Ozone, a special form of oxygen that screens out harmful ultraviolet rays, reaches high
concentrations twelve miles above Earth, where it has long appeared that it was immune from
human influence; we have now realized, though, that emissions of industrial chlorofluorocarbons
deplete the ozone layer.

(A) has long appeared that it was immune from
(B) has long appeared to have been immune from
(C) has long appeared as being immune to
(D) had long appeared immune to
(E) had long appeared that it was immune to  
答案选D，这里为啥可以用过去完成时？后面的动作we have now realized也只是现在完成时啊,过去完成时啥时候可以和现在完成时同时出现了？

这里考的是: 不能用现在完成时
it appeared的东西和we have now realized的东西是有冲突的
所以it appeared不能用现在完成时了

当然这道题也告诉我们过去分词可以和现在分词连用了：）

楼上真是好人哈，又帮我解答了一个问题。
看来很多所谓的语法规则都有例外，刚看到一题也是现在完成时和过去完成时一起出现的：

有道理！不过这个的确比较难一下子意识到。。。
