发布时间:2016-07-20

目前,2016AEAS考试报名受到的关注越来越高,AEAS录取竞争越来越激烈。这里应广大学子的要求,为大家提供AEAS模拟真题提升技巧,这次AEAS考试网介绍的是another还是the other。

请看下面AEAS考试网的一道题,是考查one…the other还是考查one…another?

Her lecture was hard to follow because she kept jumping from one subject to _________.

A. other

B. the other

C. the others

D. another

【分析】此题容易死套搭配 one … the other…而误选B,其实最佳答案为D。使用one…the other … 时,我们通常是针对两者而言的,即指“两者中的一个……,另一个……”;如果所谈论的情况不是针对两者而言的,而是针对多者而言的,那么我们就不宜在 one 后使用 the other,而考虑用 another。又如(答案均选D,即选 another):

(1) Those cakes are wonderful. Could I have _________ one

A. other

B. the other

C. the others

D. another

(2) I have many such novels. I’ll bring _________ tomorrow.

A. other

B. the other

C. the others

D. another

(3) Saying is one thing and doing is _________.

B. the other

C. the others

D. another

AEAS考试模拟真题中比较以下各例:

(1) Shut _________ eye, Jim.

A. another

B. some other

C. other

D. the other

答案选D,因为人的眼睛只有两只,故用 one…the other 结构。

(2) It’s sometimes hard to tell one twin from _________.

A. another

B. some other

C. other

D. the other

答案选D,twin 意为“孪生子之一”、“双胞胎之一”,即指两者之一,故用 one…the other 这一结构。
