[典型考题] These startling events _______ intense excitement throughout Europe. A. rose B. arose C. raised D. aroused
[试题分析] 本题是形近词辨析题
[详细解答] 典型考题答案是D。句意:这些惊人的事迹在整个欧洲引起了极大的骚动。arouse意为―激起、兴趣、引起、唤起‖,如arouse anxiety引起不安;arouse curiosity引起好奇
[词义辨析]rise vi. 升起,升高;arise vi.出现,发生;raise vt.抬起,举起某物
辨析rise,arise,raise,arouse这组词时,应当注意那些是及物动词那些是不及物动词,这是掌握这些词的关键。
其中rise和arise是不及物动词,后不能直接接宾语,如:The sun rises from the east.太阳从东边升起。New problems arised.新的问题出现了。raise和arose是及物动词,即后可直接接宾语,如raise eggs下蛋;raise a hand举起手;arouse suspicion引起怀疑。
[词形变换] arousal [ə'rauzəl] n. 激励,鼓励emotional/sexual aroused as for
1.sometimes derog(used hen starting to talk about a new subject, connected with what came before)when we speak of; concerning【有时贬】(用于连接前面所谈、转入新的 话题)至于、就……而论[而言]:You can have a bed; as for him, he‘ll have to sleep on the floor.
[词义辨析] as to均表示―就……而论‖―有关‖或―至于‖。
as to 的功能类似于 with regard to, regarding, on the matter of, concerning 等,常用于相当正式的语境中,尤其用于争论和做出决定时。可放于句首或与 wh- 疑问词引导的动词不定式和名词性从句连用(有时可省略),而 as for 无此种用法。例如:As to the journey,we must decide about that later.
as for 和 as to 都可用于句首,引出一个与前一个话题稍微有些不同的话题,但 as for 在语体上不如 as to 正式,并且着重话题的转换,也就是说,它所引导的是前面尚未提到过的新的事情,因此它不能用于文章的开头。另外, as for 有时表达轻蔑的语气。例如:We had a delightful weekend in the country. As for the traffic,we had no difficulty.
