With the food running out的理解问题to

With the food ______, he had to go out.

to buy something.

A. running out of B. run out

C. running out D. ran out

答案为C，food 与running out 的主被动关系是什么样的？the food 不是被 run out of 的么？of 后不应该接宾语么。所以用 C 我总感觉不好理解。谢谢!

run out不及物，不需要宾语；run out of及物，须带宾语。比较：

Dollys store of drinking glasses had run out. 多利存放的酒杯已经用完了。《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

He has run out of food; his children are hungry. 他家揭不开锅了, 小孩们都等着吃饭。《现代汉英综合大词典》
