2. he substituted for the injured player
解析:替换某人要用substitute for sb. ,尽管汉语中只说替换,翻译时要补上介词for,以符合英语的要求。替换还有displace,replace,swap,take the place of,instead of等说法。这些表达之间有微妙的差别,考生要注意区分。
substitute 代替;取代; 代替品
Nothing can substitute for the advice the doctor is able to give you.
substitute的用法是:substitute A for B,意为用A代替B;
replace 的用法是:replace A with B,意为用B代替A。
例句:
1. In manufacturing, cheaper materials are constantly being substituted for the better and more expensive kind.
2. The government decided to replace coal with gas.
练习
1. Nowadays plastic is often used to ______ for rubber.
2. The team ______ James with John in the match today.
3. Despite the fact that the old couple leads a very plain life
解析:Despite有尽管之意,看似连词,实际上却是介词。相当于in spite of,一般后接名词,如:Despite the bad weather we enjoyed our holiday.原句需填入部分是一个单句,因此要用despite the fact that...结构。让步状语从句还可以用although引导,即:Although the old couple leads a very plain life.
