什么是短语动词?为什么对SPM重要?
短语动词(phrasal verb)是动词与介词或副词组合后产生新含义的词组。例如,“give up”不是”向上给”的意思——而是”放弃”。

如何有效学习短语动词
1. 在语境中学习
不要死记”bring up = 提及”。而是学习完整的句子,大脑记住故事比记住定义更容易。
2. 按基础动词分组
把使用相同基础动词的短语动词放在一起学:
- Take up, take after, take over, take into account
- Look up, look after, look into, look up to, look forward to
3. 在作文中使用
挑战自己在每篇作文中自然使用3-5个短语动词。这向考官展示你的词汇广度,直接影响分数。
4. 阅读时注意它们
每次阅读英文文章时,标注短语动词,观察它们在真实句子中的用法。
SPM完形填空常见陷阱
“She has to look _____ her younger brother every afternoon.”
- A. at B. for C. after D. up
答案是C(after),因为”look after”表示照顾。不了解短语动词的学生常常猜”at”,因为”look at”看起来更合理。
