I hearing June ( ) as a lawyer .Why did he quit teaching?Who knows?Maybe he just wants to experience a totally different life.A.is working B.was working选A请给解释,以及B怎么了不行?

问题描述:

I hearing June ( ) as a lawyer .Why did he quit teaching?
Who knows?Maybe he just wants to experience a totally different life.
A.is working B.was working
选A请给解释,以及B怎么了不行?

选A, just want to experience a different life. 说明过去和现在是不同的职业。 did he teaching 说明他过去是老师, 所以B was, 就矛盾了。 而A 用的是现在进行时,也就是现在的职业 lawyer 和过去的teacher不一样,符合逻辑关系。

当然A,后半句是why did he,did是过去时,表示他和¥之前放弃了教学,所以这句话可翻译成:我听说June现在当律师了。为什么他之前放弃教书了呢?......

这道题考察结合语言环境解题;
为什么他放弃教书了,说明他现在不在教书,所以第一句应该描述的是现在的状态即现在正在当律师,用现在进行时,B是过去进行时,不可以用哦。
希望有所帮助

时态的逻辑问题
quit teaching应该是在从事律师之前
若选B,句子应为Why had he quitted teaching?

问话的人:我听说June__现在是_A___律师.为何他要放弃教书?(说明现在June不教书而是律师)
回答的人:谁知道呢.他也许只是想体验一种完全不同的生活(这里wants用了一般现在时)
选b就是 June过去是律师,为什么(过去)放弃了教书 前后逻辑矛盾~

因为这句话说的是我听说June改做律师了。为什么他不再教人了
