A.surprisingB.to be surprised
C.surprisedD.having surprised
C

试题分析:考察形容词用法。本句指的两个形容词surprising令人惊讶的,这是由现在分词转换而来的形容词,通常修饰事物。Surprised感到惊讶的,这是由过去分词转换而来的形容词,通常修饰人或者与人有关的事物。惊讶:尽管看到这个陌生人感到很奇怪,但是这个家庭主妇仍然给了对方很大的微笑并打招呼。本句指的形容词surprised是对句子的主语the housewife的情况进行的说明。故C正确。
点评:由分词转换成的形容词用法是考查较多的内容。过去分词转换的形容词常常用来修饰人或者与人有关的事物如look, appearance;现在分词转换的形容词常常用来修饰事物。这样的形容词经常在句中做表语或者定语修饰名词,也可以在句中构成形容词短语对主句的情况进行说明。
