Пояснение
Разбор.
В данном задании проверяется знание устойчивых словосочетаний (collocations). Пропуск находится в предложении: «She was glad they had asked her to 30 ______ Mary King’s company because she really liked her».
Для выбора правильного глагола необходимо проанализировать существительное, которое стоит после пропуска — company (в значении «общество», «состав», «присутствие»). В английском языке существует устойчивое выражение to keep someone company, которое означает «составить кому-либо компанию» или «проводить время с кем-либо, чтобы человеку не было скучно».
Рассмотрим, почему другие варианты не подходят:
- hold — глагол to hold company не употребляется в значении «составлять компанию»; он может использоваться в контексте владения акциями компании (бизнес-контекст), что не подходит по смыслу.
- fix — глагол to fix (чинить, устанавливать) не образует устойчивых связей со словом company в данном контексте.
- bring — глагол to bring (приносить, приводить) не используется в идиоме «составить компанию». Можно сказать bring a company в значении «привести группу людей», но это полностью меняет смысл предложения.
Таким образом, только глагол keep грамматически и лексически сочетается с дополнением Mary King’s company, передавая намерение героини скрасить досуг гостьи.
