此类考题暗藏玄关,一旦发现玄关所在,则不费吹灰之力,即可得分;但若未发现玄关,即使绞尽脑汁,也无从下手。其命题意图就是考查考生对某些“动词+名词(+介词)”这一固定或习惯搭配的掌握情况。考生若能发现该搭配,便能轻松作答。但有时命题者往往有意将该搭配拆散、挪位,致使考生一时难以发现其奥秘所在,以增加试题难度。因此,我们要设法将错位的“部件”复位,让“破镜”“重圆”,重现一个完整的词组或短语结构,这正好能充分展现考生对英语语言素材的积累情况和运用能力。
通过观察,我们发现,例①考查的是find fault with…(挑剔,找岔子)这一结构, 答案C;例②考查的是make the most of … to do sth.这一搭配,意为“充分利用…来做某事”,答案A;例③考查的是keep sb. company 这一结构,意为“给某人作伴”,所以答案B;例④考查的是place an order这一搭配,意为“下定单”,答案A;例⑤考查的是make one’s point这一词组结构,意为“阐明某人的观点”,只是命题者将这一结构中的point提前作先行词,让考生在定语从句中寻找这一搭配,答案C;例⑥考查的是take…for example 这一短语, 命题者将其顺序打乱,正常语序为“take the neatly-dressed woman I used to see – or look at – on my way to work each morning for example”, 所以答案为B。
