fit与fit for

1. He is well ____ his job.

A. fit B. fitted C. fit for D. fitted for

参考答案:D

2. The new dress ____ me.

A. isn’t fit for B. doesn’t fit C. doesn’t fit for D. not fit

参考答案:B

句1是系表结构。“他适合此工作”可译为(1)He is fit for the job. (2)He is fit to do the job.

句(1)说明“他(现在处于)胜任此项工作(的状态)”;句(2)用不定式说明“他(将会处于)胜任此项工作(的状态)”。fit在句中皆作表语,用“这项工作”作为主语,可改写为(3)This job is fit for him (to do).这项工作对他是合适的。

fitted是过去分词,也可以用作形容词替代fit作表语,如句(1)可改写为:

(4)He is fitted for the job.而句1选D不选C是因为题干中有一个副词well。这个well不宜用来作程度状语修饰形容词fit。试比较:

(5)He is well fitted for his job.

(6)He is very/quite fit for his job.

对于句2,句中fit不是形容词而是动词,其含义为be the right size or shape for……(尺码)适合于……,如:

(7)This lid fits badly.这个盖子根本盖不上。句2讲的是“这件新衣服(的尺码)我穿不合身”就只能选B作谓语动词。
