Question

It’s reported that by the end of last month the sale of the company ______ by 10%.A.has risen
B.had been rising
C.had risen
D.has been rising
这个句子考查的什么时态呀?

Answer 1

个人觉得选C.
理由：首先排除B,没有这种时态；题干中有by the end of last month时间状语,故排除A；剩下C和D,又由于D是现在完成进行时,表示一直在增长还没有停止,而增长这一事件是上过月报告的,可以直接用过去完成时,表示在报告之前就已经完成了.过去完成时表示过去的过去.故选C
