Skill Development

动词和形容词后的介词

英语的动词(练习的第8项)或系表结构中的形容词之后(练习的第1项)都可以加介词,构成不同的含义和用法。常见的改错题主要围绕加介词和不加介词的意义差别进行考核。 要识别此类错误,要注意辨析动词的及物和不及物用法,以及系表结构的带介词和不带介词的用法之间的差别。例如be aware后面可以接“of+名词”,也可以接that引导的宾语从句。而ask既有及物的用法(+somebody),也有一些不及物的用法(ask for, ask about, ...)。根据语法知识(出现that从句,不能用“of+名词”结构)和上下文意思(ask for是“请求”,而不是“问”的意思),可以发现这里的错误。
