动词时态典型易错题分析-03

【典型考题】“Your phone number again? I _____ quite catch it.” “It’s 4331577”

A. didn’t                                                  B. couldn’t

C. don’t                                                   D. can’t

【易错陷阱】此题容易误选C,认为此处要用一般现在时态,表示现在“没听清对方的话”。

【思路分析】其实,此题答案应选A,根据上文的语境“请把你的电话号码再说一遍好吗?”可知“没听清对方的电话号码”应是在说此话以前,故应用一般过去时态。请看以下类似试题:

(1) “Mr Smith isn’t coming tonight.” “ But he _____.”

A. promises                                              B. promised

C. will promise                                         D. had promised

答案选B,“他答应(要来)”应发生在过去。

(2) “Hey, look where you are going!” “Oh, I’m terribly sorry. _____.”

A. I’m not noticing                                   B. I wasn’t noticing

C. I haven’t noticed                                   D. I don’t notice

答案选B,“我没注意”是对方提醒之前的事,现经对方一提醒,当然注意到了。

(3) “Oh it’s you ! I ________ you.” “I’ve had my hair cut.”

A. didn’t realize                                        B. haven’t realized

C. didn’t recognize                                    D. don’t recognized 

答案选C。“没认出是你”是说此话之前的事,说此话时显然已经认出了对方。

(4) “What’s her new telephone number?” “Oh, I _____.”

A. forget                                                  B. forgot

C. had forgotten                                        D. am forgetting

此题应选A,从语境上看,“忘记”的时间应是现在,即指现在不记得了。

(5) “Since you’ve agreed to go, why aren’t you getting ready?” “But I ______ that you would have me start at once.”

A. don’t realize                                         B. didn’t realize

C. hadn’t realized                                      D. haven’t realized

答案选B。“没意识到”是对方提醒之前的事。

(6) “It’s twelve o’clock, I think I must be off now.” “Oh, really? I ______ it at all.”

A. don’t realize                                         B. haven’t realized

C. didn’t realize                                        D. hadn’t realized

答案选C。“没意识到”是在听到的话之前的事。
