The school board listened quietly as Jack read the demands that his classmates ______ forward. A．be putting B．had put C．were put D．have put

Answer 1

B

试题分析：句意：当杰克宣读他的同学提出的要求时，学校董事会成员静静地听着。这里read用的是过去式，而同学们提出的要求是在宣读之前。所以故用过去完成时。从classmates与put forward之间是主动关系。故选B。 点评：本题难度适中。动词时态与语态也是高中阶段的重难点之一，需要考生能够理解句意进而对动词的时态做出正确的判断。过去完成时是相对时态，在句中必须能找出它的相对的时态—过去式。 即学即练：They ________ a snowstorm on their way home. A.caught in        B.had caught   C.were caught       D.were caught in   解析：D。句意：他们在回家的路上遇到了暴风雪。
