Question

【题目】I ______ sooner, but I didn’t know he was waiting for me.

A.would comeB.had comeC.would have comeD.was coming

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

考查虚拟语气。句意：我本来可以早一点来，但我真不知道他正在等我。由“but I didn’t know he was waiting for me.”可知，“我”事实上并没有早点来，因此可推知第一句应该是一个虚拟语气的句子。因为讲述的是过去的事情，所以句子应借助于“would+have+过去分词”的形式。本句可以理解为：I would have come sooner if I had known that he was waiting for me.故选C。
