A fire broke out in the neighborhood last night. By the time the firemen arrived, it    . 
A.had been put outB.would put out
C.has been put outD.was putting out
A

试题分析:考查时态和语态。本题中的By the time the firemen arrived是指到消防员到达的时候,这是一个过去的时间;所以后面使用了过去完成时的被动语态。句意:昨天晚上在一个社区爆发了一次火灾,搭配消防员到了的时候,大火已经被扑灭了。故A正确。
点评:连词by到…时为止;该词经常与完成时连用,如果后面是现在的时间,句中就使用现在完成时;如果后面是过去的时间,就使用过去完成时;如果后面是将来的时间,就使用将来完成时。语态是动词的一种形式,表示主语和谓语动词之间的逻辑关系,被动语态表示主语是谓语动词所表示的动作的承受者。
