The boy often gives a satisfactory answer to the teacher's question, ___ just a minute. So he's usually the teacher's pet.
a. having thought b. and to think
c. thought d. thinking
为什么选A？ 怎么解释，其他项错在哪？
So he's usually the teacher's pet. 是老师的宠物？？？能这样翻吗？

Answer 1

首先，不是宠物，是宠儿。有些英语要意译。

前边B to think, to前跟谁？
C, thought,前边是现在时。
D, 表伴随，但是和A相比，明显A的时间前后更有层次

意思是想了一会儿（以后，想在答前，所以A），男孩总能给出满意的答案，所以他是老师的宠儿。

Answer 2

老师的宠儿

Answer 3

Answer 4
