问题 选择题

It _____ quite a few years _____ the accused was declared innocent and set

free.

A.was; since

B.is; that

C.will be; when

D.was; before

答案

答案:D

如将A项中was, since改成is, since是正确的;即从句中谓语先发生。如用B项,是强调句,而强调句前后两个谓语动词在时间上必须一致(a);被强调部分能还回原句中(b),即因为句中was declared是过去时, B项中is改成was;因为句中was declared是非延续性动词,在years后加上ago将"一段" 时间变成"一点"就是正确的。C 项前后时间不一致。
