高考英语词汇详解:serve与serve for
serve 还是 serve for
请看下面的题目:
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
【分析】 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。
其实,此题答案要选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:
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。
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。
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。
