问
Christie stared angrily at her boss and turned away, as though ____ out of the office. A. went B. gone C. to go D. would go(全国研考,00-6)
答案 C。但是,我不能解释为什么从属连词 though 可以跟动词不定式连用。
答
as though/as if 除了引导(方式)状语从句之外,也可以引出分词短语或动词不定式短语。例如:
-
She shook her head as if/as though to say “Don’t trust them.” 她摇了摇头，好像是说：“别相信他们”。
-
He cleared his throat as though to speak. 他清了清嗓子,似乎要说话。
关于这种结构的解释, 见 as if
[试题句意]克里斯蒂气愤地瞪了老板一眼，转过身去，好像要走出办公室似的。
