1. “Life is like walking in the snow,” Granny used to say, “because every step _____(show).”
1. shows 句意：奶奶过去常常说：“生活就像踏雪而行，因为每一步都会留下足迹。”奶说的话是生活哲理，所以用一般现在时。
2. I sat down on the edge of a curb (路缘) and________(listen)．
2. listened 考查时态。句意：我坐在路边，听了起来。and连接了两个并列的谓语动词，和前面的sat down并列。
3. My parents have promised to come to see me before I ______(leave) for Africa.
3. leave 句意：我父母已经答应在我离开去非洲之前来看我。由主句的句意判断，从句表示的动作是将要发生的，而时间状语从句中用一般现在时表示将来意义。
4. —Have you been to the United States
—Yes, only once. I________(stay) there only for seven days.
4. stayed 考查动词的时态。据句子 Have you been to the United States Yes, only once.我去过美国，但已经回来，所以I ________there only for seven days是过去的事，所以应用一般过去时态。
5. —John, what are you______(hold) in your hand
—Look! It’s a birthday gift for my grandma.
5. holding 句意：——约翰，你手里拿的是什么？——看，这是给我奶奶的生日礼物。两人对话以现在时间为参考点，说话时hold这个动作正在发生，故用现在进行时。
6. I________(think) about what you’ve said and I’ve decided to take your advice.
6. have been thinking 考查时态。句意：我一直都在考虑你所说的话而且我已经决定了采纳你的建议了。用现在完成进行时表示动作由过去的某一刻开始持续，直到说话的时候才刚好结束。

—We ______(be) busy with our work for months, so we went to the beach to relax ourselves.
7. had been 句意：——彼得，你们去哪里过的暑假？——我们几个月来一直忙于工作，所以我们去了海滨放松了一下。根据句意“一直忙于工作”是在“去海滨度假”之前已经结束了的状态，故用过去完成时。
8. —I hear you ____(work) in a pub. What’s it like
—Well, it’s very hard work and I’m always tired, but I don’t mind.
8. are working 句意：——我听说你在酒吧里上班，这份工作怎么样？——咳，这是份辛苦活，老感到累，不过我不介意。对话所给的语境表明说话人现在还在酒吧里上班，用现在进行时描述现阶段长期重复的一个动作。
9. —I wonder if you could go with me to the supermarket.
—Don’t disturb me. I ________(write)my daily report this morning and haven’t finished yet.
9. have been writing 考查时态。句意：——我想知道你能否和我一起去超市。——不要打扰我，我今天早晨一直在写每日报告，现在还没有完成。根据句意，此处表示的从过去起一直持续的动作，用现在完成进行时。
10. －Look! Somebody _____(clean) the sofa.
－Well, it wasn’t me. I didn’t do it.
10. has cleaned句意：——看！有人已经打扫了沙发。——嗯，不是我，我没有做。表示过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响用现在完成时。
11. He jumped out of the car，________(seize) a boy and pushed him up against the parked car.
11. seized 考查一般过去时。他从汽车里面跳了出来，抓住一个男孩。和jumped，pushed构成并列谓语，故要用一般过去时。
12. Up to now, the program _____(save) thousands of children who would otherwise have died.
解析：D 句意：到目前为止，这项计划已经拯救了数千名儿童，如果没有这项计划他们可能会失去生命。由时间状语“up to now”判断句子用现在完成时，表示过去的行为动作对现在造成的影响。定语从句里面因otherwise表示含蓄虚拟条件而使用了与过去事实相反的虚拟语气。
13. The book has been translated into thirty languages since it ____(come) on the market in 1973.
13. came 句意：自从1973年上市以来，这本书已经被翻译成30种语言。since表示“自从”，它引导的时间状语从句常用一般过去时，且该从句中也有明确的过去时间状语“in 1973”。
14. The manager ______ (tell) the workers how to improve the program since 9 am.
14. has been telling 句意：经理从早上9点开始就一直在不停地告诉工人们如何改进这个项目。现在完成进行时可以表示过去某一动作从过去开始一直延续到现在。
15. The president hopes that the people will be better off when he quits than when he ____(start) .
15. started 句意：这位总统希望人们在他离任时比他刚上任时更富有。事实上“when he quits”中的“quits”是用了一般现在时来代替一般将来时。根据句意，总统开始上任是过去发生的动作，所以用一般过去时。
16. —Did you catch what I said
—Sorry. I _____ (answer) a text message just now.
16. was answering句意：——你听懂我所说的了吗？——对不起。我刚刚在回短信。根据句意及时间状语“just now”可知，回短信的动作正好是发生在问话人说话的那一时间点，即表示过去某一时间点正在发生的动作，所以用过去进行时。
17. When Alice came to, she did not know how long she ______(lie) there.
17. had been lying句意：当爱丽丝苏醒过来时，她不知道她在那儿躺了多久了。过去完成进行时主要表示持续到过去某时之前的动作。came to“苏醒过来”是过去时，苏醒前的情况是过去的过去，强调过去的过去一直发生的事。
18. By the time you have finished this book, your meal ______(get) cold.
