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?作者: kaneroy 时间: 2012-10-23 21:13
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。作者: sherilynchi 时间: 2012-10-26 20:43
明白了,谢谢。作者: fantasy1989 时间: 2012-11-2 06:32
up一下,d又是因为句意错的么?
