After a decade or so, out of choices, he...

After a decade or so,       out of choices, he returned to where he’d begun, ashamed at having so little to show for his wanderings.

A. being run    B. running

C. to run    D. having run

 

D 【解析】 考查现在分词。句意:大约十年后,在没有选择的情况下,他回到了他开始的地方,为自己的拼搏没有什么收获而感到羞愧。run out of “用光,耗尽” 与主语he在逻辑上是主动关系,且表示的动作明显发生在return之前,所以用现在分词的完成时having run of。故D选项正确。
