Often the reason that someone might "se cacher" is so that he or she can do what?

“Se cacher” means “to hide.” Someone often hides so they can surprise another person, which is “surprendre” in French. “Arriver” means “to arrive,” “recevoir” means “to receive,” and “omettre” means “to omit,” so those choices do not fit the reason for hiding.
