6.The policeman came up to the lonely house with the door ____(open), ____(stand) there for a while and then entered it.（填空练习）

答案：open; stood

解析： with the door open是with 的复合结构，open 为形容词，表状态； stood与came，entered为并列关系,在句中作谓语。

【小知识】动词不定式可以作下列的状语

①目的状语： Every morning he gets up very early to read English.

为了强调不定式表示目的的作用，可在不定式前加in order to或so as to（以便或为了），但应注意in order to位于句首或句中均可，而so as to不能位于句首，如：She reads China Daily every day in order to (so as to) improve her English.

将表示目的的不定式置于句首，也可强调目的的作用，如：To master a foreign language, one must work hard at it.

②结果状语：They lived to see the liberation of their home town.他们活到亲眼见到了他们家乡的解放。

③too + 形容词或副词 + 动词不定式，表示“足能”的结果，如：You are old enough to take care of yourself now.
