2015年GCT英语备考辅导：词汇语法之介词法

　　•John looked very much embarrassed when he was caught cheating in the exam the spot.

　　•[A] on [B] by [C] at [D] in

　　•这是介词搭配题，四个选项均为介词，只有on 与the spot搭配表示“现场的”才符合题意。

　　•介词是英语里应用最活跃的词类之一，常与名词、动词和形容词搭配，实际上多数习惯用语都含有介词。请看下例：

　　•Although interior design has existed since the beginning of architecture, its development into a specialized field is really quite recent. Interior designers have become important partly because of the many functions that might be 1 in a single large building.

　　•The importance of interior design becomes evident when we realize how much time we 2 surrounded by four walls. Whenever we need to be indoors, we want our surroundings to be as attractive and comfortable as possible. We also expect 3 place to be appropriate to its use. You would be shocked if the inside of your bedroom were suddenly changed to look 4 the inside of a restaurant. And you wouldn’t feel 5 in a business office that has the appearance of a school.

　　It soon becomes clear that the interior designer’s most important basic 6 is the function of the particular space. For example, a theater with poor sight lines, poor sound-shaping qualities, and 7 few entries and exits will not work for its purpose, no matter ho w beautifully it might be 8 . Nevertheless, for any kind of space, the designer has to make many of the same kind of 9 . He or she must coordinate the shapes, lighting and decoration of everything from ceiling to floor. 10 addition, the designer must usually select furniture or design built-in furniture, according to the functions that need to be served.

　　10. [A] For [B] In [C] As [D] With

　　•答案：1-5：B A D A C 6-10：B A D C B

　　•从以上实例来看，做介词选项题时要特别注意，介词与前面的动词或后面的名词能否构成习惯用语或成语，如果能，所选项往往就属于正确答案的范围。当然，还需要从上下文来检验一下，符合语意就可以确定了。那么，哪些介词是考生复习时应该注意的呢?下面我们作了个统计。
