在外研版初中英語(2012)七年級上冊課本21頁,,有一句話: Too much chocolate isn’t good for you. 由于這里的chocolate被too much修飾,,且本身沒有加s,所以我們可以判定這個(gè)chocolate是不可數(shù)名詞,。 但是,,在這本書的50頁,有一個(gè)短語: a box of chocolates 這里的巧克力有s,,顯然是可數(shù)名詞,。 很多學(xué)生對此很困惑,巧克力到底可數(shù)不可數(shù),? 今天我們對這類既可數(shù)又不可數(shù)的名詞進(jìn)行講解,,希望對大家英語學(xué)習(xí)有所幫助。 先說巧克力,,如果chocolate指的是用可可豆制成的堅(jiān)硬的棕色甜食,,是大塊的巧克力(如下圖所示),就是不可數(shù)名詞,。 其英文解釋是: Chocolate is a sweet hard food made from cocoa beans. It is usually brown in color and is eaten as a sweet. 如果chocolate指的是巧克力糖,,夾心巧克力糖(通常為盒裝的)時(shí)(如下圖所示),就是可數(shù)名詞,。所以我們常常見到:a box of chocolates的表達(dá),。 其英文解釋是:Chocolates are small sweets or nuts covered with a layer of chocolate. They are usually sold in a box. 英語中還有很多既可數(shù)[C]又不可數(shù)[U]的名詞,同一個(gè)單詞的不同詞義會有可數(shù)和不可數(shù)的區(qū)別,。 簡言之,,詞義使然。 在初中階段,,還有以下常見單詞 1. chicken [C] 雞 They keep chickens in the back yard. 他們在后院養(yǎng)雞,。 [U] 雞肉 fried/roast chicken 炸 / 燒雞 2.exercise [U] (身體或腦力的)鍛煉,運(yùn)動 I don’t get much exercise sitting in the office all day. 我整天坐在辦公室很少運(yùn)動,。 [C] 練習(xí)題 grammar exercises 語法練習(xí)題 3.experience [U] (由實(shí)踐得來的)經(jīng)驗(yàn) Do you have any previous experience of this type of work? 你以前干過這種工作嗎,?
