How is the old man now? I regre to tell you he ____though the doctor did all they could to save him. A was dead B died C had died D has been dead单选解析
为什么不选A

Answer 1

正确答案b
A: 不是不对,是不够道地
c: had died 正在完成死掉 (死就死 哪有正在完成阿)
d: has been dead 理由同a c

be dead a.筋疲力尽,死的(通常是指 类似死的状态 但是还没死)
die V.死亡

He is so dead,because he has not finished my homework for tomorrow.他死定了,因为他还没写完明天要用的功课(实际上 他没有死)

He is dead有两种意思
1.他真的死了
2.他死定了(实际上没死)

He died in that car accident.他死於车祸
Die只有一种意思 就是死 而且100%死

这样的解释够详尽八
拜托选我八

Answer 2

选b
was dead表示状态，他是死的
但是died突出强调他死的这个事实

Answer 3

b
这个语境是一般现在时，所有如果要用dead的话，应该是is dead。选项a的时态错了。

Answer 4

B died
