选什么
为什么

Answer 1

你好，同学，才看到你向我们团队发来的求助题，现在为你解答

答案：选C

即：Mike should have helped us but that he himself was short of money then.

翻译：麦克本来应该帮助我们，要不是他自己也缺钱。

解析：but that 要不是....的意思，should have done 是本来该做某事却没有做；be short of sth 意思是缺乏....；另外could have done 是本来能做的没有做，would have done 意思是将要完成某事，是将来完成时；lack当作动词讲时是及物动词，后面不用接of，只有当名词时，才和of连用，所以ABD都是错误的。

希望能帮到你，祝更上一层楼O(∩_∩)O
有不明白的请继续追问，可以详谈嘛(*^__^*)

Answer 2

B
Mike 本来要帮助我们的，要不是他那时缺钱。
lack.....=be short of....缺少.... but that......要不是.......
本句考查虚拟语气，本来要帮助，其实没帮助。缺少钱是客观事实,无需虚拟。
注意：考查虚拟语气往往是一半假设，而另一半是真实的，须分清真实与假设。

Answer 3

mike _should have helped __us but that he himself _was short of ___money then 选C
should have done 本应该做，但是没做
that 应该引导一句话 ，be short of 缺钱
Mike 本来可以帮助我们的，但是那时候他也正好缺钱。

Answer 4

c.前一空是与过去事实相反的虚拟语气，后一空是一般过去时。
迈克应该帮我们，但是他那时自己也缺钱。（意思就是没有帮）
