1. 答案：C
解析：主句如果是一般将来时，状语从句一般用一般现在时。
2. 答案：B
解析：句中有表示过去具体时间(last year)的状语，谓语动词一般用过去时。
3. 答案：B
解析：根据题中的时间状语for ten years，即可选出正确的答案。重点是对介词for + 时间长度这一时间状语的理解。
4. 答案：D
解析：过去完成时表示“过去的过去”。使用过去完成时时，句中常有明显的参照动作或有表示到过去某时为止的时间状语。
5. 答案：D
解析：根据题中的时间状语by next Friday ，即可选出正确的答案D。含介词by + 具体将来时间的句子，主句应该使用将来完成时态。
6. 答案：D
解析：根据题中的时间状语so far this month ，谓语动词一般用现在完成时或现在完成进行时。
7. 答案：D
解析：现在进行时可以表示某种感情色彩。
8. 答案：C
解析：“use to + 动词原形”从表示“过去常常”而现在已不复存在的动作或状态。“be used to + 名词或动名词”表示“习惯于##”。
9. 答案：C
解析：参见上题。
10. 答案：C
解析：如果从句动作和主句动作几乎同时发生，并且从句动作发生在主句动作延续其间，主句谓语动词用进行式。
11. 答案：A
解析：根据because 从句中的时间状语for several years，可推断动词用完成式。
12. 答案：C
解析：根据句中时间状语by the time it ends ，可推知谓语动词用将来完成时。
13. 答案：D
解析：题中无任何时间状语，它说明一般情况，因此用一般现在时。
14. 答案：B
解析：表示客观规律、永恒真理时，用一般现在时。
15. 答案：A
解析：过去进行时表示过去某个时间正在发生的动作。强调动作进行的状态。
16. 答案：D
解析：unlikely 是“是不可能的”。后面的从句用将来时态表示将来不可能实现的事情。
17. 答案：C
解析：本题考查时态和语态的用法。从时间状语now 可看出谓语动词是正在进行的动作，同时和主语有被动的关系，所以用are being developed 表示“正在被开发”。
18. 答案：C
解析：本句是主从复合句。从题意来看，主句动作发生在从句之前，为“过去的过去”，应该用过去完成式。
19. 答案：A
解析：句中by the end of this month 说明是将来某一时刻已经完成的动作，因此用将来完成时。
20. 答案：D
解析：本题前一句讲油管一直在漏油，第二句说将采取措施停止漏油。第一句的动作一直进行到现在还在继续，应该用现在完成进行时。A 项的过去完成时，B 项的现在进行时，与第二句中的将来时不适合。C 项与同一句中的for some time 有冲突。
21. 答案：C
解析：根据主语the last half of the nineteenth century 可判断出时间为过去时，故C 正确。
22. 答案：A
解析：does=tells him the truth 。时间状语从句按语法规定用一般时的谓语动词，而非将来时，所以选A。
23. 答案：B
解析：then 指将来时间eight o’clock tonight 。谓语动词用将来完成时表示在将来此时之前已经完成的动作。
24. 答案：A
解析：由前句可以推断出现在她仍在阅读，所以用现在完成进行时，表示从过去某个时刻开始一直延续到目前并且仍在继续的动作。
25. 答案：C
解析：此题考点为not…until… 句型中的时态。一般规则：如果主句是一般过去时态则从句多为过去完成时态。本句为not…until 句型的强调式，即将not until… 置于句首采用倒装式。
26. 答案：B
解析：she is = she is upset 。in case 引起的条件状语从句不用will 或would ，而用一般时态，如：In case he comes, let me know. /I left the door open in case the cat wanted to get in.
27. 答案：C
解析：时间状语before the end of next month 表示将来。办公楼的施工不能自动完成，要用被动语态，因此排除A 和D。B 表示对过去事情的推测，也不符合句子意思。选项C 表示将来某时必须完成，正合题意。
