问题
选择题
—Ouch! You hurt me.
—I'm sorry. But I ________ any harm. I ________ to drive a rat out.
A．don't mean; am trying
B．didn't mean; tried
C．haven't meant; tried
D．didn't mean; was trying
答案
答案：D
D 考察动词时态。—哎呀！你伤到我了。—对不起，但我不是有意要伤你的。我当时正尽力把一只老鼠赶出去。由hurt这一动作发生在过去可知，第一空应该使用一般过去时。且根据句义可知，try这一动作不是在过去某个时间正在进行，所以第二空应该使用过去进行时。
