1个回答

On hearing the sound of soft footsteps,she wanted to run away,but fear held her still.她一听到那轻轻的脚步声就想跑掉,但是恐惧使得不敢移动半步.

解析:

1. 就提供的选项而言,表示“一如何就如何”有下列几种方法:

* on/upon + 动名词(知觉动词)短语;

* as soon as + 从句.

所以本题的前半句可以用下列方法表示:

* On hearing the sound of soft footsteps,

* As soon as she heard the sound of soft footsteps,

由此可见 as soon as 不符合题意.

2. hold still 是系表结构,这里的 hold 是表示保持某种状态的系动词,still 是形容词作表语,意思是“一动不动地呆着/不移动半步”.

选项中的几个形容词的区别如下;

* quiet 表示没有声音;

* still.表示静止/不移动状态

* firm 表示稳固的、可以抵抗外来压力的
