A. got; has begun
B. got; had been on
C. got; had begun
D. got; has been on
点拨:可用语法判断法解答本题。句意:-你没看那部电影?-不,我看了。但是当我
到达电影院时,电影已经放映好几分钟了。“我”到达电影院发生在过去,电影开始为过去的过去,由此可判断前一空的时态应用一般过去时,后一空的时态应用过去完成时。begin为非延续性动词,不能和表示一段时间的时间状语连用,此处应该用be on.故选B.
②(上海中考)By the end of last week, she _________ in the west of China for two months helping the homeless children.
A. will stay
B. has stayed
C. would stay
D. had stayed
点拨:可用语法判断法解答本题。句意:到上个周末,她待在中国西部帮助那些无家可归的孩子已经两个月了。“by the end of+过去的时间”是过去完成时常用的时间状语,故该句应用过去完成时。故选D.
