问题: mention 的用法是怎么的? 请根据此题详细说说,谢谢!!!!

I hear they’ve promoted Tom, but he didn’t mention _____ when we talked on the phone.
A. to promote B. having been promoted
C. having promoted D. to be promoted

解答:

B
I hear they’ve promoted Tom, but he didn’t mention _____ when we talked on the phone.
从句意判断,Tom已经升职,但说话者在与Tom打电话时,Tom并未提及自己升职的事。
升职发生在mention之前(不然就无所谓提及不提及),所以用have done形式,promote是及物动词,所以此处用be promoted。mention是及物动词,直接加宾语,不用不定式。
其实也就相当于He didn’t mention that he had been promoted when we talked on the phone.
