六類容易出錯的同位語問題

■山東  柴玉鳳

當兩個指同一人或事物的句子成分放在同等位置時，若其中一個句子成分是用于說明或解釋另一個句子成分的，那么用于起說明或解釋作用的句子成分就叫做另一成分的同位語。如：

Laura Myers, a BBC reporter, asked for an interview. 勞拉·邁爾，BBC的記者，要求采訪。

Influenza, a common disease, has no cure. 流行性感冒是一種常見病，無特效藥。

Mary, one of the most intelligent girls I know, is planning to attend the university. 瑪麗是我所認識的最聰敏的姑娘之一，她正準備上大學。

Who is that man, the first in the front row? 前排第一個人是誰?

We have two children, a boy and a girl. 我們有兩個孩子，一個男孩和一個女孩。

以上所舉的同位語例子都是同位語的基本形式，一般不會出錯。但有有幾種同位語，或由于身本結構特殊，或由于它修飾的成分結構比較特殊，往往會引起誤解�，F小結并舉例說明如下，希望引起同學們的注意。

一、代詞we, us, you等后接同位語

Are you two reading? 你們二人在看書嗎?

They three joined the school team. 他們3人參加了校隊。

She has great concern for us students. 她對我們學生很關心。

He asked you boys to be quiet. 他要你們男孩子安靜些。

We girls often go to the movies together. 我們女孩子經常一起去看電影。

【溫馨提示】若能在書面表達中巧妙地用上一兩處這樣的同位語，也可以算為你的作文增加了一個小亮點。

二、不定式用作同位語

Soon came the order to start the general attack. 很快下達了發起總攻的命令。(to start the general attack與the order同位)

He followed the instruction to walk along a certain street where I picked him up. 他照吩咐沿某一條街走，我在那里接他上了車。(to walk along…與the instruction同位)

【溫馨提示】當心單項填空就這類結構命題。

三、-ing分詞用作同位語

He’s getting a job tonight driving a truck. 他今晚得到一個開卡車的差事。(driving a track與a job同位)

She got a place in a laundry ironing shirts. 她在一家洗衣店得到一個熨衣服的職位。(ironing shirts與a place同位)

The first plan, attacking at night, was turned down. 第一個計劃是夜襲，被拒絕了。(attacking at night與the first plan同位)

【溫馨提示】當心單項填空就這類結構命題。

四、形容詞用作同位語

The current affair, the biggest in its history, is being held in Guangzhou. 目前的交易會，是有史以來規模最大的，正在廣州舉行。

He read all kinds of books, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. 他讀了很多書，古今中外都有。

People, old and young, took to the streets to watch the parade. 老老少少的人都來到街頭觀看游行。

【溫馨提示】這類同位語與定語比較接近，可轉換成定語從句。如：

The current affair, the biggest in its history, is being held in Guangzhou.

=The current affair, which is the biggest in its history, is being held in Guangzhou.

五、none of us之類的結構用作同位語

We none of us said anything. 我們誰也沒說話。

We have none of us large appetites. 我們誰飯量都不大。

They neither of them wanted to go. 他們兩人都不想去。

They’ve neither of them succeeded in winning her confidence. 他們兩人誰也沒能贏得她的信任。

【溫馨提示】注意，同位語并不影響其后句子謂語的“數”，如：

學生每人都有一本詞典。

正：The students each have a dictionary.

誤：The students each has a dictionary.

請比較下面一句（謂語用了單數，因為each為句子主語）：

正：Each of the students has a dictionary.
