2018年成人學(xué)位英語挑錯復(fù)習(xí)備考:名詞數(shù)目錯誤處

不可數(shù)名詞是沒有復(fù)數(shù)形式的,但是常常有人不小心,在某些不可數(shù)名詞上加“-s”而犯錯,其中“ experience, equipment, evidence, information”這幾個的錯誤最多。

下面一家裝修商廣告中的“experiences”(經(jīng)驗)便是一例:

“……our many years of reputable experiences.”

須知,當(dāng)“經(jīng)驗”解時,“experience”是不可數(shù)名詞,不可以有“-s”:“……our many years of reputable experience(許多年聲譽(yù)卓著的裝修經(jīng)驗)”。當(dāng)“各種各樣不同經(jīng)歷”解時,“ experience”是可數(shù)名詞,可以有復(fù)數(shù)“-s”的符號,如:

“Tom could not forget his thrilling experiences in his first trip to Guilin.”

學(xué)生作業(yè)中,類似的錯誤也不少,如:

① A lot of factors led to students' poor performances. (應(yīng)為 performance)

② Only people of irreproachable characters can aspire to be good leaders.(應(yīng)為 character)

③ More and more institutions resort to advanced equipments to assist in the education process.(應(yīng)為 equipment)

④ Without such knowledges, one would not be able to understand what was seen or heard. (應(yīng)為 knowledge)

⑤ There is still much room for further improvements.(應(yīng)為 improvement)

上述這些不可數(shù)名詞的錯誤,是不是很熟悉呢?

剛剛談的錯誤是不可有“-s”而用“-s”。另一種錯誤是應(yīng)該有 “-s”而不用“-s”。雖然后者不像前者這樣麻煩,但是也不難看到。下面三個不同的廣告中便出現(xiàn)了應(yīng)該有“-s”但漏了“-s”的名詞:

⑥“We are looking for suitable candidate to take up the following positions.”(應(yīng)為 candidates)。

⑦“Dear customer: Have you been misled by too many brochure?”(應(yīng)為 brochures)。

⑧“We specialise in rubber tile for factory, office, warehouse, etc.”(應(yīng)為 rubber tiles, factories, offices, warehouses)

⑥-⑧里的錯誤顯而易見,只要稍微小心,便不難發(fā)現(xiàn)而改正過來。但是,有關(guān)不可數(shù)名詞加“-s”的錯誤,則較難躲閃,必須加倍警惕才好。其中一個防患辦法是借重量詞,反映不可數(shù)名詞之“量” ,但不改變其形,即不要用“-s”,如:

⑨ There isn't much petroleum in the car.

⑩ John gave some evidence to indicate that the documents had been tampered with.

11. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

12. A lot of money has been donated to various charity organisations.

13. Some people today paid little attention to their extravagant acts
