基数词与序数词序数词讲解1.基数词变序数词可利用口诀巧记:“一、二、三,特殊记,八去“t ”九去“e”,“ve”要用 “f ”替,见 “y”变成 “i ”和“e”,词尾加上 “th ”,若是遇到几十几,只变个位就可以。”变法如下: first ,second,third ,eight— eighth nine — ninth ,five— fifth ,twelve— twelfth ,twen- ty — twentieth ,forty — fortieth ,twenty-five — twenty-fifth 。2.其余情况均在基数词后加th。如: six— sixth, nineteen — nineteenth , hundred — hundredth, thousand — thousandth 等。3. 序数词可以用作主语,宾语,表语,定语,同位语或状语。如: The first of October is our National Day. 10月 1 日是我们的国庆节。 (the first )作主语。At first she was asleep. 起先她还在睡觉。(first 做介词 at 的宾语)She was first in the queue. 她排第一。(first 作表语)This is our first lesson. 这是我们的第一课堂。 (first 作定语 ) Who is that man, the first in the front row? 前排第一个人是谁? (the first 作 that man 的同位语 ) But I must ask my parents first. 但是必须先问一下我的父母亲。(first 作状语) 4. 序数词前常用定冠词the, 表“顺序”。但如果序数词不表示顺序,而表示“又一个,另一个 ”时,则不能用 the, 要用 a. Then they had a second child — a son. 后来他们又生了一个孩子— 一个男孩。We need a second pair of shoes. 我们还需要一双鞋子。Try it a second time. 再试一下。There ’s a third boy. He’s very tall.还有另一个男孩,他很高。5. 序数词表示 “名次 ”时,不用定冠词。He was first. 他得了第一名。Who was first? Who was second ?谁是第一名?谁是第二名?注意 : 1.分数的读法:分子必须用基数词,分母用序数词。分子如果大于1,分母须用复数形式。先读分子,再读分母。分子为one 时可换用 a. 如:In 1850, about a third was covered by forest. 1850 年,大约 1/3 的土地被森林覆盖。Two thirds 三分之二。2.1/2 读作 “a(或 one)half(而不是 a second “一秒钟 ”), 1/4 既可读作 “a(或one)quarter”又可读作“a(或 one)fourt...
