问题     On a four-day trip to Ethiopia,I had a dream. In my dream, I saw two men, one older and one younger, facing one another against a background of temples and pyramids.

For the next six days I privately wondered what【32】to use in such a ceremony. Gradually the words【33】me. By the time we arrived in Cairo, I was ready. I told my son that there was a ceremony I wanted to【34】him in the tombs in Egypt. His eyes shone with【35】. But I wondered if he would still be receptive after my next statement. In the dream I remembered that the son was oiled, as it【36】, with a dry substance. I took this to mean that powder【37】oil was used. But what powder? I ruled out ground grass and flowers, and finally settled on sand. Sand represents the Sahara, and sand also【38】the remains of the ancient people of Egypt.

选项 A、are
B、is
C、was
D、were

答案A

解析 首先应该判断出此处要用一般现在时态,原因是这个词组“在现实中(but in the real world)”。此外,应该看出本句话的主语是“or”前面的部分“young adults”,属于复数名词,后面的谓语动词应该使用复数形式“are”。
