一、考點歸納
介詞在語法填空中每年必考。主要考點有:
1. 簡單介詞。如:after,as,like,behind,for,from,of,in,on,at,to,with,by,about,above,across,against,below,beside,between,beyond,during,opposite,past,despite,near等。
2. 復合介詞。如:throughout,outside,within,without,onto,into,upon等。
2. 短語搭配中的介詞。如at a price,on one’s own,on sale,at table,be tired from doing,show respect for,reward sb. for sth,in a low voice等。
此外,常用介詞構成的短語:
二、解法指導
介詞后一定要接賓語,作賓語的通常是名詞、代詞或動名詞。因此,做純空格的語法填空時,若空格后是名詞、代詞或動名詞,且他們不是在句中作主語、表語,也不是作動詞的賓語時,這個格空就很可能是填介詞。然后根據句子意思和具體語境來確定填哪一個介詞。
[例1](2013年廣東)The only reason a man would sell salt a lower price would be because he was desperate for money. And anyone who took advantage of that situation would be showing a lack of respect the sweat and struggle of the man who worked very hard to produce it.
解析:因名詞短語a lower price和the sweat and struggle在句中不作主語、表語或動詞的賓語,應是作介詞的賓語,空格處應填介詞;第一空,根據與price的搭配,填at,at a lower price表示“以更低的價格”;第二空,由show respect for可知,填for。
[例2](2012年廣東) The new boy looked at the teacher a few seconds and all the other students wondered what the boy would do.
解析:名詞短語a few seconds在句中不作主語、表語或動詞的賓語,應是作介詞的賓語,應填介詞;因表示某個動作持續的時間長度,用“for+時間段”,故填for。

答案與解析
單句填空
1. on因on one’s own(=alone)是固定搭配,所以填on。
2. with名詞a happy heart 在句中不作主語,也不作動詞的賓語,就應是作介詞的賓語,空格處應填介詞; 由句意可知,是指這個年輕人“帶著”愉快的心情回家,表示“帶著”用with。
3. on固定搭配on sale,表示“出售”。
4. at名詞(table)在句中不作主語,也不作動詞的賓語,很可能就是作介詞的賓語;由having supper可知,填at; 因為at table表示“在餐桌邊,在進餐”,也是習慣搭配。
5. In /Behind指“在這些成語的背后”或“在這些成語里”常常會有一些有趣的故事,表示“在……的背后”,用介詞behind,表示“在……里”,用in。
