carried

out D.hasbeencarriedout参考答案：A考查时态。句意：上个月我被派到村里去看看在过去的两年里发展计划是如何执行的。根据句中时间状语lastmonth和inthepasttwoyears可知，空格处所用的动词carryout发生在sent之前，所以是“过去的过去”，故用过去完成时。故选A。点睛：本题考查时态。句中包含的时间状语是解答此题的突破点，所以要做好此类题，一定要注意题中有没有明确的时间点，或者其他可以代替时间点的词，所以根据时间状语可以看出正确答案。本题的关键在于抓住题干中的两个时间状语lastmonth和inthepasttwoyears，从而得出答案。13.Wehavebeencaught
