高考临近,小编为大家准备了些高考短语及其用法和搭配,希望大家能从中获益!
有这样一道题:
No matter how much you’ve learned and how high a standard of education you have had, you must _______ the people heart and soul.
A. serve B. serve for
C. serve to D. serve on
【陷阱】容易误选B,即字对字地翻译汉语的“全心全意为人民服务”,将其中的“为”译为 for。
【分析】答案选A,serve 意为“为……服务”,可直接用作及物动词,其后不能按汉语意思误加介词 for。请看以下类似例子(from www.nmet168.cn):
(1) I _____ you yesterday, but you weren’t in.
A. rang B. rang to
C. rang with D. rang to
答案选A,ring 可以用作及物动词,表示“给……打电话”,故其后不用介词。
(2) Neither of her parents wanted her to _____ her cousin.
A. marry B. marry to
C. marry with D. marry for
答案选A,marry 可用作及物或不及物动词,用作及物动词时它的意思“与……结婚”,而不仅仅是“结婚”,也就是说,后接宾语时,无需用介词 to, with 等。
(3) How can I _____ you, Mr. Green?
A. contact B. contact with
C. contact to D. contact for
答案选A,contact 为及物动词,表示“与……联系”,其后不接介词(from www.nmet168.cn)。
