In 1998, when he was only 19, Bill _____ to 5 years in prison for his acts of violence. 

A.sentencedB.had sentencedC.was sentencedD.had been sentenced

C

解析试题分析:句意;在1998年,当Bill 19岁时,他被判5年监禁因为他的暴力行为。sentence sb to判某人刑,这里Bill与sentence之间是被动关系,又有明确的过去的时间所以用过去式,故选C。
考点:考查动词时态及语态的用法。
点评:本题难度适中。动词是高考考查的热点,需要考生记牢它们的用法及句法,还需有分析理解句子结构的能力。动词时态与语态也是高中阶段的重难点之一,需要考生能够理解句意进而对动词的时态做出正确的判断。
即学即练:Ann ______ here any more.She left last month.
A.won't work  B.doesn't work  C.hasn't worked D.isn't working
解析:B。句意:句意:Ann现在不在这儿工作了。她上个月离开的。根据句意可知,她现在不在这儿工作了,故用一般现在时。
