问题 Which of the following italicized words DOES NOT carry the metaphorical meaning? (2018-19)
选项 A、I wonder what’s behind his change of plan.
B、Jim turned to speak to the person standing behind him.
C、This work should have been finished yesterday. I’m getting terribly behind.
D、I suppose I’m lucky because my parents were behind me all the way.
答案 B
解析 介词。许多介词具有抽象意义，因而有比喻性用法(metaphorical use)。这些比喻性用法都是习惯用法，有固定的搭配。A项表示“我真不知道他改变计划的原因是什么。”C项表示“这项工作应该昨天完成的，我落后太多了。”D项表示“我想我是幸运的，因为父母始终支持着我。”只有B项中behind用作本意“在……的后面”，译为“吉姆转身对站在他身后的人说话”。故本题答案为B。
