【题目】—Linda is not coming for the party tonight?

—But she ______ .

A. promises B. promised C. will promise D. had promised

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】

句意：---琳达今晚不来参加晚会了吗？----但她答应了。考查动词时态。A. promises一般现在时，第三人称单数；B. promised一般过去时；C. will promise一般将来时；D. had promised过去完成时。根据上文是现在进行时，结合语境可知原先答应，可知用一般过去时。故选B。
