To save class time, our teacher has _________ students do half of the exercises in class and complete the other half for our homework.
A. us B. we C. our D. ours
此題答案選A,你會認為這道題很容易嗎?估計不少學(xué)生會做錯。下面我們?yōu)橥瑢W(xué)們歸納幾個人稱代詞的備考盲點,希望引起同學(xué)們的注意。
易錯點一 忽略人稱代詞后接名詞作同位語的用法
1. It’s necessary for _________ students to be constantly reminded of our shortcomings.
A. us B. we C. our D. ours
答案選A。students為代詞us的同位語,us students的意思是“我們學(xué)生”,由于是用作介詞for的賓語,所以要用賓語。全句意為:有必要讓人經(jīng)常給我們學(xué)生提醒我們的缺點。
2. The boss wants _________ girls to go to the airport to pick up the company’s guests.
A. you B. your C. yours D. yourself
答案選A。girls為代詞you的同位語,you girls的意思是“你們女孩子”,由于是用作動詞wants的賓語,所以要用賓語。全句意為:老板要你們女孩子去機場接公司的客人。
易錯點二 忽略人稱代詞在口語中的特殊用法和固定表達
口語中表示“我也一樣”時,可用me too;表示“我也一樣不……”時,可用me either或me neither。如:
—I’d like to go back in here. 我想回到這里來。
—Me too. 我也想。
—I don’t like horror movies. 我不喜歡恐怖片。
—Me neither. 我也不喜歡。
—I don’t have any money right now. 我現(xiàn)在沒有一分錢。
—Me either. 我也一樣。
類似地,若要表示“我們也一樣”,則可用us too。如:
—I’m glad it’s Friday. 我很高興今天是星期五。
—Us too! 我們也高興!
請看下面一道題,答案選A:
—I don’t feel like going out this evening.
—Me neither.
A. Me too B. Me also C. Me other D. Me neither.
易錯點三 忽略人稱代詞與名詞性物主代詞的細節(jié)區(qū)別
從意義上看,名詞性物主代詞相當于“形容詞性物主代詞+名詞”,所以,同學(xué)們在分不清該用人稱代詞還是名詞性物主代詞時可以看看它是否可以根據(jù)上文分解成“形容詞性物主代詞+名詞”。請看下面幾道題:
1. —Whose telephone rang?
—_________.
A. Me was B. Me did C. Mine was D. Mine did
答案選D。其中的mine指my telephone,did指rang。
2. _________ a partnership based on mutual respect, trust and understanding.
A. They were B. They being C. Theirs was D. Theirs being
答案選C。其中的theirs相當于their partnership。句意為:他們的合作是建立在互相尊重、信任和理解基礎(chǔ)上的。
易錯點四 忽略人稱代詞與關(guān)系代詞的區(qū)別
若同學(xué)們在一個考題中對于該用人稱代詞還是關(guān)系代詞拿不定主意,則可以這樣分析:若選關(guān)系代詞,則它引導(dǎo)的一定是定語從句,那么它的前就肯定不可能有像and或but這樣的并列連詞,所以,若句子已經(jīng)用了并列連詞and或but,則不可能選用關(guān)系代詞。如:
1. Last week, only two people came to look at the house, _________ wanted to buy it. (安徽卷)
A. none of them B. both of them C. none of whom D. neither of whom
答案選D。由于前面提到的是兩個人,故后面只能用表兩者的both或neither,據(jù)此可排除A和C。由于空格前用的是逗號,且沒有連詞,故只不能選B,而要選D,因為neither of whom為非限制性定語從句,用以修飾two people。
2. It is reported that two schools, _________ are being built in my hometown, will open next year.
A. they both B. which both C. both of them D. both of which
答案選D。both of which are being built in my hometown為非限制性定語從句,其中的which指代前面的two schools。
比較
(1) He wrote a lot of novels, many of _________ were translated into foreign languages.
A. it B. them C. which D. that
(2) He wrote a lot of novels, and many of _________ were translated into foreign languages.
A. it B. them C. which D. that
這兩個句子的不同之處在于,第二句多了一個并列連詞and,所以第一句應(yīng)選關(guān)系代詞which,第二句應(yīng)選人稱代詞them。
