．关键句型练习答案
A The man said that he was travelling
on the eight o'clock train to London at the
time the murder was committed. The
inspector asked him if he always caught
such an early train. The man said that
he did because he had to be at work at ten
o'clock, and that his employer would
confirm that he was there on time. The
inspector then asked him if a later
train would get him to work on time. The man
supposed that it would, but said that
he never caught a later train. The inspector
asked at what time he had arrived at
the station. The man said that he had
arrived at the station at ten to eight.
He added that he had bought a paper and
waited for the train. When the
inspector asked him if he had noticed anything
unusual, the man said he hadn't. The
inspector suggested that he was not
telling the truth and that he did not
catch the eight o'clock train, but (caught)
the eight twenty-five, which would
still get him to work on time. The inspector
pointed out that on the morning of the
murder, the eight o'clock train did not run
at all, as it had broken down at
Ferngreen station and had been taken off the
line.
