Ready?名词有可数与不可数之分,有数和所有格的变化,在句中可以作主语、宾语、宾语补足语、表语、同位语等。
1. 可数名词与不可数名词
很多情况下,可以依靠常识(即用
数数的办法)来判断英语名词是否可数。名词比如,book, table 都是可数名词而water是不可数名词。一般来说,在英语中物质名词和抽象名词都是不可数名词,如flour, rice, beauty, pleasure, money等。
学习名词必须区分其是否可数。只有可数名词前才可以使用数词和不定冠词。值得注意的是,有时同一个单词所指不同,其数的概念也就不同。
例如,paper作 “纸” 解时为不可数名词,表示 “报纸” 和 “试卷” 时是可数名词;fish 指 “鱼肉” 时是不可数名词,表示“鱼”时是可数名词,只不过通常是单复数同形;coffee做 “咖啡” 解时是不可数名词,表示 “一杯咖啡” 时是可数名词。2. 名词的数
对于可数名词数的变化,一要掌握
规则变化,即名词后面加-s或者-es
的情况;二要掌握不规则变化,包括
man-men, woman-women, foot-feet,
tooth-teeth, mouse-mice, child-
children等;三要掌握单复数同形的单
词,如sheep等。除此之外,还应注意
以下几点:(1) 在一般情况下,复合名词的单复数 形式体
现在最后一个名词上,如a pencil box–
pencil boxes, a girl student–girl students。
但是如果是由man或woman构成的复合名
词,如a man doctor, a woman teacher,其
复数形式则为men doctors, women
teachers。(2) 有些名词往往以复数形式出现,如trousers,
glasses(眼镜),在表示数量时需要借助量
词,如a pair of trousers, three pairs of
trousers。
(3) 有些名词表示复数概念,往往作为一个整
体看待,如police, people。这些单词没有复
数形式,但是其后面的谓语动词却多为复
数形式。 例如:The police have caught the thief.
Many people have seen the film.
如果要表达单个数量只能换用其他单词。例如:“一名警察” 是a policeman /policeman,“一个人” 可以是a person, a man, a woman等。
不过要注意,people作 “民族,种族” 解时,是可数名词,复数形式是peoples。3. 名词的所有格
名词的所有格一般采用名词后加’s的形式,
如a child’s dream, someone’s bag;以- s结尾
的复数名词的所有格直接加 ’即可,如the
boys’ schoolbags。所有格表示的是所属关
系,采用’s结构的多为有生命的名词。如果是无生命的名词,多采用 “of+名词” 的方式表达。例如:
the window of the house 房子的窗户
the end of the year 年末
the gate of our school 我们学校的大门
注意:
a friend of my father’s与my father’s friend的含义不同,前者含有“我父亲有不止一个朋友”的意思,而后者没有这一含义。4. 名词的句法功能
名词的句法功能指名词可以充当的句
子成分,常见的有:
(1) 主语
The flight takes about thirteen hours.
航程需要大约13个小时。
Mr. Wang teaches us English.
王老师教我们英语。(2) 宾语
Many people were helping the old
man when I passed.
我路过的时候,许多人在帮助这位老人。
He has become very interested in
chess recently.
最近他对国际象棋产生了很大的兴趣。(3) 宾语补足语
We all call him Xiao Li.
我们都叫他小李。
(4) 表语
My younger brother is a policeman.
我弟弟是警察。名词还可以用作同位语、呼语等。如:Mr. Wang, my neighbour, has bought a new car.
我的邻居王先生买了辆新车。(my neighbour是Mr. Wang的同位语)
Tom, come and play games with us.
汤姆,来和我们玩游戏吧。(是呼语)1.–Is the schoolbag under the desk
