　　这句话的意思是自从大学毕业以后，他就在这家会计公司工作。该句是since引导的时问状语从句。前句已经用了过去式，主句应是与其对应的完成时态，由于该动作一直持续到现在，所以用现在完成时。
　　21. We look forward to________ to the opening ceremony.

　　B be invited
　　C having been invited
　　D being invited
　　答案:D
　　短语用法。look forward to doing sth．渴望做某事，如：My mother says she’s looking forward to meeting you．我妈说她想见见你。因此答案只能从C和D中选择。渴望被邀请，这件事情还未发生，因此用完成时不合适。[译文]我们渴望被邀参加开幕式。
