Question

—We didn’t find Smith attending the lecture.
—No one _______ him about _______ a lecture the following day.

A．told, there to be

B．had told, there to be

C．told, there was

D．had told, there being

Answer 1

D

考查时态。根据句意可知没有人告诉他是在我们没有发现Smith之前发生，故用过去完成时；about为介词，故there be句型为there being，选D。
