The secretary worked late into the night, _____ a long speech for the president.
A.to prepareB.preparingC.preparedD.was preparing
B

试题分析:考查分词做状语。本题中的动词prepare与句子主语the secretary构成主动的关系,故使用现在分词表示主动和正在进行。句意:那个秘书一职工作到深夜,为主席准备一个很长的发言稿。故B正确。
点评:当分词做状语的时候,如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系,就使用现在分词做状语;当二者构成被动关系,使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前,就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系,可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。
