the teacher could not make himself ___ attention to because the students were so noisy.

the teacher could not make himself ___ attention to because the students were so noisy.
a.pay
b.paid
答案当然选b.这属于一个明显的make oneself +_done 结构，make 作谓语，himself 作宾语，paid attention to 即过去分词表被动作宾语补足语，（注意这里的to千万不能去掉）。

B
被学生注意，被动

B,应该是paid.
这是使动用法，make somebody done sth.

选B，因为是使自己被别人注意,himself与pay是被动关系
例如
i must have my clothes washed,they are too dirty.
