—Do all the teachers agree on the idea to put up a _______ lab building?
—_______, Mr. White and Miss Green are against it.
A. six-storeys; Yes
B. six storeys; Yes
C. six-storey; No
D. six –storeying; No
答案为C。请分析一下这个题。
这种情况用什么作定语?six-storeys, six storeys, six-storey 的区别是什么?
由连词符构成的词语,相当于一个形容词,用作定语修饰名词。需要注意的是,连词符连接的名词总是使用单数形式,如 a nine-year-old boy。同样地,从句子结构看,本句第一空应该填入一个定语,所以这里应该用 six-storey。six storeys 属于名词短语,可以用作主语、表语或宾语,如:
There are six storeys in this lab building.
This lab building consists of six storeys.
