1. Did your speech ____ to the audience?
A.get through to B.get across to
❤答案为B。请问为什么不能选A，我查了一下字典也有使理解的意思啊？
答：学习短语动词，都查词典是个好习惯，不过词典要大一点，至少应有例句。不要用那种袖珍的，只有干巴巴的几个中文释义。一定要通过例句去学习这些词组（短语动词）的用法。
学习英语，不仅要靠记性，同样也需要悟性。否则，这样的问题，就只能用一个“习惯用法”来回答了。
其实不然。
首先肯定B是正确的：
get across
(1) 过 <桥、街道等> ,渡过; 越过 <国境等>
(2)((英口语))惹怒<人>,使…苦恼
(3) 渡[到…],横过[到…][to]
(4) <论点、意思等> 传 [到对方] , [被对方] 瞭解; <人>使想法等传 [到对方] ,使…瞭解[to]
The words didn't ~ across to her.
那些话未为她所瞭解
(5)<戏剧等>投 [观众等] 所好,博得好评,风行,成功[to]
The singer's new song has failed to ~ across.
这歌手的新歌没能博得好评 [没能唱红]
(6) 使<人等>渡过…,将<物>运过…
~ an army across a river
使军队渡河
(7) 使…渡过,将…运过去
(8) 使[对方]瞭解 <论点、笑话等> [to]
He couldn't ~ it across to her.
他没能使她瞭解这件事
(9) 使<戏剧等>被 [观众等] 接收,使…搏得好评,使…受欢迎,使…成功[to]
They could not ~ the play across.
他们无法使那出戏卖座

再看get through的用法：
1. get through sth
(a) use up or consume (the specified quantity or amount of sth) 用完, 消耗掉（一定量的某物）
She gets through forty cigarettes a day. 她一天抽四十枝香烟.
We got through a fortune while we were on holiday! 我们度假花了一大笔钱!
(b) (manage to) do or complete sth （设法）做或完成某事

Let's start; there's a lot of work to get through/to be got through. 开始吧, 有大批工作要做呢.

2. get (sb) `through (sth)：
(help sb to) be successful in or pass (an examination, a test, etc) （帮助某人）（考试、 测验等）及格

(cause sth to) be officially approved or accepted （使某事物）正式通过或被采纳

3. get `through (to sb)
(a) reach (sb) 到达（某人处）

(b) make contact (with sb), esp by telephone （与某人）联系（尤指通电话）

4. get `through to sb
make sb understand the meaning of what one is saying; communicate with sb 所说的话使某人理解; 与某人沟通
I find her impossible to get through to. 我发觉无法跟她沟通思想.
Try to get through to him that he's wasting his life in that job. 设法让他明白做那种工作是浪费生命.

5. get through with sth：
finish or complete (a job, task, etc) 完成（工作、 任务等）
As soon as I get through with my work I'll join you. 我工作一做完就来找你们.
从：get across之：
(4) <论点、意思等> 传 [到对方] , [被对方] 瞭解; <人>使想法等传 [到对方] ,使…瞭解[to]
The words didn't ~ across to her.
那些话未为她所瞭解
和get through之：
4. get `through to sb
make sb understand the meaning of what one is saying; communicate with sb 所说的话使某人理解; 与某人沟通
I find her impossible to get through to. 我发觉无法跟她沟通思想.
Try to get through to him that he's wasting his life in that job. 设法让他明白做那种工作是浪费生命.
可以看出其主语的不同。前者多为：论点、意思等，后者的主语应该是“人”，因为只有“人”才能make sb. understand sth.才能communicate with sb.

所以这里只能用get across to ...

Answer 2

get across to 意思是指通过语言使某人了解，get through to 意思是指得到，使理解，进入。
两者的侧重点不同，英语选择题中是选择最佳答案，虽然有些词看起来也行，不过不是最佳的，所以不能选。over.

Answer 3

get across to是通过言语使人明白的道理之类的，指通过语言使某人了解
get through to 意思是指得到，使理解，进入
两者的侧重点不同，英语选择题中是选择最佳答案，虽然有些词看起来也行，不过不是最佳的，所以不能选。

Answer 4

get through 是 通过 ； 完成 ；接通的意思 没有 理解的 意思吧 就算有的话 这也没办法解释 英语是一门语言 不可能严谨到 一个单词都要仔细推敲 有的题 没办法用语法解释 你记住就行了

Answer 5

是因为搭配问题吧，get through后面不跟to,直接说get through by the audience吧
