The manager was concerned to hear that two of his trusted workers ______. (2012山东卷)   A. will leave B. are leaving C. have left D. were leaving.   分析：根据句意，空格处可用过去将来时或过去完成时，分别表示员工将要离开或已经离开让经理很担心，但句中既没有过去将来时也没有过去完成时，所以许多考生不知道如何选择。其实，英语中有时候可用进行时态表示将来意义——用现在进行时表示“一般将来”，用过去进行时表示“过去将来”，故此题答案为D。句意为：经理听说他很信任的两名员工要离开感到很担心   2. Food supplies in the flood-stricken area ______. We must act immediately before there’s none left. (2012重庆卷)   A. have run out B. are running out C. have been run out D. are being run out   分析：根据We must act immediately before there’s none left(我们必须在食物耗尽前立刻行动)可知，受到洪水侵袭的地区的食品“快要”耗尽了，所以空格处应填将来时态，但是四个选项中并没有将来时态。其实，此题也是要用进行时态表示将来意义，故答案只能在B和D之间作选择，同时考虑到run out是不及物动词，不能用于被动语态，故只能选B。     二、误解句中的时态标志而出错   1. — Look! Somebody ______ the sofa.   — Well, it wasn’t me. I didn’t do it. (2012江西卷)   A. is cleaning B. was cleaning C. has cleaned D. had cleaned   分析：有的考生一看到句中的look，就以为它是现在进行时的典型标志，从而误选了A。其实，如果句子只有前半部分，答案完全可以选A，即“Look! Somebody is cleaning the sofa.”这个句子是完全正确的。但如果结合对话的后面一句，则只能选C，对话的意思是：“看，有人已经擦干净了沙发。”“哟，不是我，我没有做。”   2. The manager _______ the workers how to improve the program since 9 am. (2012*卷II)   A. has told B. is telling C. has been telling D. will have told   分析：有的考生一看到句中的since 9 am 就以为它是现在完成时的典型标志，从而误选了A。没错，since 9 am 这类时间状语通常与现在完成时连用，但是本句比较特殊，谓语动词tell是一个非延续动词，若用现在完成时has told，它只表示“已经告诉了”，而不能表示“从上午9点开始一直在告诉”，故不能选A。要表示“从上午9点开始一直在告诉”，得用现在完成进行时，即答案为C。   警惕做英语时态题的误区：   一、滥用时态呼应   英语时态在许多情况都是前后呼应的，即上文所用的某种时态与下文所用的某种时态存在一定的关联性。正确地运用时态呼应本来也是一种做时态题的技巧，但是，如果不加理解地滥用它，则会适得其反。如：   1. I _________ in London for many years, but I’ve never regretted my final decision to move back to China. (重庆卷)   A. lived B. was living   C. have lived D. had lived   【解析】许多同学一看到后面的have never regretted为现在完成时，同时选项C也是现在完成时，结果滥用时态呼应，将答案误选C。其实，此题的*答案是A。句中but后的句子告诉我们，说话者现在已搬回了上海，所以他住在伦敦应属于过去的事情，故应用一般过去时。   2. He was hoping to go abroad but his parents _________ that they won’t support him unless he can borrow money from the bank. (湖北卷)   A. were deciding B. have decided C. decided D. will decide   【解析】有的同学一看到句中的was hoping，便想当然地认为答案是A或C。其实，此题的*答案是B，用现在完成时表示目前决定“已经”作出。其实，假若此处填过去时态，它与其后宾语从句中的won’t, can也自相矛盾，故应排除。   二、忽略简单时态的特殊用法   有的考题从表面上看是考查某种很简单的时态，但命题人有可能是考查这种简单时态的某种特殊用法，同学们做题时一定要引起高度注意。如：   Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten your seat belts. The plane _________. (福建卷)   A. takes off B. is taking off   C. has taken off D. took off   【解析】此题答案选B，用现在进行时表示将来意义。The plane is taking off. 的意思是“飞机马上就要起飞了”。   应对时态考题的技巧：   一、利用句子语境解题   根据语境命题是近几年来高考英语单项填空题的一个十分重要的趋势，可以毫不夸张地说，每年的单项填空至少有百分之九十五的考题或多或少与语境有一定的关系。所以，同学们在做题时，除根据各个时态的不同用法和特点来分析外，还要充分根据句子本身所提供的语境来分析，不仅要使所填时态语法正确，而且要使句子意思通顺，合情合理。如：   1. I have to go to work by taxi because my car _________ at the garage.   A. will be repaired B. is repaired C. is being repaired D. has been repaired   【解析】答案选C。上文说“不得不乘的士去上班”，这就说明车子正在修理，故用进行时态;又由于“车”与“修理”为被动关系，故用现在进行时的被动语态。   2. Since I won the big prize, my telephone hasn’t stopped ringing. People _________ to ask how I am going to spend the money. (湖南卷)   A. phone B. will phone C. were phoning D. are phoning   【解析】答案选D。句子上文说“自从我获大奖后，我的电话响过不停”，这就说明人们“给我打电话”这事正在进行，故用现在进行时。   3. Scientists think that the continents _________ always where they _________ today.   A. aren’t; are B. aren’t; were C. weren’t; are D. weren’t; were   【解析】答案选C。句意是：科学家们认为各大陆并非一直在它们现在所处的位置。既然过去的位置与现在的位置不同，所以谈论过去情况用一般过去时。   二、利用关键词解题   有的时态考题中往往会隐含有一个或几个对解题起着重要作用的词语，这就是我们所说的“关键词”。同学们在解题时，若能充分挖掘这些关键词，并进行合理地分析和推理，对于得出试题的正确答案将会有很直接的帮助作用。如：   1. It is said that the early European playing-cards _________ for entertainment and education.   A. were being designed B. have designed   C. have been designed D. were designed   【解析】答案选D。解答此题的关键是要抓住early这一形容词。early European playing-cards的意思是“早期欧洲人玩的扑克牌”，既然是“早期”，肯定就是过去的事了，所以用一般过去时。   2. Listen to the two girls by the window. What language _________?   A. did they speak B. were they speaking   C. are they speaking D. have they been speaking   【解析】答案选C。解答此题的关键词是Listen to…(听……)，由此可知，空格处要用现在进行时态。
