Question

（2017湖北省恩施州中考）In old days, the poor _______ for the boss for over 18 hours a day.

A. was made to be worked B. were made work C. were made to work

C 【解析】考查被動語態(tài)，句意：過去，窮人每天為老板工作超過18小時。The+形容詞表示一類人作主語時，謂語用復數(shù)，因此A不對。make使役動詞，用于被動語態(tài)時，后面的to不能省略，因此B不正確。這里是一般過去時的被動語態(tài)，結(jié)構(gòu)是was/were +動詞的過去分詞，故選C。
