【问】 Fred_____.
 A. went just B. just was going
 C. has just gone D. just has gone (Nelson，100B)
 不知如何答这道题。
 【答】 当just作“刚才”、“刚刚”(very recently)或“就在那时”(at this (that) precise moment)解时，动词一般要用完成体或进行体，而且总是占句中位置(即实义动词之前，助动词或联系动词之后)，因此应排除选择B和D的可能性：
 1. I've just seen Professor Grant. (Gronin)
 我刚刚见到格兰特教授。
 2. When I saw her，she has just come back. (CGEL)
 当我见到她时，她刚回来。
 3. I have just received a letter from my brother，Tim.
 我刚刚收到我兄弟蒂姆的一封信。
 4. Mr James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought another garage inPinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury，but Mr Scott cannot get a telephonefor his new garage，so he has just bought twelve pigeons. (New Concept English，
 Book 2，L. 5)
 詹姆斯·斯科特先生在塞尔珀里有个汽车修理工场。现在他又在平赫斯特买下另一个汽车修理工场。平赫斯特离塞尔珀里只有五英里，但斯科特先生新买下的汽车
 修理工场装不上电话机，所以他就买了十二只鸽子。
 5. I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street. (New Concept English.Book 2.L.6)
 我刚刚搬入大桥街的一所房子。
 在非正式的美国英语中，just可以与过去时连用，但仍居句中位置(因此，应排除选择A的可能性)：
 She just spoke to me about it. (CGEL)
 她刚才向我谈了这件事。
