The festival __________ for almost a month.


  1. A.
    have been on
  2. B.
    has been on
  3. C.
    began
  4. D.
    begun
B
试题分析:on和begin都可以表示开始,区别是前者表示状态,用作表语。后者表示瞬间动作,用作谓语。句意:节日已经开始将近一个月了。结合语境可知本句描述的是现在已经完成的动作,故用现在完成时态,主语The festival表示抽象含义,不可数,故助动词用单数,选B。
考点:完成时态及动词用法
点评:英语中的时态主要是借助于时间状语与上下文语境来进行判断。解答此类题型,首先要注意句子中的时间状语,如果没有则要通过分析上下文,结合语境来判断句子的时态。完成时态中的动词有瞬间动词和持续性动词之分,瞬间动词的过去分词强调的是动作的完成,持续性动词强调的是动作的持续性。现在完成时态中表示一段时间的时间状语不能和瞬间动词连用,持续性动词不能和表示瞬间时间的时间状语连用,需注意区分。
