考点3、集合名词的数
一般地说,集合名词只以单数形式出现。常见的有:family,police,cattle,team,people,government,class,group,audience(观众),public(公众),crew(全体船员)等。当这些名词作主语时,若表示一个整体时,谓语动词用单数形式;若表示集体的每一个成员时,谓语动词用复数形式。
His family is a big family./ The whole family are watching TV now.
The government welcomes the proposal.(政府欢迎该建议。)
The government are discussing the proposal.(政府官员正在讨论该建议。)
注意:
police和cattle后面的谓语动词总是用复数形式
Many cattle are kept on the farm.
Several hundred police are on duty.
考点4、of+抽象数=相应的形容词
of+geat+抽象名词=very+相应的形容词
of+no+抽象名词=not+相应的形容词(or -less,un-)
这样的抽象名词主要有:importance,value,use,help
The dictionary is of great use/help.=The dictionary is very useful/helpful.
The meeting is of great importance.=The meeting is very important.
Ginseng is of great medicine value. (西洋参具有很高的药用价值。)
Your advice is of great value to us=Your advice is very valuable to us.
His suggestion is of no use=His suggestion is not useful.
That program is of great interest to the children.
=That program is very interesting to the children.
但是,of+color/age/height/width常用来表示具有同样的颜色、年龄、高度、宽度等等。
These two jackets are of the same color.(这两件夹克衫颜色一样。)
We‘re of the same age.(我们年龄一样大。)
