今天做的一张试卷里面完形填空里面出现的。

Never give up on the good times! Just ask the residents of the Palace Nursing & Rehab Center in Miami, Florida, who recently got their very own “senior prom.”And some happy seniors _________to take a trip down memory lane.

A.hestitated    B.promised   C. thrilled    D. arranged

这里答案很明显，是选C，因为其他选项意思根本不对，可是转念一想，这里的thrill前面不该有个were吗？然后去查了字典，发现 thrilled to前面都是都要加 be 动词的，比如：

He's thrilled to bits at the news.  他听到这个消息欣喜若狂。

I was thrilled to hear that I had passed the entrance examination.  听说我已通过了入学考试，我非常兴奋。

We are thrilled to have you.  能把你请来我们的节目我们都很激动

如果就 thrilled 单独出现的话，是可以的，因为thrill这个词可以当动词，很好理解，比如：

The electric atmosphere both terrified and thrilled him. 极度紧张的气氛让他既害怕又兴奋。

但是，这张试卷这个句子主语是人，后面又用了 thrilled to，所以我觉得肯定是要加上were的，要不然意思是过不去的。

后来我挂了vpn去google找到了原文，原来原文是这样的：

There was a prom court. There were some memorable dance moves — and some happy seniors thrilled to take a trip down memory lane.

那么就很好理解了，相当于定于从句省略了 who were，可以是 There was a prom court. There were some memorable dance moves — and some happy seniors（who were） thrilled to take a trip down memory lane.

可是然而卷子里面的那个句子 And 是单独的句子，不应该直接 thrilled to 吧。

不知道是我的理解不对还是这张试卷的这个题出的不严谨，说的有点啰嗦了，希望有高手老师能解答一下，十分感激。
