高中英語(yǔ) 語(yǔ)法陷阱題800例-名詞 ◆典型陷阱題分析◆ 1. I found her sitting in the corner, reading _____ newspaper, with _____ in her eyes. A. a, tear B. a piece of, tears C. a, tears D. a piece of, tear 【陷阱】誤選D,許多學(xué)生錯(cuò)誤地認(rèn)為,既然news(消息)和 paper(紙)均為不可數(shù)名詞,那么newspaper(報(bào)紙)也應(yīng)是不可數(shù)的;同時(shí)認(rèn)為“眼淚”即“淚水”,“水”不可數(shù),“淚水”和“眼淚”也應(yīng)該不可數(shù)。 【分析】最佳答案為C。newspaper和 tear均為可數(shù)名詞,它們不僅可以連用不定冠詞、可以用復(fù)數(shù),而且還可以連用數(shù)詞。 Her eyes filled with tears. 她熱淚盈眶。 She dried her tears with a handkerchief. 她用手帕擦干了眼淚。 The newspapers were full of lies. 報(bào)紙上一片謊言。 A newspaper is a publication. 報(bào)紙是一種出版物。 順便說(shuō)一句,若不是將 newspaper 當(dāng)作是供閱讀或傳遞信息的一種東西,而只是把它當(dāng)成一種“紙”來(lái)看待,也可用作不可數(shù)名詞,如:(www.hz123456.com) Wrap it in (a sheet of) newspaper. 把它用張報(bào)紙包起來(lái)。 2. Her father works as a ______ in a hotel and her mother a ______ in a private company. A. cooker, typewriter B. cook, typist C. cooker, typist D. cook, typewriter 【陷阱】誤選A,許多同學(xué)想當(dāng)然地認(rèn)為:cook 用作動(dòng)詞,表示“煮飯”,所以 cooker 應(yīng)是其相應(yīng)的名詞,表示“煮飯的人”,即“廚師”;type 用作動(dòng)詞,表示“打字”,所以 typewriter 應(yīng)表示“打字員”。 【分析】而事實(shí)是:cook=廚師,cooker=炊具;typist=打字員,typewriter=打字機(jī)。即此題正確答案為B。 3. “Why couldn’t they meet us at five o’clock?” “Because they were delayed by ________.” A. heavy traffic B. heavy traffics C. crowded traffic D. crowded traffics 【陷阱】B、C、D三項(xiàng)均容易誤選。 【分析】對(duì)于此題,首先要明確traffic為不可數(shù)名詞,沒(méi)有復(fù)數(shù)形式,故排除B和D。另外,漢語(yǔ)習(xí)慣說(shuō)“交通擁擠”,而英語(yǔ)習(xí)慣上卻不能用crowded 來(lái)修飾 traffic,要表示漢語(yǔ)的“交通擁擠”,英語(yǔ)通常說(shuō)heavy traffic,即選A。如下面一題也是選A: She is not a competent driver and can’t cope with driving in _______. A. heavy traffic B. heavy traffics C. crowded traffic D. crowded traffics 4. In fact, _______ one cause that leads to the problem. A. cattle is B. cattle are C. cattles are D. the cattles are 【陷阱】此題容易誤選A,想當(dāng)然地認(rèn)為cattle是單數(shù),并且空格有表單數(shù)的one,自然謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用is。 【陷阱】其實(shí),正確答案為B。cattle(牲畜,牛)為集合名詞,盡管它不帶復(fù)數(shù)詞尾-s,卻永遠(yuǎn)表示復(fù)數(shù)意義,若用作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)要用復(fù)數(shù)。又如: For this many cattle were killed. 為此宰了不少牲畜。 The prisoners were herded like cattle. 囚犯像牲口一樣被趕到一起。 類似地,police(警察),people(人),police(警察),poultry(家禽)等也具有同樣用法,即只有單數(shù)形式,但卻表示復(fù)數(shù)意義;用作主語(yǔ)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)通常也用復(fù)數(shù);不與 a(n) 連用,但可與the連用(表示總括意義和特指)。如: The poultry have been fed. 家禽已經(jīng)喂過(guò)飼料了。 In It annoys me when people forget to say “thank you”. 遇到有人忘記道謝的時(shí)候,我就不痛快。 5. By all _______, you must try every _______ to help him. A. mean, mean B. means, means C. means, mean D. mean, means 【陷阱】誤選C,認(rèn)為第一空前有all修飾,故用means,而第二空前有every修飾,故用mean。 【分析】其實(shí),means是一個(gè)單復(fù)數(shù)同形的名詞,并且永遠(yuǎn)帶有尾-s。換句話說(shuō),在表示“方式”、“方法”時(shí),不存在mean這一形式(mean主要用作動(dòng)詞,表示“意思是”;也可用作名詞,表示“中間”、“中庸”)。此題正確答案為C,by all means為習(xí)語(yǔ),意為“一定”、“盡一切辦法”。順便說(shuō)一句,means用作主語(yǔ)時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)的數(shù)需根據(jù)句意來(lái)確定。比較: All possible means have been tried. 所有可能的辦法都已經(jīng)試過(guò)了。 Every possible means has been tried. 每種可能的辦法都已經(jīng)試過(guò)了。 若句意不能明確地表明主語(yǔ)的單復(fù)數(shù),其謂語(yǔ)則用單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)均可。如: Is [Are] there any other means of getting more money? 還有其他什么辦法可弄到更多錢嗎? |
