Question

【题目】His father for five years.

A. was dead B. has died C. died D. has been dead

Answer 1

【答案】D

【解析】

句意：他的父亲已经去世五年了。考查现在完成时。A. was dead一般过去时；B. has died现在完成时；C. died一般过去时；D. has been dead现在完成时。for+时间段：表示做某事做了这段时间，动词需用延续性动词，一般用现在完成时；be dead：死了，表示一种状态，是延续性动词，die死亡，非延续性动词；根据句中for five years结合句意可知选D。
