Question

what he said just now, _____ to cheer his wife up, made her sadder, however.（在线等）

A. had intended B. intended
C. being intended D. to intend这道题为什么选B

Answer 1

您好！很高兴为您解答！
因为intended是非谓语动词，跟后面的made一起都是done做非谓语动词，表示一种状态
翻译：他刚说的话，使得他妻子高兴，但是，也使她更加忧伤

希望可以帮到您，祝您成功！

Answer 2

B
which was intended to的省略形势。他刚才说的话原本想让他的妻子高兴一下，然而却让她更加伤心了。

追问

有sth be intended to do 这个结构吗

Answer 3

这道题就是定语从句which was intended to的省略。
因为intend的固定用法是，be intended to.所以，省略之后就是B
