Though I was tired out that evening, I _____ from falling asleep by the great pain in my knee.
A．was prevented
B．had prevented
C．has prevented
D．am prevented
A
题目分析：考查时态语态：句意：虽然我那天晚上很累，膝盖上的疼痛让我不能入睡。从Though I was tired out that evening,可知是一般过去式，而且I和prevent是被动关系，选A。
点评：英语中的时态主要由动词的形式决定，因此在学习英语时态时，要注意分析动词形式及具体语境，想象在那个特定的时间动作所发生的背景，这个动作是经常性动作、一般性动作、进行性动作、完成性动作还是将要发生的动作。。

| In 2006,I spent 3 glorious weeks in South Africa.It was my first time traveling on the African continent and truly each day was filled with one adventure after another.That was the craziest and the most dangerous experience I have ever had. On the morning of the excursion,I met with my friends for breakfast,with little conversation.I supposed we were nervous about the day ahead of us.The coach then drove us from Cape Town to Dyer Island in Gansbaii. As soon as we got to our destination,we were quickly pushed into a boat.About 2 hours into the boat we spotted our first shark.It was one of the world's deadliest predators(食肉动物)-a Great White shark Our guide told us that we had to get into the water immediately.Without any formal preparation or instruction,we put our thick wet suits on and jumped into the iron cage. There I was in this tiny cage with 3 Great White sharks circling around me.I tried desperately to take pictures with my underwater camera,not letting my hands and feet drift(漂)out of the cage. When I took a breath,life above the water seemed chaotic(混乱的)．But,I would drop back under the water and life would seem to stop existing.And the sharks that always appeared frightening on TV or in photographs actually appeared peaceful in person. After an hour,I decided it was probably time for me to get out once the sharks started to become really aggressive.I waited until the very last second I could,since I knew I would probably never do this again. |
