Question

He _ on the bed_ to his parents that blackbirds had _ their eggs on Mars.

A lay;lying;lied B lied;lie;lied C laid;laid;laid D lying;lied;laid 选哪个？

Answer 1

A
过去式 完成式
lie (撒谎) lied lied
lie (躺) lay lain
lay(产卵，下蛋) laid laid

“他躺在床上跟父母撒谎说黑鸟已经在火星上产卵了。”
选项 A 应该改为lay; lying; laid

追问

答案是D。怎么理解啊。

追答

答案不对。
选a 是因为第一个lay是“躺”的过去式，第二个lying是撒谎的分词形式，现在分词作伴随状语。伴随状语要么放在谓语动词的后面，要么放在句首。

Answer 2

四个选项没有一个正确的：
He lay on the bed lying to his parents that blackbirds had laid their eggs on Mars.

如果是答案是D的话，应该是：
Lying on the bed, he lied to his parents that blackbirds had laid their eggs on Mars.
