By the time some scientists ____ the lost towns, they ____ an awesome historical site.
A.had found, had foundB.found, found
C.found, had foundD.had found, found
C

試題分析:考查時態(tài)。By要和完成時連用,如果by后面的句子使用一般過去時,主句使用過去完成時的形式。句意:到一些科學家分析那些失蹤的城鎮(zhèn)的時候,他們已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)了這些有歷史意義的遺址。故C正確。
點評:連詞by到…時為止;該詞經(jīng)常與完成時連用,如果后面是現(xiàn)在的時間,句中就使用現(xiàn)在完成時;如果后面是過去的時間,就使用過去完成時;如果后面是將來的時間,就使用將來完成時。
