    Not until the game had begun __ at the sports ground

    A.should he have arrived

    B.would he have arrived

    C.did he arrive

    D.had he arrived


    正确答案：C

    【考情点拨】考查not until引导的时间状语从句。 【应试指导】旬意：直到比赛开始他才到达运动场。not until引导时间状语从句时主句要部分倒装。从句中的时态为过去完成时，故主句中的时态应为一般过去时，故选C。

  • 第2题：

    The author enjoys watching golf games on TV because _____.

    ［A］ access to drinks makes the game more joyful

    ［B］ a more enjoyable view of the game is provided

    ［C］ he is thus unaffected by the result of the game

    ［D］ that is more likely real appreciation of the game


    正确答案：C
    本题考查了事实细节。文章第一段的后半部分提到，作者在观看电视中的高尔夫球赛时，可以体验到一种比赛本身缺少的冷静，他在沙发上伸展四肢，然后对结果保持漠不关心的态度。由此可看出，［C］项是看电视上的比赛和亲身经历的区别所在，也就是作者可以享受观看比赛的原因。［A］、［B］项的joyful和enjoyable是题干中enjoys watching的同义表达，并没有给出造成这种结果的原因。［D］项是文中没有提到的观点。

    答案：C
    解析：
    考查倒装句。状语放于句首时，句子要倒装。由于he和injure之间是被动关系，故排除A、B两项；又因主语he是第三人称单数形式，故选C项。
