Question

The naught boy pretended ________ (read) when he saw his mother coming.

请老师详解 谢谢！

Answer 1

to be reading
pretend to be doing sth 假装在做某事
语言点：
pretend 是及物动词， 意为“假装”
后面可以接宾语从句，动词不定式， 但不能接动名词作宾语。

The naught boy pretended to be reading....
那个调皮的男孩假装在看书

等于：
The naught boy pretended that he was reading....
