问题
选择题
(2013·辽宁五校一模)The little child ________ go out alone at night, so he ________ walk in the dark that night.
A．doesn't dare to; dared not to
B．daren't to; didn't dare to
C．daren't; dared not
D．doesn't dare to; dare not
答案
答案：C
选C 考查dare的用法。句意：那个小孩晚上不敢独自外出，所以那晚他不敢在黑暗中行走。dare既可作实义动词，也可作情态动词，作实义动词时，一般用dare to do sth.，在否定句和疑问句中to可省略，作情态动词时，后接动词原形。分析各个选项可排除A、B两项，再根据句中的that night可知，第二空应用一般过去时，排除D项。
