问题 She hired a lawyer to investigate, only to learn that Gabriel had removed her name from the deed. The infinitive verb phrase "only to learn" is used ______.

选项 A、to express an intended purpose
B、to indicate a high degree of possibility
C、to reveal an undesirable consequence
D、to dramatize a stated fact

答案C

解析 only to do意为“结果却,不料”,用于表示结果令人失望或感到意外。因此,C项to reveal all undesirable consequence“揭示一个不合心意的结果”为本题答案。A项to express an intended purpose“表达预期目标”、B项to indicate a high degree of possibility“表示极高的可能性”和D项to dramatize a stated fact“戏剧化地陈述事实”均不符合题意。
