选择题
Because he has been out of _____ work for months, the young man now depends on his parents for _____ living.
A.不填; a
B.the; a
C.不填; 不填
D.the; 不填
答案
答案:A
题目分析:out of work失业;living作名词解时,是“生活,生计”的意思,指的是一种谋生的具体方式或手段,是可数名词,常与冠词a连用。 故选A。
点评:本题难度适中。冠词是高中学生必须掌握的知识点,虽然在初中就提到冠词,由于冠词的用法太多,做题时必须根据不同的语境来确定用哪一个冠词。冠词在固定短语中的考查也是近几年的热点。
即学即练:George couldn’t remember when he first met Mr. Anderson, but he was sure it was Sunday because
everybody was at church.
A./; the B. the; / C. a; / D./; a
解析:C。不定冠词用于表示星期的名词前,泛指“某个星期几”;at church表示“做礼拜”,
at the church表示“在教堂”。故本题选C
