Question

两道英语题目.....................................

A,had been B,has been C,had joined D,has joined

2 Tom asked___________
A,if the students will attend the report next Monday
B,when did the students have a talk yesterday
C,how many students would take part in the meeting next week

Answer 1

A the end of last year说明应用过去式
join不是连续性动词，不能与for more than twenty years 搭配，只能用be来表示状态.
所以had been

C其实就是道改错题
B正确形式：Tom asked （that）when the students had a talk yesterday.
A正确形式：Tom asked （that）if the students would attend the report next Monday

Answer 2

by the end of last year

A，过去完成时

A
