英语语法题(74)P117,No.69

2个回答

  • Mrs Lindon has ____that she is unable to get a job.

    A.such little education B.so little education

    C.a such little education D.a so small education

    答案:B

    分析:句意“林顿夫人只受过如此少的教育,以至不能够获得这份工作.”

    这里主要是区分用such…that还是so…that.

    education“教育,学历”,是不可数的抽象名词.只有这种情况例外:要说“一种良好的教育”,那么它就可以受到不定冠词的修饰而表述为a good education了.在这一题中,明显不是说一种…的教育,而是指受教育程度很少,是用作正常的不可数抽象名词,因此不能用冠词修饰.排除C,D.

    另外,要特别注意:little在此是“几乎没有,一点,很少的”,表示的是否定的语气;而不是“小的”这个含义.

    当名词前的形容词为表示数目的词,即有many/much/few /little(这里 little是“几乎没有,一点,很少的”的意思,而不是 “小的” )修饰名词时,只能用so,不能用such.这是固定搭配.楼上的朋友是没有注意到这一点.所以排除A,选择B.

    附:such和so的用法区别

    1、such后面主要是修饰名词.即:such+a/an+adj.+n.或a/an+such+adj.+n..如果名词是不可数名词或复数名词,则不可以用不定冠词a或an.如:

    ①He has such a beautiful bike.We all go to see it.

    ②It's a such fine day.We all want to go to fly a kite.

    2、so后面一般只能跟形容词或副词.即:和so+adj./adv..不过,so后面也可以跟名词,但该名词必须是单数可数名词.用法为:so+形容词+a/an+单数可数名词.如:

    ①The tiger is so big.And the cat is so small.

    ②She is so lovely a girl.

    3、它们后面还可以与that从句连用.即:such…that和so…that意思是“如此……以致……”.这时的区别也同上两点.如:

    ①She is such a clever girl that she can make much progress in math

    exam.

    ②His brother is so young that he can't go to school.

    注意:当名词前的形容词为表示数目的词,即有many/much/few /little(这里 little是“几乎没有一点”的意思,而不是 “小的” )修饰名词时,such必须换成so.这是固定搭配.如:

    ①There are so many people that we can't go past.

    ②I ate so much food that I didn't want to go any farther.

    看这一句话:He is such a little boy that he can't read or write.

    这一句话中的a little不是“一点”的意思,而是“一个小的”的意思,所以,前面仍然用such,而不用so.

    给你两道很典型的题(看完上面的分析和总结,这两题应该不难了.):

    He had______little education that he can't teach _____little children

    A.so;such B.expression C.condition D.translation(附:答案为A)

    It was surprising that____ little animals eat ____ much grass.

    A.so;soB.such;so C.such;such D.so;such(附:答案为B)
