英语高考题
---Someone is knocking on the door.Shall I _____? ---Sure. It must be Jenny. She ____to come at this hour. A. open; has promised B.open; was promising C. answer; had promised D. answer; promised 正确答案是D.请问,第一个空可不可以是open.第二个空可不可以用has promised
answer表回应,对外界刺激的一种反应,既然有人敲门,这就是一种回应。此外,英语中还有answer the phone(接电话)一说,如The telephone is ringing ,shall i answer it? 而open the door则不一定要有外界刺激,题中既然有人敲门,用answer照应,较好。故排除AB Sure,it must be 表明门内人知道来者是谁,为什么知道来者是谁呢?后文照应说 杰妮答应这个时候来,那她什么时候答应来呢?显然是在这之前,因此用一般过去式,而用完成时往往强调对现在造成的影响,此处无,如果说I open the door waiting for jenny because she has promised to come.则有影响。
