[文法] 過去式vs.現在式

[Nonehope (系色望)]

這是一篇短文中的第一段：

    Swimmer Michael Phelps became the most decorated Olympian of all time

during the London Olympics.  Queen Elizabeth II's granddaughter, Zara Philllips,

helped her equestrian team win a silver medal.  The American women's

gymnastics team won gold. All of them are very different athletes.  All were

elite. Do they have a genetic edge over the rest of us?


    想請問第四行中的All were elite.既然前一行用現在式，這一行用的時態為何不是現

在式呢？因為他們現在都不是精英了嗎？
