I’m really sorry, Lucy. I ______ to help you, but I was too busy at that time.

A．meant

B．mean

C．had meant

D．have meant

答案

C

解析

试题分析：考查had meant to do表示虚拟语气：句意：很抱歉，露西，我本打算帮你的，但那时我太忙了。用had meant to do表示本打算做…却没做…,也可以是meant to have done。选C。
点评：动词mean与intend的用法一样,即meant to do sth / meant to have done sth / had meant to do sth的形式都可以表示虚拟语气。动词hope, plan, want, suppose, expect等的过去式后接不定式的完成形式或过去完成时后接简单不定式也可以表虚拟语气。
