Question

【题目】She fell asleep while she ________ newspapers.

A. was about to read B. was reading C. had read D. was to read

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】考查时态。句意：她看着看着报纸就睡着了。while引导时间状语从句，表示“在……的时候”、“在……期间” 、“一边……一边……”；while从句中必须是表示动作或状态的延续性动词，它强调主句的动作与从句的动作同时发生或主句的动作发生在从句的动作过程中；根据主句用一般过去时，故while引导的时间状语从句用过去进行时，故选B。
