In the face of the big fire in October in California，many people in the fire-stricken areas moved out __________.
A．to escape burning
B．to escape being burned
C．escaping burned
D．escaping from burning
答案
B
不定式作目的状语。escape 意为“逃脱”,不接不定式,而常接-ing形式作宾语。只能接-ing形式作宾语的动词还有:mind，admit,avoid，appreciate，consider(考虑)，delay，imagine，miss，practice等。
