假期很快就要到来。但是在这之前还有期末测试。所有的学生都会很努力得学习一段时间。如果他们通过不了考试，他们就必须得在九月份的时候重考。通常都会有几个人挂科，但是凯特不打算成为他们中的一员。她终日努力学习，但她熬夜熬得太迟了。第一科考试的前一夜，她的姐姐要求她早点睡觉，并且服用一颗安眠药。她向她保证会在第二天早上叫醒她。
这里其实可以有两种表达，stay up late preparing for/to prepare for the final exams 熬夜准备期末考试。如果用preparing 就是表示stay up 的伴随状态；
用to prepare则是不定式表示stay up late的目的。
根据提供的选项，只可以选择B
stay up late to prepare for the final exams 熬夜(晚上睡觉睡得晚，目的就是为了)准备期末考试。
根据提供的选项，只可以选择B。
本来A preparing 也是可以的，但是它多了一个动词不定式to。用现在分词短语，可以表达 伴随着的状态。
勤学好问，天天进步！
加油！你是最棒的！
表示目的状语，为了准备期末考试
