二、介词使用错误 1、普通介词的误用 一般表现为固定搭配错误,如常把 provide sb with sth用成provide sb sth; be satisfied with用成be satisfied for等等,虽然这样的错误看似无伤大雅,但在考官眼里就是影响顺畅阅读的,当然会影响最终成绩。解决的办法简单而古老:把常见的固定搭配牢记于心,问题自然就解决了。 2、 "to"作为介词的误用 "to"最常见的用法是以动词不定式符号的形式出现的,所以同学们也已经习惯了 “to do”的固定搭配。对于一些如walk to me, to the left等介词to表方向等常见用法一般也不会出现错误。但是对于与动词搭配的介词to就会经常犯错: 如: More and more students have taken to depend on their parents to make decision for them. 这里的 ‘take to’ means ‘to begin to do sth as a habit’ 其中 ‘to’为介词,所以后面只能接名词或相当于名词的词,如动名词。所以黑体处应改为“depending on”。“take to”的另一个常用用法也需要牢记: He hasn’t taken to his new school. (这里‘take to’ means ‘to start liking sb or sth’) Prefer A to B中的 “to”也是介词,会有 prefer doing sth to doing sth/ prefer sth to sth else,“prefer to do sth rather than do sth”中的“to”可是真正的不定式符号。 类似的常用用法请同学们牢记: Be used to doing Be accustomed to doing See to doing Adapt to doing Adjust to doing prefer doing sth. to doing sth. 等等,请注意平时仔细积累。 (责任编辑:xiaoxiao) |
