試題分析：考查虛擬語(yǔ)氣：在as if/as though引導(dǎo)的狀語(yǔ)從句中，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多用倒退一個(gè)時(shí)間段的方式來(lái)表達(dá)虛擬語(yǔ)氣。和現(xiàn)在情況相反用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，和過(guò)去時(shí)間相反用過(guò)去完成式，這題因?yàn)橹骶涫莝he speaks所以是和現(xiàn)在相反，用一般過(guò)去時(shí)，虛擬語(yǔ)氣中be動(dòng)詞用were。句意：她說(shuō)話的樣子好像她在現(xiàn)場(chǎng)。選B。
考點(diǎn)：考查虛擬語(yǔ)氣
點(diǎn)評(píng)：在as if/as though引導(dǎo)的狀語(yǔ)從句中用法：謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞多用倒退一個(gè)時(shí)間段的方式來(lái)表達(dá)虛擬語(yǔ)氣。例如： The man speaks as if he were a foreigner./The speaker told us a lot about that country as though he had been there many times.注：as if/as though從句中不一定都要用虛擬語(yǔ)氣。如果情況真實(shí)性、可能性很大，就要用正常時(shí)態(tài)來(lái)描繪。例如：It looks as if it is going to rain.天看起來(lái)象要下雨。（下雨的可能性很大。）
