10、. Their poultry are kept in the yard. 比较There is not much poultry(家禽肉)in the shops. 2. 不可数名词的数通常来说,物质名词和抽象名词是不可数的,因而它们没有复数形式,对它们的计我们只能通过单位量词来进行如:watera glass of water, breadtwo pieces of bread, advicethree pieces of advice但是在一些特定下,不可数名词仍然可以有复数形式,这时它们表达一些特意义。常见的有以下几种情况。 1)不可数名词的复数用来表示不同的类别。如:There ar

19、s bedroom. Marys watch was stolen yesterday.2) 以“s”结尾的名词的复数形式,只需在词尾加“”。 如:students textbooks, teachers office, workers union3) 以“s”结尾的表示姓氏的名词如果是以音/z/结尾既可以加“”,也可以加“s”,如果是以音/s/结尾,需加“s”。如:Engls /Englss works, Dickens/Dickenss novels, Jones/Joness invention, Charless job, Rosss house4) 复合名词和作为一个整体的名词词组构
20、成属格时,在最后一个词尾加“s”。如:my brother-in-laws death, an hour and a halfs walk, somebody elses opinion, men doctors salary5) 并列的名词表示各自所有的关系时要把各个名词分别变成所有格。如:Marys and Jacks bedrooms, Marys and Bobs books,但如果表示共有关系,只需把最后一个词变成所有格就行。如:Mary and Jacks bedroom. Mary和Jack共有的卧室。Bob and Toms computer. Bob和Jack共有的计算机。
21、6)有时s属格所修饰的名词可以省略,这种情形又叫名词的独立属格。主要有两种情况:(1)如果s属格所修饰的名词是表示店铺、住家、公司等的名词时,往往被省略。如: I had my dinner at my uncles (home). I bought the soap at the grocers (shop). (2)如果s属格所修饰的名词在上文已经提到,或下文即要提到时,也可以被省略。如:Your handwriting is better than Toms. Jacks is even more expensive than my car. 7) 一些表示无生命的名词也常常用s属格,常
22、见的情况有:(1)表示时间的名词用s属格 如:todays newspaper, ten minutes walk, two hours evening party (2) 表示机构、团体、国家、城市等名词用s属格。如:The schools history, Beijings industry, Chinas foreign policy (3) 表示金钱、价值的名词用s属格。 如:two dollars value, five yuans meat 事实上在语言的实际运用中很多无生命的名词都可以用s属格,这是语言的活用现象,或我们可以把它们看作是一种修辞手段。如:One of the de
23、sks feet is broken.

24、 tree over there.The name of the soldier who saved the girl out of the fire is not known yet.3. 名词属格的具体用法名词的属格虽然又叫所有格,但是它并不仅仅用来表示所有关系,它可以表示以下具体其他关系。1)表示主谓关系The prime Ministers arrival is reported in the morning paper. / The arrival of the Prime Minister is reported in the morning paper. 总理的到来在早报中得到了
