问题 选择题

The children all turned         the famous actress as she entered the classroom.

A.looked at

B.to look at

C.to looking at

D.look at

答案

答案:B

本题考查考生对题干句子的理解和非谓语动词的掌握情况。这一题容易误选C,因为很多人以为此处的to是介词。事实上,turn to 是个常见的短语,意为“变成”“转向”“求助于”等。如:He turned to me for help.他向我求助。More and more people turn to computer science.愈来愈多的人从事计算机科学研究。Water turns to ice at 0℃.水在零摄氏度时变成冰。但是,turn 和to也可以理解为 是分开的,to 不定式表示目的,如人教版高中英语第28页就有一个句子:When the nation turned to help us in our need, it seemed as if....... 又如,《牛津词典》里有一句:He turned to look at me.词典里翻译为“他转过(身)来看着我”。我以为,本题是脱胎于词典里的这个句子(至少是一种巧合的雷同)。此处的to,相当于in order to。句意:孩子们都转过身,(目的是)看着那位著名的女演员。因此选B。
