--Yes. He _________ me to ask you how you ___________along with your new job these days.

A．has asked; have been getting	B．asked; were getting
C．often asks; are getting	D．asked; are getting

Answer 1

D

文句的含义是：“近来你见到彼德了吗?”第一个答语是肯定的，后面的动作是过去的事，因此使用asked。第二空是否受asked的制约，要由离第二个空白处最近的动词决定，离它近的是动词不定式to ask，据此根据句意，第二个空白处应该使用现在进行时。
