打電話來時，“我”正在沖涼。表示在過去某一時刻正在發(fā)生的動作，當(dāng)然用過去進(jìn)行時。35. C. 從問句中usually goes to work來看，是問通常的情況，其回答也應(yīng)該是指通常的情況，因此要用一般現(xiàn)在時，即：“如果天氣好，他通常是步行上班的”。注意：千萬不要認(rèn)為條件句中的謂語動詞用一般現(xiàn)在時，而主句中的謂語動詞就用一般將來時，而錯選A或C。36. D. 意為：“你打電話來時，我可能正在洗淋浴”。指在過去某個時候正在發(fā)生的動作，用過去進(jìn)行時。37. A. 句意為：“我在學(xué)校學(xué)法語期間，經(jīng)常使用錄音機(jī)”。指過去經(jīng)常發(fā)生的動作，當(dāng)然用3一般過去時。38. D. 問句是對過去情況猜測，答句I didnt的完整句子是I didnt meet him the ot
