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,设空处一定是填介词。
[例1] (2023·全国乙卷)From Buddhist 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] 根据空前的From Buddhist temples to museums可知,句中的narrow前面省略了介词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] 根据后面的to 可知,此处考查固定搭配from ...to ...,表示“从……到……”。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] 此处为固定句型“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] 本句的意思是“他们和谁说英语呢?”,含有短语speak to/with sb.(与某人交谈),故填to/with。
[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·唐山市模拟演练)Nüshu was used by women who lacked access ________education in reading and writing.
[思维路径] 考查固定搭配。access表示“机会”,需要与介词to连用。故填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with。
(三)若空后是名词,且该名词前又不能用冠词、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意为“用手工”,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。故填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”。故填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 “微量;稍许”。故填a。
[例2] (2023·新高考Ⅱ卷)Not the pandas, even though __
