Question

The 16^th Asian Games ____ in Guangzhou from Nov. 12 to Nov. 27, 2010.

A．was held

B．was holding

C．will be held

D．will be holding

Answer 1

C

试题分析：Asian Games做主语时，谓语动词应该用复数，Asian Games与hold之间是被动关系，故选C。
点评：本题难度适中。动词的时态和语态放在一起考查增加了试题的难度，需要考生有分析理解复杂的句子结构的能力，必须会根据语境或已给动词的形式来判断动词的时态。
即学即练：Had you joined the chat room ten minutes ago, you would have known what we _______about then.
A. had talked          B. have talked       C. talk                 D. were talking
解析：D。此题以虚拟语气的句子为出题背景，增加了试题难度。主句为虚拟语气，what引导的宾语从句是真实的。句意：如果你十分钟前加入聊天室，你就会知道（那时）我们在谈什么。根据语境应用过去进行时。
