一、题干中直接性地给定时间状语
例1.How can you possibly miss the news? It ________ on TV all day long.(2004年高考北京卷)
A. has been B. had been
C. was D. will be
解析 选A 该题在语境中测试现在完成时的基本用法。根据语境中说话人前一分句所用动词时态(can miss)以及选项中所给时间状语all day long可知,说话人所强调的动作是到现在为止之前一直在进行的动作,而且还要继续下去的动作,故该题应选用现在完成时。选项B、C、D显然不符题意。
例2.All morning as she waited for the medical report from the doctor, her nervousness_____. (NMET 2003)
A. has grown B. is growing
C. grew D. had grown
解析 选C 该题测试一般过去时在由as引导的时间状语从句结构中的运用。分析句意可知,as在此引导时间状语从句,强调一边一边之意。主句的谓语动词与从句的谓语动词同时进行,且都发生在过去。这种情况下,as引导的主从句的谓语动词通常都用一般过去时。
例3.At this time tomorrow _______ over the Atlantic. (NMET2003北京)
A. were going to fly B. well be flying
C. well fly D. were to fly
解析 选B 该题测试将来进行时在含有将来时间状语的句式结构中的运用。分析句中时间状语at this time tomorrow表示将来具体某一时刻,说明句中谓语动词是在将来某一时刻要发生的事,且强调正在进行的动作,故应选用将来进行时。
例4.John and I _______ friends for eight years. We first got to know each other at a Christmas party. But we _______ each other a couple of times before that. (NMET 2002春)
A. had been; have seen
B. have been; have seen
C. had been; had seen
D. have been; had seen
解析 选D 该题题干长,信息量大,但题干中提供了具体时间状语,降低了测试难度。根据上下文语境,第一空句中谓语动词的动作强调到现在为止已有8年,故应用现在完成时;第二空句中时间状语before that,that代指的是we first got to know each other at a Christmas party,强调在过去某点时间之前所发生的事,故应选用过去完成时。
