請問一下喔~og 10版的 261題 中的答案是 c
但 c中是用
has~
那個句子不是發生在過去嗎

braveMBA

句子的意思是想说，Bharati Mukherjee has lived in England and Canada，你可以通过原句来体会句子的意思。

MM请贴出题目，这样比较容易看。

61. Being a United States citizen since 1988 and born in Calcutta in 1940. author Bharati Mukherjee has lived in England and Canada, and first came to the United States in 1961 to study at the Iowa Writers' Workshop.
(A)    Being a United States citizen since 1988 and born in Calcutta in 1940, author Bharati Mukherjee has
(B)    Having been a United States citizen since 1988, she was born in Calcutta in 1940; author Bharati Mukherjee
(C)    Born in Calcutta in 1940, author Bharati Mukherjee became a United States citizen in 1988; she has
(D)    Being born in Calcutta in 1940 and having been a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee
(E)    Having been born in Calcutta in 1940 and being a United States citizen since 1988, author Bharati Mukherjee
C is best. The first clause presents its information clearly and in logical sequence. The use of a semicolon to set apart the remaining information further assists the clarity of the sentence. In A, the phrase Being... and born violates parallelism and oddly presents its information in reverse chronological order. Choice B illogically suggests that upon her birth in 1940, Mukherjee had already been a United States citizen since 1988. In D and E, the use of progressive forms (Being born, having been. Having been born, and being) implies continuous action, a notion that is not appropriate to the facts being presented. Also, these forms do not establish a logical time sequence, suggesting, for example, that Mukherjee had been a United States citizen before she lived in England and Canada and first came to the United States.

257. The direction in which the Earth and the other solid planets --Mercury, Venus, and Mars -- spins were determined from collisions with giant celestial bodies in the early history of the Solar System.
(A)    spins were determined from
(B)    spins were determined because of
(C)    spins was determined through
(D)    spin was determined by
(E)    spin was determined as a result of
D, the best choice, is clear and concise, and uses correct subject-verb agreement. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they use the singular verb spins for the plural subject Earth and the other solid planets--Mercury, Venus, and Mars. Choices A and B furthermore incorrectly use the plural were, which does not agree with the singular subject The direction. To express cause, determined by is idiomatic; the prepositions from and through in A and C are not idiomatic. The phrase determined because of in B is redundant. In E, the phrase determined as a result of is redundant, awkward, and unidiomatic.
還有這一題~
我可以接受spin 的解釋但後面的was是怎回事

可以用has阿，表示的是从过去一个时间一直到现在，我觉得用had的话，可能就表示她已经搬走了或者翘掉了。

was 对应句首的 the direction

61、MM应该根据题目所设定的语言场景去判断时态，除了客观规律和真理等，其它尽量按照题目的假定去考虑，和做逻辑题一样。而且这里题目没有交待其他的信息，从A选项（也就是原句）考虑，作者想表达的就是Bharati Mukherjee [has lived] in England and Canada, and first came to the United States in 1961 to study at the Iowa Writers' Workshop这样一个事实。另外，从排除的角度看，也只有C合适。
