While entering a strange yard in that village, you have to defend yourself _____ the guard dog.
A. about
B. with
C. from
D. against
题目解答
答案
D. against
解析
本题考查介词的固定搭配,核心在于掌握动词短语defend oneself的正确用法。关键点在于理解defend oneself against表示“防御/保护自己不受...的侵害”,而其他选项不符合固定搭配逻辑。
选项分析
A. about
Defend about无此搭配,about通常用于表达情感或话题(如talk about),与“防御”无关。
B. with
Defend with表示“用某种工具防御”,但句中强调“防御对象”(即“保护自己不受狗的攻击”),需用against。
C. from
Defend from虽有“保护...免受”的含义,但常见搭配为protect...from,而defend oneself固定搭配为against。
D. against
正确答案。Defend oneself against是固定搭配,表示“主动防御某人或某物的攻击”。
