问题描述：
---Excuse me .Could you tell me__________________________? --- Sorry.I have no idea,either
C.what was the matter with him
D.what is the trouble with him
难道C中一定不能用过去式吗?
答
这里的Could一定不可理解为一般过去式。这里是更礼貌的问法，语气更委婉。这种考法在高中经常会遇到。
答
这里的could 不是过去式，只是can委婉的一种说法。就像Could you help me?要比用Can感觉客气。
答
不是,整个句子你怎么知道是过去时态呢.从何得出?
除非像
I【 didn't】 know what was the matter with the machine.
Could you tell us what was wrong/the trouble with him 【yesterday】?
这样的才行
没有准确的时态标志不要乱来呀~
这里的could是表示提问者的委婉,礼貌,不是过去式..= =
答
都不对, 宾语从句需陈述句结构, is was 必须在主语后面.
答案一定在A, B中.
时态一定是一般现在时态, 不是过去时态.
