问题描述:

请英语高手指点。

谢谢:)最好举个例子。

解析:

1.直接加s:lesson—lessons, pen —pens, 等。

2.以s, x, ch, sh 结尾的加es: bus—buses, box—boxes, 等。

3.以“辅音字母 +y”结尾的,变y为i,再加es:baby—babies, country —countries,等。但是,“元音字母+y”结尾的,则是直接加s:boy—boys,等。

4.以f或fe结尾的,一般将f或fe改为v, 再加es:knife—knives, leaf—leaves,等。

5.以字母o结尾的词加es或s:photo—photos, tomato—tomatoes,等。

6.不规则变化。如:

a.特殊的复数形式:child—children, mouse—mice,等。

b.变oo为ee:foot—feet, tooth —teeth,等。

c.含有man 或woman词语的复数是将a改为e:man—men, Frenchman—Frenchmen,等。如果man或woman作另一名词的定语时,和所修饰的名词一起变为复数: man driver—men drivers, woman doctor—women doctors,等。

d.单复数形式相同:sheep, deer,Japanese等。

考例再现:

1.Last night, there was a food accident. Ten _______ were ill, but no _______ were lost.

A. child; lives B. children; life C. children; lives D. child; life (C)

2.The boy always brushes his _____ before he goes to bed.

3.The Japanese _____ will not leave China until she finishes her study.

A. woman B. women C. man D. men (A)

解析: 从“she”可推测出前面为单数、女性,故选A。

4.Can you see nine ________ in the picture?

A. sheep B. dog C. pig D. horse (A)
