◎用法总结:others 是other的复数形式,相当于other +名词复数,意为“另外的”。other 意为“其他的,另外的”,多用作形容词, 修饰名词复数形式。the other 多指的是“两者中的另一个”,常与one 连用。the others 指的是“两部分中的另一部分”,或者说是特指确定数目中“其余的人或物”。 another意为“又一个,再一个”,此时只能接可数名词单数。another还意为“又,再,还”,此意多用于结构“another +数词+名词复数”。

3.Thousands of
[命题点三]Without rainforests, many beautiful plants and animals would die out.没有热带雨林,很多美丽的动植物将灭绝。
◎用法总结:die out意为“灭绝”。dying既是die的现在分词,也是形容词,表示“要死的;将死的;濒临死亡的”。如:
The doctor says the old man is dying.医生说老人濒临死亡了。
【辨析】die和dead都有“死亡”的意思,但是他们的词性和用法并不相同。
1.die作动词,意为“死,死亡”,是瞬时动词,表示动作。如:
The flowers will die if it can't get any water for long.如果长时间得不到水,这些花将会死亡。
His grandfather died of illness two years ago.他的祖父两年前因病去世了。
2.dead作形容词,意为“死的”,表示状态,常和be动词连用,也可用作定语。如:
The dog is dead.You needn't take it to the hospital.狗已经死了。你不用送它去医院了。
Bears doesn't like eating dead animals.熊不喜欢吃死的动物。
