数词考点大盘点 一、数词考点大盘点 ? 数词在高考中虽然不像其它词类那么热,但也有其考查的重点和难点,须引起同学们的注意。 一、考查基数词的用法 1. 基数词hundred, thousand, million等表示确切数目时,其词尾不能加-s,其前面可用数词或several, some等修饰;当表示笼统数目时,其词尾要加-s,可跟of连用,其前不能用数词,但可以用several, some等修饰。 【原题再现】 ________ people in the world are sending information by e-mail every day. A. Several million B. Many millions C. Several millions D. Many million 【解析】 million前可用several修饰,此时其后不能加-s, many不能修饰million。表达几百万也可用millions of。答案为A。 2. dozen和score的用法要注意以下几点: 1) dozen与数词或many, several等连用时,不加-s,所修饰的名词前常省去of。如two (many, several) dozen pencils。但是,在a dozen of these / those people, two dozen of them等短语中应加of,这是习惯用法。 2) two score of people中应加of,但在three score and ten people(70人)中,不加of。 3) 表示几十;许多时,可使用dozens of; scores of形式。 【原题再现】 Mr. Smith ________ me to buy several ________eggs for the dinner party. A. asked; dozen B. suggested; dozens of C. had; dozen D. persuaded; dozens 【解析】 dozen前有具体数字或some, several等修饰时要用单数形式;have作使役动词时,应该用省略to的动词不定式作宾补。答案为A。 3. 注意年龄、年代的表达法。表达在某人几十岁时用in ones +逢十的基数词复数;表达在几十年代时,用in the +逢十的基数词复数。 【原题再现】 It is not rare in ________that people in ________ fifties are going to university for further education. A. 90s; the B. the 90s; / C. 90s; their D. the 90s; their 【解析】根据题意,第一空应表示年代; 第二空表示在50多岁的时候。答案为D。 二、考查序数词的用法 序数词一般由基数词+th构成。以y结尾的基数词构成序数词时,先把y变为i,再加eth。如twentieth; fiftieth。常用的不规则的序数词有:first, second, third, fifth, eighth, ninth, twelfth。序数词前通常要加定冠词the,但序数词不表示顺序而表示再一;又一时,前面要用不定冠词a(an)。 【原题再现】 The cakes are delicious. Hed like to have ________ third one because ________ second one is rather too small. A. a; a B. the; the C. a; the D. the; a 【解析】从句意可知,第一空表示再一,应填a;第二空表示顺序第二,应填the。答案为C。 三、考查分数和百分数的用法 表示几分之几或百分之几的人或物时,须在分数或百分数和人或物之间加of。若充当主语,谓语动词的数须与of后的名词保持一致。 【原题再现】 ________ of the land in that district________ covered with trees and grass. A. Two fifth; is B. Two fifth; are C. Two fifths; is D. Two fifths; are 【解析】五分之二应为two fifths;land是不可数名词,谓语动词应使用单数形式。答案为C。 四、考查倍数的表达法 英语中表达倍数常用下列句型: 1. A is three / four...times the size / height / length / width
