题目内容
He was busy writing a story, only _____once in a while to smoke a cigarette.
A.to stop | B.stopping | C.to have stopped | D.having stopped |
B
解析试题分析:考查分词做状语。本题中的动词stop与句子的主语he构成主动的关系,故使用现在分词的形式。根据句意说明现在动词的动作和句子谓语动词的动作是同时发生的,故使用现在分词的一般式即可。句意:他忙于写小说,只是偶尔停下来抽支烟。故B正确。
考点:考查分词做状语
点评:当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。

An 8-year-old girl was dragged about 900 feet by a school bus today in Livingston County.
According to State Police, the incident occurred about 2:40 pm on State Route 436 in the town of Ossian after three sisters were dropped off the bus.
As the last sister was leaving the bus, driver John Coley, 62 , of Wayland, Steuben County, told the police that he was not paying attention when he closed the door and trapped her backpack inside. Coley then continued 900 feet before he realized the girl was being dragged, State Police said.
The girl was hurt and was transported to Nicholas H Noyes Memorial Hospital in Dansville,Livingston County, by Dansville Ambulance.
Another 8-year-old child on the bus said he hit his head on the seat in front of him when the bus came to a sudden stop, causing an earache.
