Question

A．to go into; to be bitten; lay

B．of going into; to bite; lying

C．of going into; to bite; laying

D．to go into; of being bitten; lying

Answer 1

D

试题分析：句意为：她害怕进入这个院子，因为她害怕被躺在门口的狗咬。动词scare的用法：be scared to do sth害怕做某事; be scared of ..因恐惧而担心……。由于句子的主语是she，是动作承受者，应用被动语态。另外，分词短语lying at the gate做后置定语，表示动作正在进行。故选D。
