典型例题

A. to have rested
B. resting
C. to rest
D. rest
答案:C.由题意可知,她到了山顶,停下来在一个路边的大石头上休息。因此,应选择"stop to do sth. 停下来去做另一件事".而不仅仅是爬山动作的终止,所以stop doing sth.不正确。

典型例题
---- The light in the office is still on.
---- Oh,I forgot___.
A. turning it off
B. turn it off
C. to turn it off
D. having turned it off
答案:C.由the light is still on 可知灯亮着,即关灯的动作没有发生,因此用forget to do sth.
