【问】 He____a wound.

A. died of B. died in

C. died from D. died(《英语高考精典》，人民日报出版社，P.224)书上给的答案为C(died from)，不知能否用A(died of)?

【答】 LDCE上的原句是：He died from a wound.但这并不等于说He died of a wound.就是错误的。实际上，die of a wound(wounds)也是符合英语惯用法的。例如：

1. He died of his wounds. (McArthur)

他受伤而死。

2. He died of wounds. (J. B. Heaton，Prepositions and Adverbial Particles)

他受伤而死。
