Question

I ______ to send him a gift to congratulate him on his marriage, but I _____ it.

A．hoped; hadn’t managed	B．hoped; didn’t manage
C．hope; don’t manage	D．had hoped; didn’t manage

Answer 1

D

试题分析：考查时态：句意：我本打算送给他一个礼物来庆祝他的结婚，但是我没有做到。从but I _____ it.可知是本希望做却没做，用had hoped表示“原本想做……”，但manage应发生在后，所以用过去时故只用过去式，选D。
