非謂語動詞devote錯(cuò)題解析
devote vt.奉獻(xiàn); (給),把…專用(于) 把…奉獻(xiàn);
過去式:devoted 現(xiàn)在分詞:devoting 過去分詞:devoted 第三人稱單數(shù):devotes
[例句]I would devote my myself to the public.
我會把自己奉獻(xiàn)給公眾.
錯(cuò)題分析:
All her time _______ experiments, she has no time for sports.
A. devoted to do B. devoted to doing
C. devoting to doing D. is devoted to doing
【賞析】此題最佳答案為B?,F(xiàn)分析如下:
(1) devote 意為“致力于,獻(xiàn)身于”,主要用于 devote…to…或be devoted to,其中的to 是介詞,不是不定式符號,故后接動詞時(shí)要用動名詞,不用不定式。
(2) 選A錯(cuò)誤:若將 do 改為 doing 則可以。
(3) 選B正確:all her time devoted to doing experiments為獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu),用作狀語。
(4) 選C錯(cuò)誤:因?yàn)閍ll her time 與 devote 為被動關(guān)系,故應(yīng)將devoting改為devoted。
(5) 選D錯(cuò)誤:若單獨(dú)看 All her time is devoted to doing experiments,此句并沒有錯(cuò),但問題是逗號前后兩個(gè)簡單句沒有必要的連接方式,所以從整體上看仍不對,假若在后一句的句首加上and或so,則可選D,或?qū)中的is 改為 being也可以。
關(guān)于devote的用法:
devote to把...獻(xiàn)給;
devote oneself to (doing) sth.
致力于,獻(xiàn)身于
句型:devote one's time/life/energy to (doing) sth
