过去进行时用法一得有这样一道题:I don’t think Jim saw me; he __________ into space. A. just stared B. was just staringC. has just stared D. had just stared 【分析】此题应选B。主要考查动词过去进行时的基本用法(即动作在过去某一时刻正在进行)。此题的上文设置比较巧妙:前面的主句用了I don’t think(指现在的看法),而其后的宾语从句用的是saw(指过去的动作),也就是说此题的语境是:现在谈论过去的情况,全句意为:我认为吉姆当时没看见我,(因为)他当时正在朝天空看。1.
