Question

Tom’s father had not spoken to him since his marriage, because he considered Tom ______ a mistake in marrying so young a girl.

A. had made       B. made        C. would make        D. was making

Answer 1

A

解析:

此句改编自 David Copperfield.句意：自Tom结婚以来，他的父亲就没再和他说过话，因为父亲认为Tom不该娶太年轻的姑娘。显然，“Tom犯错”发生于“父亲认为”这一过去动作前，故应选择过去完成时。
