题目内容

8．The train we ________ for so long was crowded，so we decided to catch a later one．（　　）
A．have been waitingB．were waiting
C．had been waitingD．have waited

分析 我们等了很久的那列火车太拥挤了，因此我们决定乘坐稍晚的那一列．

解答 答案选C
句中 for so long是用于现在完成时态的时间状语，但根据语境可以推断出wait这一动作应该发生在decided之前，意为在这之前一直在等这辆火车，即这一动作发生在过去的过去，要用过去完成进行时，故选C．

点评 本题考查了过去完成时，要掌握它与现在完成时的区别．
过去完成时（had+动词的过去分词）的动作或状态发生在过去某一时间之前，即发生在过去的过去；而现在完成时（has/have+动词的过去分词）则是表示发生在过去的某一动作或状态，延续到了现在，还有可能持续到将来，强调对现在产生的影响及存在的结果．

12．A Book Review-The Snake-Stone by Berlie Doherty
The setting：Urban England （the cities），but also rural England （the countryside） including remote English villages．
The theme：The main theme is a teenage search of self-discovery，in this case the search for a mother from whom the hero was separated at an early age．Its other concerns are love，getting on with others，being persistent and courageous and trying to deal with doubts，troubles and worries．As the book moves to a close，James'swimming coach says to him："You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more．You are diving like a young man who knows where he is going．"
The characters：James is the hero of the story．He is a championship diver，and has a comfortable life with his foster parents （养父母）．Yet he also has the qualities to take him on a long journey to find his birth mother．The other characters in The Snake-Stone，James'parents，his diving instructor，best friend，the villagers，people he meets on his journey，are pictured realistically．
The turning point：The turning point in the story comes while James'foster parents are away in London，and he wonders about the identity of his birth mother．The only clue he has is a fossil，"the snake stone"which she left behind along with a note on which she had written："Take good care of Sammie．It was written on a torn envelope with parts of an address still there．
The journey：Instead of going to London，James decides to find his birth mother．With help from his geography teacher，James sets out for the remote country village where his mother might be found．James has painful，challenging，but also humorous and happy travels．The mother he finally meets，Anne，has a minor yet powerful voice in the novel．He comes to understand why she left him at a stranger's door fifteen years before．Although the meeting is not long，it leaves him with a feeling of completeness．As a journey of self-discovery The Snake-Stone also provides its readers with a happy ending．Its hero says，on returning to his foster parents，"I was home．"
