三 确定恰当的介词、冠词
(一)若空后的名词或代词在句中不作主语、表语或动词的宾语时,设空处一定填介词。
[例1] (2023·全国乙卷)From temples to museums,narrow hutong__________royal palaces,it is home to more than 3,000 years of glorious history even down to its layout ...
[思维路径] 依据上文的“From temples to museums”可知,narrow前省略了介词from,from...to...表示“从……到……”。故填to。
[例2] (2022·全国甲卷)He flew 4,700 kilometers__________Xi'an to Kashgar on Sept.20, planning to hike back to Xi'an in five months.
[思维路径] 空白后的名词在句中不作主语、表语或动词的宾语,则空白处一定填介词。依据后面的to 可知,考查固定搭配from ... to ...。故填from。
[例3] (2021·全国乙卷)It was not widely accepted as a travel concept__________the late 1980s.
[思维路径] 本句为固定句型“not ... until...”。故填until。
(二)若空前是动词、名词或形容词,设空处很可能填介词,这时需要考虑动介、名介或形介搭配。
[例1] (2023·新高考Ⅱ卷)And who do they speak English_________?
[思维路径] 本句含有短语speak with/to sb.(和某人交谈),故填with/to。
[例2] (2023·全国甲卷)She warns of the environmental dangers facing society, and she teaches that people must take responsibility__________saving their environment.
[思维路径] 考查短语take responsibility for(对……负责),故填介词for。
[例3] (2023·唐山市模拟)Nüshu was used by women who lacked access____________education in reading and writing.
[思维路径] 考查短语access to,意为“接触……”,故填介词to。
[例4] (2023·湖北省四市联考)I got familiar__________the place — the local shops, clubs, and parks.
[思维路径] 考查短语get familiar with,意为“熟悉……”,故填介词with。
(三)若空后是名词,且该名词前又不能填入冠词、物主代词或限定词,设空处很可能填介词。
[例1] (2023·新高考Ⅰ卷)There, you'll find them prepared differently—more dumpling and less soup—and the wrappers are pressed___________hand rather than rolled.
[思维路径] by hand(用手)是固定搭配,故填by。
[例2] (2022·浙江卷)Luc Gandarias, who's now thirteen, went blind suddenly____________age seven.
[思维路径] 表示在多大年龄时,用介词at。
[例3] (2023·安徽省“江南十校”联考)It is about 6,000 meters__________height, and has the shape of a perfect pyramid.
[思维路径] 表示“在……方面”,应用介词in。
(四)若空后的名词前面没有限定词修饰,设空处很可能填冠词。
[例1] (2023·新高考Ⅰ卷)The meat should be fresh with_________touch of sweetness,__and the surrounding soup hot, clear and delicious.
[思维路径] a touch of为固定短语,意为 “一点点;稍许”。故填a。
