Unit1 Women of achievement-grammar學案
1) the committee have discussed their report on the disaster.
2) the audience are raising their hands to signify their approval.
(3)當everyone, everybody, no one, nobody, anyone, anybody, someone, somebody等作主語時,相應的代詞一般采用單數形式。例如:
1) if anyone calls, tell him i’ll be back later.
2) everyone thinks he is the center of universe.
注:在非正式文體中,特別是在會話體里,常用代詞的復數形式是為了故意不具體說出所指的那個人的性別。例如:
1) has anybody brought their camera?
2) no one could blamed themselves.
(4)由neither … nor, not only … but also, either … or, not … but, or等連結的并列主語,其后的附加疑問部分主語用復數代詞。例如:
1) neither you nor i am wrong, are we?
2) both tom and jack came, didn’t they?
2.性、數、格一致
(1)代詞的性一般僅限于第三人稱。例如:
1) china will always do what she has promised to do.
2) the boy stood at the door with his hat in his hand.
(2) 當or或nor連接陽性名詞或陰性名詞時,代詞一般和近者保持一致。例如:
1) neither john nor mary has got what she wanted.
2) if you should see mary or thomas, tell him the news.
(3)單數名詞由and連接時,相應的代詞一般用復數形式。例如:
1) food and rent are more expensive than they used to be.
2) jim and mary spoke on the subject as if they were experts.
3.應注意的問題
(1)當句子的主語是one, 并要在句子中多次出現時,一般用第三人稱單數代詞來代替后面將出現的one或one’s;當one在句子中泛指人時,在反意疑問句中也可用you來代替。例如:
1) one should never blame his friends when he friends when he finds himself in trouble.
2) one can’t be too careful, can you (one)?
