请看下面的一道题，是考查one…the other还是考查one…another? Her lecture was hard to follow because she kept jumping from one subject to _________. http://yingyu.chazidian.com A. other B. the other C. the others D. another 【分析】此题容易死套搭配 one … the other…而误选B，其实最佳答案为D。使用one…the other … 时，我们通常是针对两者而言的，即指“两者中的一个……，另一个……”；如果所谈论的情况不是针对两者而言的，而是针对多者而言的，那么我们就不宜在 one 后使用 the other，而考虑用 another。又如(答案均选D，即选 another)： (1) Those cakes are wonderful. Could I have _________ one? A. other B. the other C. the others D. another (2) I have many such novels. I’ll bring _________ tomorrow. A. other B. the other C. the others D. another (3) Saying is one thing and doing is _________. A. other B. the other C. the others D. another 比较以下各例： (1) Shut _________ eye, Jim. A. another B. some other C. other D. the other 答案选D，因为人的眼睛只有两只，故用 one…the other 结构。 (2) It’s sometimes hard to tell one twin from _________. A. another B. some other C. other D. the other 答案选D，twin 意为“孪生子之一”、“双胞胎之一”，即指两者之一，故用 one…the other 这一结构。
