问一道英语试题
…I know nothing about the history of the telephone.Could you tell me _____
—Yes.in 1876.
A.who invented the telephone
B.how the telephone was invented
C.when was the telephone invent
D.when the telephone was invented

根据回答in 1876. 知道问的是时间,排除AB
宾语中用陈述语序,排除C,故选D

D.由in 1987说明上句问时间;并且could you tell me
+宾语从句 (从句使用主语加谓语的语序)

D 要用陈述句的形式
“电话是什么时候发明的”

看到回答是“in 1876",所以是提问时间的。
而从句中需要用陈述句型,所以选D.

选D.首先根据回可知,原句是在问电话发明的时间.所以只能从c,d上来选.原句要填的是宾语从句,这个宾语从句是嵌在疑问句中,而此宾语从句本身也是一个问句,但由于它是嵌在别的句子中的,所以要由用陈述句的顺序来作.而不应该再用疑问句的形式.

选D。
首先根据题目判定这是一个宾语从句。然后根据下文可以判断这是问时间的宾语从句,故而关系词应用when.故而排除A,B。又因为它是宾语从句,故而应使用陈述句语序。故选D
