2012 届新课标高三第二轮专题讲解 介词英语中称为“preposition”是由“前缀 pre-（在……前部）+position（位置）”构成 的，所以又叫前置词。一般放在名词、代词或动名词的前面。介词是虚词，主要用来表示人、 物、事件等与其他人、物、事件之间的关系,如空间位置、时间先后、因果关系、方式方法 等。介词与其宾语构成介词短语。可作介词宾语的主要有名词、代词、动 名词（或动名词 短语）、名词性从句等。 分类 特点 例词 简单介词 即一个介词 about, across, after, against, among, around, at, below, beyond, during, in, on 等等。 合成介词 由两个介词构成合成 词 into, onto, throughout, upon, within 短语介词 由短语构成 according to, because of, instead of, up to, due to, owing to, thanks to 等等。 双重介词 由两个介词搭配而成 from among, from behind, from under, till after, in between 等等。 分词介词 由现在分词转化而来 considering( 就 …… 而论), including ， regarding ， concerning 等。 兼类介词 由形容词直接转化而 来 like, unlike, near, next, opposite 等等。 介词不能独立在句中做成份，介词后必须与名词、代词、或动名词构成介词短语在句中 充当一个成分， 表示人、物、事件等与其它人、物、事件等之间的关系。 介词短语的功 例 句 能 作定语 They didn’t find the solution to the problem. 作状语 We have breakfast at seven.（表时间） They were late for the meeting because of the heavy rain.（表原因） What do you mean by doing such a thing?（表方法） Nothing in the world could live without air or water.（表条件） 作表语 When I paid a visit to you yesterday, you were not at home. 作宾语补足语 I found the old building in a bad condition. 介词是英语中最活跃的词类之一，使用频率相当高，其用法跟冠词一样复杂。但根据近 年来高考命题的情况来看，考生需要掌握以下内容。 1.表示相同或相似概念的介词（短语）的区别 表示的概 念 介词（短语） 区 别 例 子 时间[来源:Z,xx,k.Com] in on at at 在一个时间点上；[来源:学科网 ZXXK][来源:Z§ xx§k.Com] in 在一段的时间之内； on 在具体日子。[来源:学科网] ①at 8 o’clock, at noon ②in the 1990s, in January ③on Monday, on a warm morning[来源:学科 网] since from since 指从过去到现在的 一段时间，和完成时连用； from 指从时间的某一点开 始。 ①We have not seen each other since 1995. ②I hope to do morning exercises from today. in, after in 指在一段时间之后，也 可 以 指 一 段 时 间 之 内 =within； after 表示某一具体时间点 之后或用在过去时的一段 时间中。 ①We’ll be back in three days. ②After seven the rain began to fall. ③ What shall we do after graduation?
