问题描述
介词填空:
She rose above the difficultly ______ being deaf to become an excellent teacher.
答案是填 of,但为什么不填 in 呢?have difficultly in doing sth 不是一个常用的句型吗?
老师答疑
刘老师:
She rose above the difficulty of being deaf to become an excellent teacher.
1. rise above 的本义是“上升到…之上”,引申为“超越”,“克服”。本句的rose above 即是引申义“克服”。
2. the difficulty of being deaf :“耳聋的困难”。
of 的主要用法,是表示“所属关系”。此外,它还可以表示“同位关系”或者“解释关系”,the difficulty of being deaf 便是这种关系:the difficulty = being deaf。一个人如果耳朵聋了,那么对他来说就是一种困难。
表示同位关系时,of 前的这个名词往往特指,需加定冠词the。又如:
the difficulty of water shortage 缺水困难
the difficulty of parking in big cities 大城市的停车困难
the difficulty of being deaf 耳聋的困难
但 have difficulty in doing 则没有冠词 the。
3. to become an excellent teacher 是结果状语。
4. 翻译:她克服了耳聋的困难,终于成为一名优秀的教师。
5. have difficulty in doing sth. 这里的介词in 表示“方面”,意为“在做某事方面有困难”。这时的 difficulty 是不可数名词,不需要特指。显而易见,根据上句的内容要求,不可用 in 代替 of。
