本句意思为:“设了一个陷阱来抓小偷。”“设圈套”的一般表达“set a trap”,是一个习惯搭配。
例:1994年1月四级第62题:

a. towards b. for c. with d. to
本句涉及固定词组 contribute to, 意为“有助于”“促成”,填入空格中,题句语义连贯。
例:1999年6月四级第51题

A) for B) toward C) on D) with
本题考查词组的搭配,be disappointed with 意思是“对……失望”,大部分考生对此词组都很熟悉。
例:1999年月四级第50题
Being a pop star can be quite a hard life,________with a lot of travelling heavy schedules.
A) as to B) in relation to C) owing to D) with regard to
选项C) owing to 的意思是“由于”。符合题意“由于时间很紧……”。选项A) as to 意思是“至于,关于”。选项B) in relation to 意思是“关于,涉及,与……相比”。 而选项D) with regard to 意思是“关于”。 A)、B) 、D)三个选项在意思上都不符合题意。 例:1995年6月四级第48题
While people may refer to television for up-to-the-minute news, it is unlikely that television________the newspaper completely.
A) replaced B) have replaced C) replace D) will replace
本句的意思是“虽然人们可以从电视了解最新消息,但电视不大可能完全取代报纸”。句中unlikely表示说话人认为某事将来不大可能发生,或者认为不大可能成为事实,因此应当用陈述语气将来时。选项A) replaced 为一般过去时,从全句意思来看,显然不合适。应予以排除。选项B)have replace 违反了主谓语一致的原则,应予以排除。选项C) replace与单数主语television在数上不一致,也违反了主谓语一致原则,应予以排除。因此,本题答案为D) will replace。
再如:
Alone in a deserted house,he was so busy with his research work that he felt________lonely.
A) nothing but B) anything but C) all but D) everything but
nothing but(除……只有),all but(几乎),everything but不是惯用短语,若填入,意思就成了“除了孤独外,什么都感到了”。这样,在逻辑上就不通了。因此A,C,D均与文意不符,故排除。只有anything but(除……以外任何事;根本不……)符合文意,所以答案是B。
例:1990年1月四级第57题
The manager promised to keep me________of how out business was going on.
A) to be informed B) on informing C) informed D) informing
全句意思是:“经理答应让我不断了解我们的业务进展情况”。“keep+名词+分词”表示“让……(保持)”。由于inform 是及物动词,me是它的动作对象,所以要用过去分词informed。答案是选项C) informed。keep on是一个短语动词,表示“继续做”,keep和on之间不能插入宾语,所以选项B) on informing不对。我们可以说keep on doing sth.,但不能说keep sb. on doing sth.。如果keep后面用现在分词,则keep的宾语是分词动作的主题,这与本题不符,所以D) 选项也不正确。
Because of the poor harvest, wheat prices have _____ in the last six months.
A. added B. jumped C. amounted D. developed
答案B. jumped.
注释 jump (=rise suddenly in price) 指“(价格)暴涨”。

Tell your brother to come _____, because it's going to rain in a minute or two.
A. indoors B. outdoors C. outward D. inwards
[答案] A. indoors

本文译文: 叫你兄弟进屋来,因为天马上要下雨了.
246. enter on / upon (=begin) 开始 (一个时代. 一种生涯. 一段任期等)
247. be entitled to (=be given the right to do sth.)有权…,有资格…
