            (28268-!-item-!-188;#058&002937)     (T-3-Q14)

A scrub jay can remember when it cached a particular piece of food in a particular place, researchers have discovered, and tend not to bother to recover a perishable treat if stored long enough to have rotted.

A. tend not to bother to recover a perishable treat if

B. they tend not to bother recovering a perishable treat

C. tending not to bother to recover a perishable treat it

E. tends not bothering to recover a perishable treat it

D. tends not to bother recovering a perishable treat

请问bother to 和bother doing 的区别。。。？

我错选了A,现在看tend 肯定是和can 并列的不能和remember 并列

另外stored long enough 是修饰treat的么？怎么没看懂。。。谢谢了！
