语境是：学生时代，“他" 曾要求 "她" 许诺给他初夜，她同意了。但当时只是开个玩笑。8 g& Z% `$ i: T% P6 |
她结婚的当晚想起了这个诺言，于是告诉了丈夫。她和丈夫都认为，许诺的事情必须完成。于是她就出发去找到了当年的他。他表示，当初只是个玩笑。 1 Y) Z S2 D9 p0 r7 [7 d/ J' \ * i* V5 f# ], i' H( c$ [+ l: b... , troubled by her conscience, she confessed to her husband of the promise but expressed the belief that the young man was only joking. ; K `& ?& U& D& A" s) d/ w C/ B% H# @6 P2 d k4 n$ O
Your promise was demanded by me as a jest and I had forgoten it.9 A. E& V3 |$ G! o. b& a7 [
' I/ [# j& j+ ]% z0 A+ c第一句话中的 was only joking 使用过去进行时是否正确？因为这里要表达的是”过去的过去“，如果用 was joking 会不会和 expressed 时间上是平行的了？( J* V( r b' |: I0 P
第二句是 “他” 说的话，所以 was demanded 指的就是当年，但是随后用过去完成时 had forgoten 是否正确？这样不就成了 forget 在 demand 之前了么？
基于现在时间点看问题，会比较好理解* l0 V; g8 q4 W
