问题补充：

The lazy waiter to his boss that he had the table.

A. lied; laid

B. lay; laid

C. lied; lay

D. laid; lay

答案：

(答案→)A. lied; laid

B. lay; laid

C. lied; lay

D. laid; lay

解析：考查lie用法；动词lie有两层含义：表示“说谎”时，是规则动词。过去式和过去分词都是“lied”;表示“位于，躺”时候，过去式和过去分词“lay, lain”；动词lay（下蛋，产卵；放置；铺）是规则动词，过去式和过去分词为“laid, laid”；句意：那位懒惰的服务员向老板说谎说他已经铺好了桌子了。故A正确。
