Mark the letter A, B, C, or D to show the underlined part that needs correction
Question:
Find the mistake: Although at that time my knowledge of German was very poor, I was understood most of what they said.
-
A.
my knowledge of -
B.
was -
C.
most of -
D.
said
Reference explanation:
Correct answer: GET
The answer is NO
Translation: Although at that time my knowledge of German was very poor, but I still understood most of what they said.
=> Based on the grammatical structure, we see that B is wrong. Because if I use “was” the sentence will have a passive meaning while the sentence is only an active sentence- I can “understand most of what they say” but not “understand everything they say!”
Edit: was => quit
