例三:Why don’t you just ____ your own business and leave me alone?
A. make B. open
C. consider D. mind
答案D。mind your own business:not ask questions about a situation that does not involve you,管你自己的事,非正式用法。consider:to think about something carefully, especially before making a choice or decision(做決定前仔細,認真)考慮。
例四:Does this meal cost $50? I __________ something far better than this!
A. prefer B. expect
C. suggest D. suppose
答案B。expect:to think that you will find that someone or something has a particular quality or does a particular thing原本料想;prefer:to like someone or something more than someone or something else, so that you would choose it if you could,更喜歡。
3.歸類辨析
詞的辨析還可以通過將詞從微觀歸類到某一宏觀范圍,如主觀、客觀,或者將其特性作一分析,如表示過程還是結果等方法加以辨析。如:下列兩組詞:
A B
look for find
look at see
listen to hear
A組詞強調動作,B組詞強調結果。
例一:Emergency line operators must always calm and make sure that they get all the information they need to send help.
A. grow B. appear
C. become D. stay
答案D。stay為連系動詞,有“保持”的意思,是個狀態(tài)詞;而grow,become也可以是連系動詞,但是個“變”態(tài)的動詞,表示“變得”。
例二:—— Ow! I’ve burnt myself!
—— How did you do that?
—— I ________ a hot pot.
A. touched B. kept
C. felt D. held
答案A。touch是動作動詞,強調“碰”,而feel是個過程動詞,強調“覺出”。
4. 形象聯想辨析
辨析詞是為了掌握詞的用法,方便記憶。因此,有的情況下,可以通過形象聯想,加深對詞的理解。如:
例一:I’m putting on weight. The doctor has warned me to _________ sugar.
A. keep up B. keep back
C. keep off D. keep away
答案C。keep off有“不接近、避免”等意思,在此題中是“不(吃、喝)”之意。keep off 的這個語義,我們還可以聯想中英文標示用語。“勿踏草坪”,就是用“Keep off the grass!”來表示的。
例二:The dictionary published by Oxford University Press recently has really ______ because it is of great use to the learners of English.
A. taken away
B. taken down
C. taken off
D. taken out
答案C。take off: (產品或觀念)大受歡迎、(產品銷售量)急升。這個詞也很容易讓我們聯想到飛機起飛的“take off”,從而記清詞義。
總之,動詞和動詞短語的識記和辨析,是學習英語難點,同時也是高考的流行考點,同學們在積累詞匯的時候,要用心學,用心悟,這樣,在遇到動詞相關的詞匯問題時,才會在處理上得心應手。
