Question

【题目】—Could you tell me _________ for the meeting yesterday?

—Because the traffic was bad.

A.why did you come lateB.why you came late

C.why do you come lateD.why you come late

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】

句意：——你能告诉我你昨天为什么开会迟到吗？——因为交通太糟糕了。

本题考查宾语从句。作为动词tell的宾语从句，用陈述语序：疑问词+主语+谓语+宾语，因此排除AC两项，根据yesterday可知，此处用一般过去时，故选B。
