2019年英语四级词汇模拟题（2）

1)在不同的形容词后有时常用不同的介词。

【例1】I am two years senior him.

A)to B)than C)at D)for

【分析】形容词senior，junior(比……年长，比……年轻)后只接to，不接than。类似的短语还有：be superior to，be inferior to。所以答案为A项。

【例2】Your arguments are foreign this question.

A) at B)on C)to D)in

【分析】形容词foreign意指“无关的”，它的搭配是be foreign to sth. 故该题的答案是C项。另如：be loyal to，be fond of等。

2)在不同的名词后也常用特定的介词。

【例3】In addition，many exceptions the rules of English usage make it difficult to master.

A)of B)off C)to D)on

【分析】本题应选C项。英语中有些名词要求接介词to，构成固定搭配。另如：key to Test One，the solution/introduction/approach to，the obstacle to the progress等。

3)一些介词或短语介词在汉语意思上具有同义或近义时，我们解题时应加以区别。

【例4】The stage was bare a piano, a bench, and one empty chair.

A)in addition to B)only for

C)except for D)apart from

【分析】in addition to，except for，apart from均具有“除……之外，还有……”意思，但其中in addition to和apart from具有肯定意义，而except for则具有否定意义，强调整体和局部的关系，表示在主要部分加以肯定后，仍有部分否定。根据题意应选C项。

4)在不同的动词后常常跟一特定的介词。

【例5】The noise of the plane died in the distance.

A)away B)out C)down D)off

【分析】die away(声音、风、光)渐渐消失;die out(家族、民族、风俗、思想)渐渐消灭;die down(火、激动、情绪)减弱;die off相续死亡。根据题意，应选A项。

【例6】Don’t this news to the public until we give you the go-ahead.

A)release B)relieve C)relate D)retain

【分析】答案为A项。这四个词为近形词。

【例7】The English language contains a(an) of words which are comparatively seldom used in ordinary conversation.

A)altitude B)latitude C)multitude D)attitude

【分析】本题所给选项均以-titude结尾，很容易混淆，根据字首multi-(多、大量的)，便可选答案C项，a multitude of words即为“大量的词汇”。

【例8】American women were the right to vote until 1920 after many years of hard struggle.

A)ignored B)neglected C)refused D)denied

【分析】答案为D项。这四个词为近义词。

A)preferable B)considerable

C)possible D)available
