Question

【題目】The company started as a small business many years ago and ______ a lot since then.

A.had grownB.is growingC.has grownD.was growing

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：幾年前這個(gè)公司開始的時(shí)候只是個(gè)小生意，從那以后就成長了很多。

考查時(shí)態(tài)。had grown已經(jīng)成長，過去完成時(shí)；is growing正在成長，一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)；has grown已經(jīng)成長，現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)；was growing正在成長，過去進(jìn)行時(shí)。根據(jù)since then可知，此句表示從那時(shí)開始，一直延續(xù)至今，用現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)。故選C。
