Favorite Answer

The man your father was talking to ___ to work everyday.

(中譯: 剛剛正與你父親說話的人每天都開車上班)

其實是2個句子合併為一句。

把這2個句子還原，你就會了解為何答案是A了。請見以下:

首先，將句子還原成一個簡單的填充題，如下:

The man ___ to work everyday.

(A) drives (B) driving (C) drove (D) will drive

看到句尾的時間說明是everyday，所以，答案是A

再來，將your father was talking to....簡單還原成另一句子，如下:

Your father was talking to the man.

(中譯:剛剛你父親正與一個人談話)

所以，2個句子是合併在一起便如你的題目，其實此句也是個倒裝句，可以用2種方式說明，如下:

(原文) Your father was talking to the man who drives to work everyday.

(倒裝句) The man your father was talking to drives to work everyday.

在倒裝句裡的用法，當你原文的受詞(The man)放在句首時，後面可接(亦可不接)who來說明。

所以，其實這個句子也可以這個方式來表達，如下:

The man who your father was talking to drives to work everyday.

希望你看得懂

Answer 2

The man your father was talking to (drives) to work every day .

這個你爸爸昨天跟他談話的男人, 每天開車上班

因為是每天的動作, 過去, 今天, 明天都一樣的動作, 所以用 drives, 不受前面形容 the man 的形容詞子句的動詞 was 的影響

Answer 3

The man your father was talking to drives to work every day .

時態是every day --> 每天

主詞是The man -->第三人稱單數

所以動詞要加s-->drives

was talking 雖然是過去式

your father was talking to 是形容詞子句

在形容主詞

表示有一個男人...但是是什麼樣的男人...你爸爸昨天跟他講話的男人...不影響這個男人每天開車去工作

所以動詞選drives
