We ______ that you would fix the TV set this week. — I'm sorry. I ______ , but I've been too busy.
A. had expected; had intended to
B. are expecting; had intended to
C. expect; intend to
D. expected; intend to
这题答案选择A,不明白这类时态的确定就是靠翻译吗? 我觉得D也可以,但是我觉得第一个空用过去式expected,也是表示原本希望,不知道老师有没有其他看法?
had planned/intended/meant/wanted/hoped to do something
= planned/intended/meant/wanted/hoped to have done something
表示未能实现的过去的计划、打算、意图、希望等。
由第二个空后面的but I have been too busy, 可知这里表示的是未能实现的过去的打算,故可以排除C、D。并由此可知别人的expect是过去的,而不是现在的,进而排除现在进行时B。所以A是唯一可选项。A项的had expected过去完成时参照的是你未能如期修理电视的那个过去时间。
