Question

—What does your father often do after dinner?

—He often     after supper. But now, he ________.

A.reading newspapers; listening to music B.reads newspapers; is listening to music

C.reads newspapers; listens to music D.is reading newspapers; listens to music

Answer

B

【解析】

句意：——你爸爸晚饭后经常做什么？——他晚饭后通常会看报纸，但是现在他在听音乐。

考查一般现在时和现在进行时。根据问句可知是问他父亲晚饭后一般做什么，用一般现在时来表达，故第一空填reads newspapers；第二空前有“But now”，说明是对现在的描述，用现在进行时，故填is listening to music。故选B。
