典型例題

1) Mary ___ a dress when she cut her finger.

A. made　 B. is making　 C. was making　 D. makes

答案C. 割傷手指是已發(fā)生的事情，應(yīng)用過(guò)去時(shí)。同　時(shí)，when表時(shí)間的同時(shí)性，"瑪麗在做衣服時(shí)"提供事情發(fā)生的背景，因此用過(guò)去進(jìn)行時(shí)。

2) As she ___ the newspaper, Granny ___ asleep.

read; was falling　B. was reading; fell　C. was reading; was falling　D. read;fell

答案B.句中的as = when, while，意為"當(dāng)……之時(shí)"。描述一件事發(fā)生的背景時(shí)，用過(guò)去進(jìn)行;一個(gè)長(zhǎng)動(dòng)作發(fā)生的時(shí)候，另一個(gè)短動(dòng)作發(fā)生。句意為 "在她看報(bào)紙時(shí)，奶奶睡著了。"句中的 fell (fall的過(guò)去時(shí))，是系動(dòng)詞，后跟形容詞，如：fall sick。
