动词用法与辨析 ◆典型陷阱题分析◆ 1. If you want to sell your product you must _____ it. A. advertise B. advertise for C. advertise on D. advertise to 【陷阱】容易误选 B,认为 advertise 的意思是“做广告”,advertise for 的意思“为……做广告”。 【分析】事实上,正确答案为 A.advertise 可用作及物和不及物动词:用作及物动词时,其意为“为……做广告”、“登广告宣传”;用作不及物动词时,其意为“做广告”、“登广告”,此时通常后接介词 for,表示“做广告征求”。比较: advertise for sth (sb) 登广告征求或寻找某物或某人 (此时 advertise 不及物) advertise sth 为……登广告,登广告宣传……(此时 advertise 是及物动词,其后要直接跟被宣传的东西作宾语) People advertise things that they wish to sell. 人们为要卖的东西登广告。 The manager wants to advertise for a new secretary. 经理想登广告招聘一位新秘书。 再比较以下用例: advertise jobs 登广告招人 advertise for jobs 登广告求职 2.
