题目内容
11.I don't like dogs.I'm always afraid of ______________.( )A. | to be bitten | B. | biting | C. | to bite | D. | being bitten |
分析 我不喜欢狗.我总是害怕被咬.
解答 答案:D.根据句义可以知道害怕被咬,又因为害怕做某事是be afraid of doing sth.,因此答案是D being bitten表示害怕被咬.其他选项不符合这个句式,A和C不用于of之后;B表示主动.
点评 考查动名词做宾语.
be afraid to do sth.真正的意思是"害怕做某事",也就是主语对做某事内心感到恐惧;be afraid of doing sth.表示主语内心里不情愿做某事,也可以说是不希望发生某事,但自己不一定能避免它.例如:
He was afraid to go out alone at night.(他害怕晚上独自外出.暗含的意思是"他对于晚上独自外出缺乏安全感".)
He came late to school and was afraid of being scolded by the teacher.(他上学迟到了,害怕被老师吵.暗含的意思是"他不情愿被老师吵".)
