Question

【題目】—You could have asked Mrs Zhang for advice, for she is an expert at it.
—Yes, a whole day ________.
A.will be wasted
B.would be wasted
C.had been wasted
D.was wasted

Answer 1

【答案】D
【解析】根據(jù)虛擬語氣could have asked可見，是浪費了一整天的時間，指過去的事情，“本可以問，事實卻沒問”，could have asked結(jié)構(gòu)帶輕微的責(zé)備。根據(jù)句意可知用一般過去時態(tài)的被動語態(tài)，表客觀事實，故選D。
