【详解】句意：你的包还在你昨天放的地方。
考查时态。 lie-lied-lied 说谎；lie-lay-lain 平躺，位于；lay-laid-laid 放置，下蛋；根据句意理解可知，第一空
表达的是“仍然在躺那里” ，是一种状态，所以应该用一般现在时，而第二空有具体的过去时间 yesterday，
所以动词应该用过去式，表达的是“放置” 的意思，过去式是 laid，故选 C。
【点睛】
英语中 lie 相关的三个词要注意词义以及过去式和过去分词的区别。可以编成顺口溜来记忆：规则的“说谎”， 不规则的“ 躺” ，躺完就“ 下蛋” 。“ 规则” 就是变化规则的,也就是和一般的动词变化一样，lie-lied-lied (说谎)； “不规则的”就是在同一个词的基础上， 变化不规则的， lie-lay-lain (卧， 躺， 平放， 位于)；“躺完就下蛋”:“躺”
的完成式意思是“下蛋”lay-laid-laid (下蛋，放置)；这样就比较容易记住，而且不会混淆。
