34、确答案。 避错指南 A 项是动词的一般将来时,C 项是动词的原形,与主句谓语 said 均不能在时态上保持一致,故排除。D 项虽然是动词的一般过去时,但是与主句谓语时间关系方面不符合一般逻辑。5.Her hair and coat were wet because it _.(分数:1.00)A.would be rainingB.had been raining C.would have been rainingD.had rained解析:解析 本题考查原因状语从句的时态。主句的时态是一般过去时,从句用过去完成进行时,表示的是过去某段时间内持续发生的动作和状态,选项 B 符合语法和句子的意
