--- How come your father can read books in German?
--- Well, he        on a project with some German engineers for 3 years when he was young.

A.worked B.was working
C.had worked D.would work

A

解析试题分析:考查时态。句意:——你父亲怎么能用德语看书?——哦,他在年轻时和一些德国工程师共事过3年。从时间状语when he was young可知主从句动作同时发生,排除答案C和D,根据语境可知,他现在不再和德国工程师共事,所以只是强调过去的一个事实,故使用一般过去时。此题容易根据时间状语for 3 years 误选答案C。
考点:考查时态。
