Question

【题目】 When the students arrived there out of ______, the train _______ for about five minutes.

A. breath; has left B. breathe; has been

C. breath; had left D. breath; had been away

Answer 1

【答案】D

【解析】

试题分析：句意：当学生们气喘吁吁地到达那儿，火车已经开走5分钟了。out of breath气喘吁吁,上气不接下气；过去的过去，应该用过去完成时态。leave为短暂性动词，不能与表示一段的时间状语连用，必须转化成be away的形式。故答案为D。
