Question

【题目】______ to frighten the poor man, Mrs. Richards quickly hid in the small storeroom under the stairs.

A. Not wanted B. Wanted not C. Not wanting D. Wanting not

Answer 1

【答案】C

【解析】

考查非谓语动词。不想吓到那个穷人，Richards夫人马上藏到楼梯下的小储藏室里。Mrs. Richards与want之间是逻辑上的主谓关系，表示主动，应该用现在分词作原因状语，not放在want to前，故C项正确。
