Question

【題目】A young man was found __ at the corner of the street. The police tried to find out how he______.

A.dying; diesB.was dying; deadC.dead; diedD.died; died

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：一個(gè)年輕人被發(fā)現(xiàn)死在街角。警方試圖查明他的死因。

考查形容詞和動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)辨析。die死亡，dying是現(xiàn)在分詞形式，died是過(guò)去式；dead死去的，形容詞。前空用dead表狀態(tài)；后句how引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句，從句缺謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，根據(jù)主句時(shí)態(tài)可知用過(guò)去式，故選C。
