答案:4. C 如图,作点F关于AB的对称点$F'$,连接$EF',AC,OF$,则$EF'$与AB的交点就是所求的点P,此时$PE+PF=EF'$.
$\because F$为$\widehat {BC}$的中点,$\therefore ∠CAF=∠BAF$,$\because AE⊥OD,\therefore ∠AEC=∠AEO=90^{\circ }$,又$\because AE=AE,\therefore △AEC≌ △AEO(ASA),\therefore AC=OA$,$\because OA=OC,\therefore AC=OA=OC,\therefore △OAC$为等边三角形,$\therefore ∠AOC=∠OAC=60^{\circ },\because AO⊥AD,\therefore ∠DAO=90^{\circ }$,$\therefore ∠D=30^{\circ },\therefore OA=\frac {1}{2}OD$.$\because CD=4,\therefore OA=\frac {1}{2}(OA+4)$,解得$OA=4$,$\therefore AE=OA· sin∠AOC=4×sin60^{\circ }=2\sqrt {3}$,$\because OE⊥AF,\therefore AF=2AE=4\sqrt {3}$,连接$AF',\because $点F与点$F'$关于AB对称,$\therefore \widehat {AF}=\widehat {AF'},\widehat {BF}=\widehat {BF'},\therefore AF=AF',∠BAF=∠BAF'$,$\because ∠OAC=60^{\circ },∠CAF=∠BAF$,$\therefore ∠CAF=∠BAF=∠BAF'=30^{\circ }$,$\therefore ∠FAF'=60^{\circ },\therefore △AFF'$为等边三角形,$\therefore EF'⊥AF(E,P,F'$三点共线),$\therefore EF'=AF'· sin60^{\circ }=4\sqrt {3}×\frac {\sqrt {3}}{2}=6$,$\therefore PE+PF$的最小值为6,故选C.
