2007年12月英語六級考試短文改錯沖刺訓(xùn)練(7)

　　本期重點：名詞

　　名詞方面主要考查的是名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)形式(例1、4)。此時要注意的是一些詞加s后意思就有可能改變，例如：paper(紙)papers(試卷)、safe(安全的)safes(保險箱)、glass(玻璃)glasses(眼鏡)、wood(木材)woods(樹林)、work(工作)works(作品)等。還有一些特殊的復(fù)合名詞也要注意，例如father-in-law 改成復(fù)數(shù)形式是fathers-in-law。

　　考點解析：

　　例1：Operating within Seattle, which has 20 percents racial S2__________

　　minorities, the paper has put into place policies.

　　解析：在表達(dá)“百分之幾”時，只需用基數(shù)詞加上單數(shù)percent即可。

　　例2：In addition, the paper instituted a content

　　audit (審查) that evaluates the frequency and manner of

　　representation of woman and people of color in photographs S7._________

　　解析：不定冠詞a(n)或定冠詞the加上單數(shù)個體名詞可以指一類事物，若不用冠詞，則名詞須為復(fù)數(shù)。此處woman與people并列作為of 的賓語，由于people是集體名詞，單數(shù)形式表復(fù)數(shù)意義，從平衡角度出發(fā)，應(yīng)該將woman改為women。

　　例3：Words came that the missing boy had been found. 1.__________

　　解析:word為當(dāng)可數(shù)名詞時，意思為“(某人所說的)話”，當(dāng)其為不可數(shù)名詞時，意思為“消息”。根據(jù)句意，本題中word應(yīng)改為“消息”的意思，所以應(yīng)該把Words改為Word。

　　例4：They spent over a million year evolving as co-operative hunters. S5.__________

　　解析：year是可數(shù)名詞，而且前面又有a million 修飾，所以要用復(fù)數(shù)。
