All the doctors in the hospital insisted that he ____ badly wounded and that he ____ at once. A．should be; be operated on B．were; must be operated on C．was; should be operated D．was; be operated on

Answer 1

D

insist后的从句谓语有时用“should+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气，有雹陪橡时不用，具体要看该谓语动词所表示的含义。一般说来，若该谓语动词所表示的动作尚未发生，或尚未成为事实，则用虚拟语气；若该谓语动词所表示的动作已经发生，或已经成为事乱塌实，则要用陈述源旁语气。分析上题的句意，可知只有选D最合适。
