题目内容
8．--What happened to you the other day？--I ________ to New York，but I missed my flight．（ ）
| A． | should fly | B． | had flown | C． | was flying | D． | flew |
分析 --前几天你怎么了？
--我打算要飞往纽约的，但是错过了航班．
解答 答案：C．
根据but I missed my flight一句可知，他没有赶上航班，和D项矛盾，可排除，所以前面理应描述自己想要去纽约的，was flying表示过去将来；短暂动词的进行时可表示本打算做而实际上没有做的事情；故选C．句中体现不出过去的过去这一时间状语，可B项；A项仅仅表示理论上的情况，也可排除．
点评 本句考查过去进行时表示将来，用法不大常见，但是其动词多为短暂性动词，要熟练掌握．
