The drunken husband knocked against the table and sent the bowls ___ in all directions before he was sent ___ by his wife
a. flying; to sleep b. flying; sleeping
选A,第2个空里的to是介词的话,后面怎么会是sleep呢?

sent sb to do 表示送某人去做什么事情。sent sb to 后面加上地点,表示送某人去哪里。
句意:在妻子送他去睡觉以前,喝醉的丈夫敲着桌子把碗筷随意乱丢。
送他去睡觉,sleep表示送他去这一动作,而sleeping 则表示睡觉时的状态或者熟睡的样子。to sleep 更符合句意。

sleeping是正在睡觉
sleep是去睡觉这个动作

本题里强调,他妻子让他去睡觉的动作,所以是sent sb to do sth。
sent somebody to somewhere,也是可以的,
这里的to不是介词,而是联接两个动词,与sleep构成动词不定式。

his wife sent him to sleep.
he was sent to sleep by his wife

明白了吗?

就是他老婆打点他谁觉send sb to do sth么
