Lesson 69: But not murder!并非谋杀!
I was being tested for a driving licence for the third time. I had been asked to drive in heavy traffic and had done so successfully. After having been instructed to drive out of town, I began to acquire confidence. Sure that I had passed, I was almost beginning to enjoy my test. The examiner must have been pleased with my performance, for he smiled and said. "Just one more thing, Mr.Eames. Let us suppose that a child suddenly crosses the road in front of you. As soon as I tap on the window, you must stop within five feet." I continued driving and after some time, the examiner tapped loudly, Though the sound could be heard clearly, it took me a long time to react. I suddenly pressed the brake pedal and we were both thrown forward. The examiner looked at me sadly. "Mr.Eames," he said, in a mournful voice, "you have just killed that child!"

After he became conscious, he remembered( )and ( )on the head with a rod.
(2006年髙考江西卷，第29题)
A. to attack; hit B. to be attacked; to be hit
C. attacking; be hit D. having been attacked; hit
答案：选D
分析：remember to do表示“记着去做”，而remember doing则是“记得做过”。结合句意 可排除A、B两项。又因句子主语he与动词attack是被动关系，故应选择D项。
翻译：苏醒后，他记起遭到了攻击并被人用棍子打了$广
