Question

12．他到达电影院，却被告知票已经卖完了．（to do 做状语）He got to the cinema，only to be told that all the tickets had been sold out．．

Answer 1

分析 他到达电影院，却被告知票已经卖完了．

解答 答案：He got to the cinema，only to be told that all the tickets had been sold out．
考查动词不定式做结果状语．句子里，动词不定式only to be told 做出乎意料的结果状语；它的宾语从句that all the tickets had been sold out因为发生在only to be told 之前，所以用过去完成时．

点评 考查汉译英．
to do作结果状语，其动作发生在谓语动词动作之后，表示出乎预料或不好的结果；doing作结果状语，是伴随谓语动词而产生的一种意料中的自然结果，前后为因果关系，其逻辑主语多为前边整个句子．如：
　　1．He lifted a heavy stone only to drop it on his own feet．
　　2．What have I done to make you so angry？
　　3．The child fell，striking his head against the door and cutting it．
