Question

It took the police a long time to find some evidence. The new evidence led to ____________.

A．the robber having caught

B．catch the robber

C．the robber being caught

D．the robber to be caught

Answer 1

C

解析试题分析:考查非谓语用法。lead to 短语中 to为介词，后面应该跟动名词形式，所以排除B，D选项。动名词的逻辑主语the robber和动词catch之间构成被动关系，所以应该用动名词的被动形式，故C选项正确。句意：警察用了很长时间才找到一些证据。这些新证据最终使强盗被捕了。
考点：考查非谓语用法。
