Question

【题目】— I wonder if the books by Yu Guangzhong .

—Yes. They a few days ago.

A.sell well; sold outB.are sold well; sold out

C.sell well; were sold outD.are sold well; were sold out

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

句意：——我想知道被余光中所写的书是否卖得很好。——是的，他们几年前被卖光了。

本题考查时态语态。某些表示主语内在品质或性能的及物动词（lock, shut, open, move, write, sell, wash, clean, catch, draw,cut）等，可用主动形式表示被动含义，且句中会出现一些表示性质或者动作特征的词，如badly, well,easily。根据sell“卖”可知，用主动形式，排除B和D；且第二空前的they代指the books，sell out卖光，用被动语态，故选C。
