二、名詞“數(shù)”清,詞義才能記準(zhǔn)
學(xué)習(xí)名詞,同學(xué)們一般都是只注意名詞的“義”,往往會忽略名詞的“數(shù)”;有時是注意“數(shù)”了,但卻是用漢語“數(shù)”的概念來想英語單詞的“數(shù)”,于是就出現(xiàn)了許多典型的錯誤。
例:Father went to his doctor for ______ about his heart trouble.
A.an advice B.advice
C.advices D.the advices
答案B。advice為不可數(shù)名詞,不能直接用不定冠詞限定,也不能使用復(fù)數(shù)。本題容易誤選A和C。
英語里,名詞有“可數(shù)名詞(countable noun)”和“不可數(shù)名詞(uncountable noun)” 之分,而可數(shù)名詞又有“單數(shù)(singular form)”和“復(fù)數(shù)(plural form)”之別。學(xué)習(xí)名詞,首先要注意其分類標(biāo)注。名詞詞義的區(qū)別和一詞多義,都是建立在名詞分類基礎(chǔ)上的。
過去我們曾經(jīng)認(rèn)為有些不可數(shù)名詞可轉(zhuǎn)化為可數(shù)名詞,其實,那并不是“轉(zhuǎn)化”的問題,而是這個名詞本身就兼有不可數(shù)和可數(shù)兩種屬性,而這兩種屬性下,其詞義自然就有不同。
例:Every year the school consumes lots of ____ to print examination _______.
A. paper; papers
B. paper; paper
C. papers; papers
D papers; paper
答案A。paper做不可數(shù)名詞是“紙張”的意思,而做可數(shù)名詞是“試題、報紙、文件”的意思。
因此,識記名詞首先要看分類屬性,然后再記詞義。在理解和把握名詞的“數(shù)”時,還要注意下面幾個問題:
1.“少有的”不可數(shù)名詞
英語中,有些不可數(shù)名詞,如:fun,progress等,是“從一而終”的,也就是說,在任何情況下都不能用不定冠詞(a/an)和數(shù)詞限定。
例一:_____ fun it is to jump into a pool or go swimming in summer!
A. What a B. How
C. How a D. What
答案D。本題容易誤選A。
例二:But back then, it was a huge ____ , especially when compared with the car mobile phones that had been in use since the 1940s.
A. progress B. mistake
C. advancement D. failure
答案C。本題容易誤選A。
2.具體化了的不可數(shù)名詞
屬于不可數(shù)名詞的有些抽象名詞,可以具體化。這時,它的前面要用不定冠詞修飾。如:
rain(雨)一a heavy rain(一場大雨),
swim(游泳)一have a swim(去游泳)
knowledge(知識)一a good knowledge of French(對法語很好的了解和熟悉)
例 Many people agree that ___ knowledge of English is a must in ___ international trade today.
A.a; / B.the; an
C.the; the D./; the
答案A。作為抽象名詞的knowledge,在這里表示“知道;熟悉”,被具體化了。
3.名詞身有兩性,即兼有可數(shù)和不可數(shù)性
英語里有很多名詞既可以是可數(shù)的,又可以是不可數(shù)的。有時意思相近,但更多的是語義大相徑庭。
例一:The teacher asked his students to help the old lady to do some housework and they made a good _____ of it.
A. job B. work
C. task D. justice
答案A。本題容易誤選B。work當(dāng)“工作”“活兒”講時,是不可數(shù)名詞,不能用不定冠詞來限定。
例二:He gained his______ by printing _______of famous writers.
A.wealth; work[!--empirenews.page--]
B.wealths; works
C.wealths; work
D.wealth; works
答案D。wealth 指“財富”,是不可數(shù)名詞;復(fù)數(shù)形式的works,指文學(xué)、藝術(shù)作品。
例三:Mr. Johnson used to work in the ___ department of the chemical ____.
A. sale; work
B. sales; work
C. sales; works
D. sale; works
答案C。復(fù)數(shù)形式的works可以指工廠(factory)。the chemical works指化工廠。
例四:____ came that they had ___ with each other for the property division.
A. Words; word
B. Word; word
C. Word; words
D. Words; words
答案C。不可數(shù)形式的word指的是“消息”,而可數(shù)的word的復(fù)數(shù)形式在這里指“爭吵”。
