一. 名詞寫作中,學(xué)生們常把握不好名詞的數(shù)、所有格以及一些集合名詞的用法。1. He gave me a very good advice yesterday.句中的a要去掉,因?yàn)閍dvice是不可數(shù)名詞。一些漢語概念為可數(shù)的詞在英語中卻是不可數(shù)的,表示數(shù)量時(shí)在其前加a piece of,類似的詞有:news, bread, work, paper, chalk, furniture, information等等。2. That girl loves reading book.可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)不能孤零零地放在句子里,或前面加冠詞,或?qū)⑵渥優(yōu)閺?fù)數(shù)。此處最好變?yōu)閎ooks.3. He went into a book’s shop and bought a dictionary.一般表示有生命的東西的名詞的所有格用’s,如my mother’s car, 而此處適宜用名詞修飾名詞,改為a book shop.4. My family is watching TV.一些集合名詞如看成一個(gè)整體,則用單數(shù)的謂語動(dòng)詞,如My family is a happy one。 如強(qiáng)調(diào)集合中每個(gè)個(gè)體的個(gè)人行為,則用復(fù)數(shù)的謂語動(dòng)詞。此處看電視是個(gè)體行為,應(yīng)把is改為are。類似的詞有:team, class, audience等。5. I bought some potatos and tomatos at the supermarket.中學(xué)階段以“o”結(jié)尾的名詞中有四個(gè)詞變復(fù)數(shù)時(shí)要加es,它們是tomato, potato, Negro, hero。 其余的都加s變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù)。6.This has nothing to do with their believes.(這和他們的信仰沒關(guān)系。)以f, fe 結(jié)尾的詞變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù)時(shí)一般去f, fe 加ves,如knife—knives, thief—thieves。 而roof 和belief直接加s變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù)。所以應(yīng)把believes改為beliefs.二. 冠詞7. The boss wants to hire an useful person.用a還是an,取決于后面單詞的第一個(gè)音標(biāo),如為元音用an,為輔音用a。useful的第一個(gè)音是輔音所以應(yīng)把a(bǔ)n改為a。類似的,我們說a European country.8.Plane is a machine that can fly.Plane為可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),不能單獨(dú)放在句中,應(yīng)在其前加冠詞或把它變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù),而本句后有a machine, 因此只能在其前面加a,變?yōu)锳 plane。9.He played a piano at the party yesterday.把a(bǔ) 改為the ,因?yàn)闃菲髑坝枚ü谠~。10.The machine was invented in 1920s.在in后加the,因?yàn)楸硎灸甏胕n加the再加幾十的復(fù)數(shù),如在八十年代in the 80s。11.Xiao Hong went to school by the bus every day.去掉the,因?yàn)楸硎窘煌ǚ绞接胋y直接加交通工具。三. 代詞使用代詞時(shí)請(qǐng)注意其單、復(fù)數(shù),主、賓格以及形容詞性物主代詞和名詞性物主代詞的用法?! ?2.He is one of those speakers who make his ideas perfectly clear. 定語從句的先行詞是those speakers,為復(fù)數(shù),因此從句中的指示代詞應(yīng)為復(fù)數(shù),應(yīng)把his改為their?! ?3. Whom do you think has left the lights on? 放在疑問句特殊疑問詞后的do you think / believe / guess / imagine / suppose等都不參與句子成分,把它們?nèi)サ艉?,疑問詞在句中做主語用主格,做賓語用賓格。本句中去掉do you think后缺的是主語,應(yīng)把Whom改為Who?! ?4.The boss pretended not to see John and I. John和I在句中都做的賓語,應(yīng)把I 改為me?! ?5.These books are mine。 those in the bag are her. Her是形容詞性物主代詞,后面應(yīng)該加名詞books,或把her 改為hers。四. 數(shù)詞16.There are fourteen hundreds students in our school. Hundred / thousand / million / score/ dozen等詞前有具體數(shù)字時(shí)后不加s,前面沒有具體數(shù)字時(shí)在其后加s 和of,表示大約幾百幾千的概念。如 two hundred students(兩百個(gè)學(xué)生),hundreds of students(成百上千個(gè)學(xué)生)。例句中應(yīng)把hundreds 改為hundred?! ?7.Their school is twice as larger as our school. 表倍數(shù)關(guān)系的asas中間只能用形容詞或副詞的原級(jí)。因此把larger改為large. 18.Today’s homework is a fivehundredwords position. 幾個(gè)單詞由連字符連接而組成的復(fù)合形容詞中的名詞只能用單數(shù),所以把fivehundredwords改為fivehundredword. 19.Two third of the students in our school are from America. 英語表達(dá)中分?jǐn)?shù)的
