中考英語(yǔ)名詞考查熱點(diǎn)聚焦

王世文

英語(yǔ)中的名詞有可數(shù)和不可數(shù)之分，可數(shù)名詞又有單數(shù)和復(fù)數(shù)之分，名詞還有所有格形式。近年來(lái)，全國(guó)各地中考英語(yǔ)試題對(duì)名詞的考查主要集中在上述幾個(gè)方面，筆者擬對(duì)此加以歸納，并作一簡(jiǎn)析，供同學(xué)們參考。

一、考查可數(shù)名詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)形式

可數(shù)名詞有單數(shù)和復(fù)數(shù)之分，由單數(shù)變?yōu)閺?fù)數(shù)的方法如下：一般名詞在詞尾加-s; 以s, x, ch, sh結(jié)尾的名詞在詞尾加-es(但stomach在詞尾加-s); 以“輔音字母+y”結(jié)尾的名詞，先把y改為i, 再加-es,以“元音字母+y”結(jié)尾的名詞大多直接在詞尾加-s; 以f或fe結(jié)尾的名詞通常將f或fe改成v, 再加-es; 以“輔音字母+o”結(jié)尾的名詞通常在詞尾加-es, 但也有在詞尾加-s的；含主體名詞的復(fù)合名詞通常將主體名詞改為復(fù)數(shù)形式(如passers-by)，無(wú)主體名詞的復(fù)合名詞一般在詞尾加-s(如grown-ups); 由man/woman構(gòu)成的復(fù)合名詞將兩部分均改為復(fù)數(shù)形式（如women teachers）; deer, sheep, Chinese, Japanese, fish(活魚(yú))等名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)形式相同；有些名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式無(wú)規(guī)律可言，需要逐個(gè)加以記憶，如child→children, mouse→mice, man→men, woman→women, foot→feet等。有些名詞，如trousers, clothes, jeans, glasses, shoes, sunglasses等成雙成對(duì)的名詞，只有復(fù)數(shù)形式，這些名詞單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)時(shí)，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式，由a pair of或pairs of修飾這些名詞并作主語(yǔ)時(shí)，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的形式取決于pair的單復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如：

1. All the ____ teachers enjoyed themselves on March 8th, because it was their own holiday.（2007重慶市）

A. man B. men C. woman D. women

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為D。考查名詞作定語(yǔ)。句意為“所有的女教師在三月八日這一天都很愉快，因?yàn)檫@是她們的節(jié)日。man, woman作定語(yǔ)修飾名詞時(shí)，其單數(shù)形式修飾單數(shù)名詞，復(fù)數(shù)形式修飾復(fù)數(shù)名詞。

2. ——Do you know how many ____ a horse has and how many

____ a bee has?(2007年內(nèi)蒙古包頭市)

——Of course. I know.

A. teeth; feet B. tooth; foot C. foot; teeth D. teeth; foot

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為A。考查tooth, foot的用法。這兩個(gè)名詞變復(fù)數(shù)時(shí)都要把oo變?yōu)閑e，在本題中用于how many之后，都用復(fù)數(shù)，故選A。

3. How many ____ are there in the international village?

(2006廣東省)

A. Chinese B. Russian C. American

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為A。How many后面應(yīng)接可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式。三個(gè)選項(xiàng)只有Chinese單復(fù)數(shù)同形。B和C的復(fù)數(shù)形式都在其后加s。

二、考查可數(shù)名詞單、復(fù)數(shù)形式的使用

考生應(yīng)根據(jù)具體語(yǔ)境和句子意思來(lái)確定名詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式還是用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如：

1. Liu Xiang is an Olympic winner in the ____ hurdles(跨欄). Were proud of him. (2006年海南省)

A. 110-metre B. 110-metres C. 110 metre D. 110 meters

[簡(jiǎn)析]考查“基數(shù)詞+連詞符號(hào)+名詞”構(gòu)成的復(fù)合形容詞的用法，其中的名詞只能用單數(shù)形式，故答案為A項(xiàng)。

2. We have bought two ____ for the coming party. (2005年吉林省)

A. box of apple B. boxes of apples

C. box of apples D. boxes of apple

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為B。box與apple均為可數(shù)名詞，根據(jù)語(yǔ)境，空白處應(yīng)填表示復(fù)數(shù)意義的名詞性詞組boxes of apples, 故答案為B項(xiàng)。

三、考查名詞所有格的用法

名詞所有格表示該名詞與其他名詞的所屬關(guān)系。表示有生命的名詞所有格的構(gòu)成方法有兩種：不以s結(jié)尾的名詞單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)名詞，通常在詞尾加“‘s”；以s結(jié)尾的復(fù)數(shù)名詞在詞尾加“‘”。表示時(shí)間、距離、國(guó)家、城市、天體等概念的無(wú)生命名詞的所有格也用s的形式；of短語(yǔ)常用來(lái)構(gòu)成無(wú)生命的所有格；of所有格和s所有格重疊使用構(gòu)成雙重所有格，結(jié)構(gòu)為：不定冠詞/數(shù)詞/指示代詞/疑問(wèn)代詞+名詞+of+名詞所有格/名詞性物主代詞；修飾語(yǔ)與被修飾的名詞之間沒(méi)有所屬關(guān)系時(shí)，應(yīng)用名詞作定語(yǔ)。表示兩人共同擁有某物時(shí)，最后一個(gè)名詞用s, 表示兩人分別擁有某物時(shí)，兩個(gè)名詞分別用所有格形式；else的所有格為elses。例如：

1. ____ room is big and bright. They like it very much.

（2007年河北?。?/p>

A. Tom and Sam B. Toms and Sam

C. Tom and Sams D. Toms and Sams

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為C。room用的是單數(shù)形式，可知房間是兩個(gè)人共有的。當(dāng)兩個(gè)人共有某物時(shí)，名詞所有格應(yīng)該在后面那個(gè)人名后加“‘s”。

2. ——Come and see me in ____.(2007年黑龍江哈爾濱市)

——With pleasure. Thats what Im expecting.

A. two or three days

B. two or three days time

C. two or three days time

3. All the students in my class decided to have the next meeting in one ____ time.(2007年遼寧沈陽(yáng)市)

A. week B. weeks C. weeks D. weeks

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為C。該句意為“我們班所有的學(xué)生決定在一周的時(shí)間內(nèi)要開(kāi)下一次會(huì)議?！?表示“一周的”時(shí)間應(yīng)該用名詞所有格s，表示“……的”，故答案選C。

4. Li Feng bought his mother a nice handbag on ____ Day.

(2007年廣西桂林市)

A. Mother B. mother C. Mothers D. mothers

[簡(jiǎn)析]答案為C。母親節(jié)應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式，且用名詞所有格，即：Mothers Day。

四、考查根據(jù)具體語(yǔ)境來(lái)選擇名詞

在中考英語(yǔ)試卷中，不少試題要求考生從不同類(lèi)別的名詞中選擇符合語(yǔ)境的名詞，以考查考生對(duì)名詞類(lèi)別的區(qū)分能力。例如：
