be late后是搭配介詞for還是with?請看下面這一道題:
“You went late _______ the stadium yesterday evening, didn’t you?” “Yes, my wife was a little late _______ the supper.”
A. to, with B. for, with
C. for, for D. at, for
【陷阱】容易誤選 B 或D。
【分析】答案應選 A。第一空填to 比較好理解,因為此處的late為副詞,用以修飾 go to the stadium 中的動詞go;而第二句的 with 則是許多同學不容易想到的,相反,更多地可能是想到 for,現將兩者區(qū)別如下:be late for表示做某事遲到,而be late with 表示做某事做晚了(=be late in doing sth)。比較:
We were late for dinner. 我們吃飯遲到了。
We were late with dinner [=in having dinner]. 我們吃飯吃得遲。
句中 my wife was a little late with the supper 的意思是“我妻子準備晚飯稍遲了一點”。
