Ed or ing?

In the reading room , we found her ____ at a desk, with her attention ___ on a book.
A. sitting; fixing
B. to sit; fixed
C. seating; fixing
D. seated; fixed

find sb doing sth vs find sb do sth(Is this one right?)

so seat can only be used as being seated(omitted being in this case)

her attention and fix is a passive relation, right? so with her attention fixed on a book.

Am I right?
