在雅思的听力考试中,常常有一些词让我们听得很模糊,比如一个名词是否复数等等。
下面我们来看一下名词的复数形式: 听题和答题的时候要注意名词的单复数形式。
首先要掌握可数和不可数名词等基本语法概念,具体细节可参考语法书名词的数一节。
注意几点:
1)一些名词常以单数形式出现
a. 集体名词,以单数形式出现,但实为复数。
如: people,police ,cattle,offspring,staff 等本身就是复数,不能说 a people,a police,a cattle
b. 不可数名词,不可以加-s,如 furniture;sugar; traffic
2)一些名词则以复数词出现的机会较多
例: clothes; shorts短裤; scissors剪刀; spectacles/glasses眼镜; boots; antibiotics
3)部分名词单复数同形,如: sheep, deer, salmon 鲑鱼; trout 鳟鱼,Chinese,Japanese 等。
4)有些名词复数形式较特殊,如mouse---mice,ox---oxen,goose ---geese,
datum data ,index indices , analysis analyses ,phenomenon phenomena, focus foci
5)一些名词变复数形式后,意思有变化,如:paperpapers ,custom---customs,goods货物,waters水域,fishes鱼。
特别提示:单复数属于语法问题,绝对不能错。
雅思考的是常识和语言的应用,单复数问题不仅要通过听来判断,更要靠自己的语法和语感以及对英语语言的积累判断的。只有英语语言功底过硬,这个问题上才不会丢分。
我的建议是:首先,平时在做练习的时候,如果预测的答案是名词的话,在听的时候就要特别留意听,养成留意听结尾是否有-s的习惯在听漏的情况下,从上下文进行分析,决定用哪一种形式如果实在无法判断,从语言以及概率角度讲,复数相对较保险。因为一般情况下,只要不是特指,英语习惯用复数形式
