職稱英語(yǔ)常用語(yǔ)法詳解3
發(fā)布者:重慶啟德雅思托福培訓(xùn)機(jī)構(gòu)
B. aren't many furnitures
C. hasn't much furniture
D. isn't enough furniture
解題思路:根據(jù)名詞數(shù)的概念A(yù)、B肯定錯(cuò),不必考慮;C、D的主要差異是"hasn't"與 "isn't", 句子中有there,說(shuō)明該句是there be句型,故正確答案為D.題中staff, office 等詞與解題無(wú)關(guān)。
注意辨別句子中斜體詞的數(shù)及其意義:
There is still much room for improvement. (仍有許多改進(jìn)的余地)
He has published two important papers on this subject. (他在這個(gè)課題上已發(fā)表了兩篇重要論文。)
3、以下名詞單復(fù)數(shù)同形:
means(手段) headquarters(司令部)
works(工廠) species(物種)
aircraft(飛機(jī)) Chinese(中國(guó)人)
sheep(羊) fish(魚(yú))
中國(guó)的計(jì)量單位:li(里), yuan(元), mu(畝)等
實(shí)例:
Every means has been tried out, but without satisfactory results. (每個(gè)方法都試過(guò)了,但結(jié)果不令人滿意。)
4、形式上是復(fù)數(shù)的學(xué)科名稱,如physics , statistics, dynamics 作單數(shù)看待;時(shí)間、距離、鈔票、重量等復(fù)數(shù),可以看作一個(gè)整體作單數(shù)處理,如:Two days is not enough for me to finish the task. (要我完成此項(xiàng)任務(wù)兩天是不夠的。)
5、名詞做另一名詞的修飾語(yǔ):
一般用單數(shù)形式,如:a college student中的college 為單數(shù)形式。
注意:
?。?) 以下名詞做另一名詞修飾語(yǔ)時(shí)要用復(fù)數(shù)形式:sport → a sportsman (運(yùn)動(dòng)員)/ sale → a sales department(銷售部) / savings → a savings account (儲(chǔ)蓄存款)/ communication → a communications satellite (通訊衛(wèi)星) / greeting → a greetings cable(慰問(wèn)電)
?。?)不規(guī)則名詞修飾另一名詞時(shí)數(shù)的變化:a woman doctor (一個(gè)女醫(yī)
