不对。因为during 表示在某段时间之内。例句, I fell asleep during the film.
不对,因为 for 是表示从过去某一段时间到现在为止的时间概念。例句,' I've lived in London for 6 years'.

The possible answers were:
Geordie
Cockney

不对。Geordie 是英格兰北部Tyneside这个地区特有的一种方言。不过, 'The Beatles' 并不来自这个地区。
选对了。'The Beatles'(甲壳虫乐队)来自英国利物浦,是利物浦人'Scousers',当地的方言是 'Scouse'.
不对。Cockney 是伦敦东区特有的一种口音,不过 'The Beatles' 并非来自伦敦。
不对。 R.P. 是标准英语语音( Received Pronunciation)的缩写。 不过,来自利物浦的'The Beatles' 应该说什么方言呢?

语法错误。
语法错误。
就语法而言,这个选择没有错。不过,语言在变化,你会发现,如今一些教育程度较低的英国人常用 innit 来代替所有的代词。虽然口语交流没有问题,但是,正式场合还是应该遵循语法规则。
选择正确,不过,要知道,有良好教育背景的人一般不会是用这个俗语,虽然口语过得去,但是,不能在正式场合使用,因为不合语法习惯。
