[FONT=宋体]I was just going to cut my rose bushes but someone____________ it.[/FONT]
[FONT=宋体] Was it you?[/FONT]
A. has done B. had done C. would do D will do
The given answer is B. But can we use A? I thought the time reference is now. We use the present perfect to offer new information and then use the past simple to give the details. So the following sentence 'Was it you?' is in the past simple. Am I right?
Thank you in advance.
