——Let's go home. ——OK. I'm getting tired ____ shopping.

A. with B. at C. about D. of

《新高考英语必考语法精析》(商务印书馆国际有限公司, p.73) 给的答案是 D。我觉得应当选 A。您说呢?

词典解答

be tired with 表示“因……而疲劳”,因而选 A 更符合语境。请设想有两个人在商店里购物,甲对乙说:“回家吧。”乙同意说:“好吧。购物已使我很疲倦了。”我们很难想象乙会回答说:“我对购物感到厌倦了。”难道说他以后不再购物了!

但在下述语境里,却只能用 tired of,而不能用 tired with:

  1. Let's play checkers, David.” “No, I'd rather not. I'm ____ that game. A. tired about B. tired with C. tired of D. fed up “让我们玩跳棋吧。”“不,我不愿玩了。我对这种游戏感到厌倦了。”

  2. I'm tired of so much reading. 要阅读这么多东西,我真有点烦。

练习题

  1. The girl was tired ____ having the same food every day. A. of B. from C. with D. in
