I didn’t know your telephone number; otherwise, I ______ you long ago. A．had rung B．have rung C．would have rung D．would ring

Answer 1

C

试题分析：考查隐含的虚拟语气：句意：--我不知道你的电话号码，否则，我早就会给你打电话了。这里的Otherwise相当于="if" I had known your phone number.，所以主句用would have done，选C。 点评：有时，句子没有直接给出假设情况的条件，而须通过上下文或其他方式来判断。这题用了Otherwise代替if的虚拟语气，主句是1、表示与现 在事实相反的情况，主语+should/would/could/might+do：　2、表示与过去事实相反的情况，主句：主语+should/would/could/might+have done　3、表示对将来情况的主观推测，主句：主语+should/would/could/might+do
