Until recently, the Inuit people led a nomadic existence, sheltering in igloos, the ice-block domes that are peculiar to north-central Canada, and in structures made of stones, bones, driftwood, and skins.

A.    Until recently, the Inuit people led a nomadic existence, sheltering
B.    During recent times, the Inuit people lead a nomadic existence, sheltering
C.    In the times that are recent, the Inuit people led a nomadic existence, sheltered
D.    Up until recently, the Inuit people, leading a nomadic existence, have sheltered
E.    Until recent times, leading a nomadic existence, the Inuit people were sheltered
答案：A。 我想请问下，until recently后应当用什么时态呢？现在完成时还是一般过去时？还是都可以。比如选项D,如果去掉前面的UP, 这句话是不是就没什么问题呢？

LZ，D选项改变句子重心了，应该尊重原文的意思。
至于Until recently，我在阅读新老观点的时候总是联系到recently，这样

找到新老观点具体分布，倒是背不下来时态问题，应该是一般过去时态。
LZ等等，我在找prep中的现在完成时态的常用标志，背不全，只能照斑竹的

给你转述一下了。

现在完成时态的时间状语：for, since, so far, ever, never, just, yet, till/until，up to now, in past years......
可能有一些更加明显的我没有收录到自己的笔记中，但是这个until...阅读中的确是总是跟随一般过去式（找新老观点文章很多这样的）。
LZ还是从句子重心理解吧，逻辑层面找出路。

明白了，谢谢。

up一下,d又是因为句意错的么?
