动词用法与辨析
 
◆典型陷阱题分析◆
1. If you want to sell your product you must _____ it.
A. advertise                            B. advertise for
C. advertise on                        D. advertise to
【陷阱】容易误选B,认为 advertise 的意思是“做广告”,advertise for 的意思“为……做广告”。
【分析】事实上,正确答案为A。advertise 可用作及物和不及物动词:用作及物动词时,其意为“为……做广告”、“登广告宣传”;用作不及物动词时,其意为“做广告”、“登广告”,此时通常后接介词 for,表示“做广告征求”。比较:
advertise for sth (sb) 登广告征求或寻找某物或某人(此时 advertise 不及物)
advertise sth 为……登广告,登广告宣传……(此时 advertise 是及物动词,其后要直接跟被宣传的东西作宾语)
People advertise things that they wish to sell. 人们为要卖的东西登广告。
The manager wants to advertise for a new secretary. 经理想登广告招聘一位新秘书。
再比较以下用例:
advertise jobs 登广告招人
advertise for jobs 登广告求职
2. 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:
(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
