They must be athletes who are masters in their sports and also set good examples for others.
句子来自2019版人教版高中英语新教材必修一的 Unit 3(p38)。
请问句中的 for 可改为 to 吗?若可以,有区别吗?
They must be athletes who are masters in their sports and also set good examples for others.
请问句中的 for 可改为 to 吗?若可以,有区别吗?
【答】表示“榜样;楷模”的意思并且与动词set 或者系动词be连用时,example(s)后面可以接介词 for 或者 to。有些人(包括测试命题者)认为接介词 for 是错误的。所以,在考试中使用to是最保险的选择。(在美式英语词典中可以找到example(s)后面接介词 for 的例句;在英式英语词典中通常只有后面接介词 to 的例句)
以下都是正确的例句:
You must set a good example to the children. 你必须为孩子们树立良好的榜样。(摘自《牛津英语搭配词典第2版》)
His generosity is an example to us all. 他的慷慨大度是我们所有人的榜样。(同上)
He set a good / bad example for the rest of us. 他为我们树立了一个好/坏榜样。(摘自《韦氏高阶英汉双解词典》)
set an example (英文解释树立榜样;以身作则 If you set an example, you encourage or inspire people by your behavior to behave or act in a similar way.)
给某人树立榜样 set an example to +名词
An officer's job was to set an example to others 军官的职责就是给别人树立榜样。
He sets an example to the other students.他为其他同学树立了榜样。
