My wife ______the night shift when my plane ______. That’s why no one is to meet me at the airport today.
A.will be working; arrives B.was working; arrived
C.will have worked; has arrived D.is working; is arriving
A
【解析】
试题分析:句意:当我的飞机到时,我的妻子将在值夜班,那就是为什么今天没人接我的原因。根据That’s why no one is to meet me at the airport today.可知,今天接机这事还未发生,when引导的时间状语从句不能用将来时,用一般现在时来代替将来时;当飞机到达时,妻子正在值班,是将来进行时。故选A。
考点:考查动词时态的用法。
点评:本题难度适中。动词时态的考查与一定的语境结合一起增加了试题的难度,有的考生时态的用法背的很熟,但在不同的语境下,就做不对了,提醒考生一定要会分析理解语境。
即学即练:Tell John not to leave the house unless he ______that the lights______.
A.will make sure,turn off
B.makes sure,are turned off
C.will make sure,will turn off
D.makes sure,will be turned off
解析:B。此处unless引导的条件状语从句用一般现在时代替一般将来时,根据句意the lights应已经被关掉。所以选B。

National Geographic Society
17 TH and M Streets N.W., Washington D.C.20036 U.S.A.
The year is 1991.But just for a moment you will feel the centuries roll back.
Close your eyes and you can almost see Charlemagne kneeling to receive his crown as Holy Roman Emperor.
Or an ageing Michelangelo standing in the middle of rubble (碎石), staring at the still unbuilt, sky-size dome (圆顶大厦)above.
You are in St. Peter’s Basilica, heart of one of the most attractive nations in the world …
Dear friend,
Every now and then, you visit a place that leaves a lasting impression – and memories that remain long after you’ve returned home. The Vatican is one of those unforgettable places.
As a devoted traveler, I have always believed that there is no replacement for being there. That is, before I saw National Geographic’s new volume (书卷)with my own eyes.
Inside the Vatican
In some ways it’s better than being there. Two experienced Geographic staff members – award-winning photographer James Stansfield and writer Bart Mcdowell – show you a side of the Vatican that you could never see if you were to visit as an ordinary tourist.
You’ll view sights and treasures that only a few are ever allowed to observe, and have extraordinary opportunity to be close to the Vatican’s museums and ceremonies, and to the people who live and work there.
Examine this magnificent volume – free in your home
You’re invited to reserve this attractive new volume now. Simply return the enclosed Reservation Card and your edition will be shipped for your free examination.
Send no money. I’m confident that once you see this amazing book, you won’t be able to put it down! INSIDE THE VATICAN offers you and your family many hours of delight and attraction.

I’ll call my father tomorrow which is Father’s Day. Every other 1 I call,Morn answers and Dad quietly picks up the 2 and listens in to our conversation.But 3 Father’s Day, we will talk a little about my job,my family and the weather. Then Dad will say,“Thanks for 4 ,son ,”and hang up.
5 it is almost summer, every year after our Father’s Day talk,I’m left with images of my father and the cold.As a boy I watched him out of the kitchen window 6 our lane(道) of snow with the first snow blower(旋转式清雪机). First,he’d do our walk and then he’d blow the lanes of the shut-ins(不能出门的病人),the single morns,and poorer folks, 7 could not seem to get it together.
I 8 him and learned from him,but I 9 not remember my father and me ever having much of a conversation.Nothing that he 10 shared、vim me in a heart-felt way showed that he may be 11 ,upset or ready to climb the wall.
The last time I saw my father, I asked him to go out for a 12 with me.The sun was setting over the lake and I said,“Come on.We don’t 13 much time together any more. Let’s go. ”Father looked at me meaningfully and said,“ 14 . ”
That visit to my father was about a week before September 11 th.I was near Ground Zero on that day and for five hours 15 the first plane struck, my family did not know of my whereabouts(下落). 16 for me I arrived back at our home in Brooklyn.My biggest 17 was that my wife told me my father was 18 to drive from his home on Lake Huron to Ground Zero to find me.
To love the remote father is to face this paradox(矛盾):to accept his refusal of my 19 for a sunset walk with his worry that I might have died with thousands of others last September; to deeply know, if not accept,that is his way, the way a man of 10 words,snowblower of shut-ins and lonely hearts,can best show a father’s love.
