--Were you late for the film?
--Very late. Half of it by the time we the cinema.
A. was shown; reached
B. had been shown; reached
C. was shown; had reached
D. had been shown; lad reached

A. was shown; reached(答案→)B. had been shown; reachedC. was shown; had reachedD. had been shown; lad reached解析：考查时态。by the time意为到……时，主句用过去完成时，从句用一般过去时，而电影又是被放映的，就要选被动态。句意：——你们电影迟到了吗？——非常迟。我们到达电影院的时候已经放映了一半了。故B正确。

这个答案应该是对的
