Bhutan is one of the most isolated nations in the world, 30 foreign influences and tourism regulated by the government to preserve its traditional Tibetan Buddhist culture.
答案:(B) with
【句型】with + 受詞 + 過去分詞,with foreign influences and tourism regulated 表示「外國影響力與觀光業受到政府管制」這個伴隨狀況。by/for/in 都無法構成這種「with + 受詞 + 分詞」的獨立結構。
with 這個字,你的印象大概只有「和……一起」與「用……」,看到它後面接著一長串 foreign influences and tourism regulated by the government,會覺得沒有一個介系詞放得進去。
答對率不到五成,鑑別度只有 28,是本批最低的一題。這一題難,卻連高分群考生也常失手,原因在於這個句型擺在句子最後面、後面又跟著一長串修飾語,形狀不容易認出來。先把空格後面拆成兩層:foreign influences and tourism 是受詞,regulated by the government 是補充說明這個受詞處於什麼狀態,還原成完整子句就是 foreign influences and tourism are regulated by the government(外國影響力與觀光業受到政府管制)。能還原成「受詞是或處於那個狀態」,就確定是 with + 受詞 + 受詞補語(表附帶狀態)這個課本長教的句型,空格填 with。同一年第 11 題也考 with,但那一題考的是 be satisfied with 這個固定的字詞搭配,兩題擺在一起,正好看出同一個介系詞的兩種考法。
by、for、in 後面都只能接名詞或名詞組,接不了「受詞加補語」這兩層;把它們填進去,regulated by the government 那一串就沒有地方可以掛。
with + 受詞 + 受詞補語(表附帶狀態)、with his eyes closed(閉著眼睛)、with the engine running(引擎還發動著)、be regulated by(受……管制)、preserve a culture(保存文化)、isolated(孤立的、與外界隔絕的)。
