问题
选择题
Normally you could stay with us, but our house ______ at the moment.
A.is decorated
B.was decorated
C.is being decorated
D.was being decorated
答案
答案:C
题目分析:考查时态及被动语态的用法。句中前半句中的could 并非是过去时态,而是对现在的一种推测,因此由后半句中的at the moment“现在,目前”这一时间状语可确定时态应该用现在进行时,又由于房子与装修之间是被动关系,所以应该用现在进行时的被动语态。本句的意思是“一般地说你可以和我在一起,而我们家的房子目前正在装修”。故选C
点评:命题者在于考查学生容易出错点,学生看到了could认为是过去式,误选D,could表示推测学生容易忽视。
即学即练:The sports meeting ______in our school now.
