考点3. 类指
A. 可数名词表示类指时,有三种情况
A horse is a domestic([d«ÈmestIk]家养的)animal.
= The horse is a domestic animal.
= Horses are domestic animals.
但是这三种类指方法各有侧重:
the指的是整个类别,这个类别是可以区别于另一个类别的 (多用于谈论发明物和科技问题)。如:
The compass was invented in China, but the computer was not. 罗盘是在中国发明的,但计算机不是。
a(n)侧重于指类别中任何一个的特点。如:
A cat has four legs. 猫有四条腿。
不用冠词的复数名词侧重指类别中的许多个体。如:
Children usually start walking at around one year old.
小孩儿一般一岁左右开始走路。
Do you like horses? 你喜欢马吗?
(不能说Do you like a horse?)
在类指时如何使用冠词要根据所要表达内容的具体情况而定。
The tiger is in danger of becoming extinct.
虎有灭绝的危险。
(不能说“A tiger is in danger of becoming extinct.”。濒临灭绝指的是整个虎类,而不是任何一只老虎都面临灭绝的危险。)
