Question

____ his eyes, Tom found himself ____ on the roadside.

A．Opened, lied	B．Opened, laid
C．Opening, lying	D．Opening, lain

Answer 1

C

试题分析：句意：汤姆睁开眼，发现自己躺在路边。lied“说谎”的过去式或过去分词；laid是lay“放，下蛋”的过去式；lain是lie“躺”的过去分词；逻辑主语Tom与open之间是主动关系，故排除AB；find oneself doing发现某人在做某事；这里himself与lie“躺”之间是主动关系；根据句意故选C。
