He made up his mind to devote his life _____ pollution ______happily.
A.to prevent; to liveB.to prevent; from living
C.to preventing; to live D.to preventing; from living
C

試題分析:考察固定搭配和不定式用法。本句中含有固定搭配devote…to…致力于,把…花在…之上;其中的to是介詞,后面要接動名詞的形式。第二空考察的是不定式在句中作目的狀語。句意:為了生活的幸福,他下定決心要把他的一生都用在預(yù)防污染上。故C正確。
點評:任何一種語言都有大量的固定搭配詞組,英語也不例外。那些約定俗成的詞組我們必須對其高度重視,認(rèn)真對待。實質(zhì)上,這類題屬于記憶性的考查,因為固定的搭配必定產(chǎn)生固定的意思,一旦記住了它的搭配和意思,解題就不會困難。在平時的學(xué)習(xí)中,對于固定用法的積累是非常必要的,在考試中遇到類似題目,拿過來直接用就可以。多閱讀文章,從中學(xué)習(xí)有用的固定用法。不定式做狀語是不定式的常規(guī)用法。
