  第五章 數(shù)詞

  5.1 數(shù)詞的定義和種類(lèi)

  表示數(shù)目多少或順序先后的詞叫做數(shù)詞(numeral)。數(shù)詞與不定式代詞很相似,其用法相當(dāng)于名詞與形容詞。

  數(shù)詞有兩種。表示數(shù)目多少的數(shù)詞叫做基數(shù)詞(cardinal numeral),如 one,ten,fifty-two等。表示順序先后的數(shù)詞叫做序數(shù)詞(ordinal numeral),如 first,tenth,fiftieth等。

  5.2 基數(shù)詞

  1)1-12的基數(shù)詞是:

  one 1, two 2, three 3, four 4, five 5, six 6, seven 7, eight 8, nine 9, ten 10, eleven 11, twelve 12.

  13-19,皆由3-9加后綴-teen構(gòu)成,即:

  thirteen 13, fourteen 14, fifteen 15, sixteen 16, seventeen 17, eighteen 18, nineteen 19. (注意thirteen,fifteen,eighteen的拼法)

  20-90等十位數(shù)均由2-9加加后綴-ty構(gòu)成,即:

  twenty 20, thirty 30, forty 40, fifty 50, sixty 60, seventy 70, eighty 80, ninety 90.

  21-29由十位數(shù)20加個(gè)位數(shù)1-9構(gòu)成,中間須有連字符“-”,即:

  twenty-one 21, twenty-two 22, twenty-three 23, twenty-four 24, twenty-five 25, twenty-six 26, twenty-seven 27, twenty-eight 28, twenty-nine 29.

  其它的十位數(shù)照些類(lèi)推,如:

  thirty-one 31, forty- two 42, fifty-three 53, sixty- four 64, seventy-five 75, eighty-six 86, ninety-seven 97.

  2)百位數(shù)由1-9加hundred構(gòu)成,如包含十位數(shù)及個(gè)位數(shù),中間用and連接,也可以不用;如只包含個(gè)位數(shù),即十位數(shù)為零時(shí),則and不可省。如:

  a (one) hundred 100

  two hundred 200

  three hundred 300

  seven hundred and six 706

  a (one) hundred (and) twenty-five 125

  three hundred (and) forty-one 341

  nine hundred (and) eighty-seven 987

  twelve hundred 1200 (英語(yǔ)中從1100-1900之間的整數(shù)常用hundred表示)

  3)千位數(shù)由1-9加thousand構(gòu)成,其后的百、十、個(gè)位數(shù)構(gòu)成方法同前。如:

  a (one) thousand 1000

  two thousand 2000

  three thousand 3000

  five thousand six hundred 5600

  six thousand eight hundred 6800

  a (one) thousand one hundred (and) forty-nine 1149 (此處hundred之前不可用a )

  three thousand five hundred (and) thirty-seven 3537

  英語(yǔ)里沒(méi)有“萬(wàn)”這一單位,萬(wàn)也用thousand表示。如:

  ten thousand 10 000

  twenty thousand 20 000

  thirty thousand 30 000

  ten thousand one hundred 10 100

  twenty thousand two hundred (and) thirty 20 230

  forty thousand seven hundred (and) eighty-five 40 785

  fifty-five thousand four hundred (and) ninety-three 55 493

  十萬(wàn)的說(shuō)法是:

  a (one) hundred thousand 100 000

  two hundred thousand 200 000

  three hundred thousand 300 000

  one hundred and one thousand 101 000 (此處thousand之前不可用a )

  two hundred twenty thousand 220 000

  three hundred forty thousand five hundred 340 500

  four hundred sixty-two thousand seven hundred (and) eighty-nine 462 789

  4)百萬(wàn)的說(shuō)法是:

  a (one) million 1 000 000

  two million 2 000 000

  three million 3 000 000

  two million three hundred thousand 2 300 000

  three million four hundred twenty-one thousand five hundred 3 421 500

  four million five hundred thirty-five thousand six hundred (and) fifty-nine 4 535 659

  千萬(wàn)及千萬(wàn)以上的說(shuō)法是:

  sixty million 6千萬(wàn)

  five hundred million 5億

  eight thousand million 80億(等于美國(guó)英語(yǔ)eight billion)

  thirty thousand million 3百億(等于美國(guó)英語(yǔ)thirty billion)

  a (one) hundred thousand million 1千億(等于美國(guó)英語(yǔ)a (one) hundred billion)

  [注]英國(guó)英語(yǔ)的billion=1 000 000 000 000,即10的12次方,等于美國(guó)英語(yǔ)的trillion。現(xiàn)在英國(guó)也有人采用美國(guó)用法,故英國(guó)計(jì)量局認(rèn)為最好避免使用billion,trillion(美制10的12次方,英制10的15次方)和quadrillion((美制10的15次方,英制10的18次方)。

  5)基數(shù)詞相當(dāng)于名詞,可有復(fù)數(shù)形式,其構(gòu)成方法及讀音與名詞相同。hundred,thousand,million的復(fù)數(shù)形式常后接of短語(yǔ),表示不確定數(shù)目。如:

  two threes 兩個(gè)三

  a man in his forties 40多歲的人

  hundreds (thousands,millions) of dollars 成百(千,百萬(wàn))美元

  tens of thousands of people 成萬(wàn)的人

  hundreds and hundreds of times 成百倍

  thousands upon thousands people 成千上萬(wàn)的人

  [注] million的名詞性較強(qiáng),故亦可說(shuō)a million of times(百萬(wàn)倍),two millions of people (2百萬(wàn)人)等。

  如hundreds,thousands,millions的意義清楚,其后的of短語(yǔ)可省去。如:

  (1)Hundreds of thousands are homeless. 幾十萬(wàn)人無(wú)家可歸。

  (2)Millions are starving. 成百萬(wàn)人在挨餓。

  (3)The dollar revenues each year were undoubtedly in the tens of thousands. 每年美元?dú)q收肯定以萬(wàn)計(jì)。

  表示數(shù)量的dozens與scores的用法和hundreds,thousands相似。如:

  (4)I have told you dozens of times. 我跟你說(shuō)過(guò)幾十次了。

  (5)They received scores of letters about their TV programs. 關(guān)于他們的電視節(jié)目,他們收到了大批來(lái)信。

  5.3基數(shù)詞的功用

  英語(yǔ)序數(shù)詞第1-19除first,second與third有特殊形式外,其余均由基數(shù)詞加后綴-th構(gòu)成?,F(xiàn)將第1-19序數(shù)詞(包括其縮寫(xiě)式)列出如下:

  first 1st,second 2nd,third 3rd,fourth 4th,fifth 5th (fif加th),sixth 6th,seventh 7th,eighth 8th(后只加h),ninth 9th(nin加th),tenth 10th,eleventh 11th,twelfth 12th (twelf加th),thirteenth 13th,fourteenth 14th,fifteenth 15th,sixteenth 16th,seventeenth 17th,eighteenth 18th, nineteenth 19th。

  十位數(shù)的序數(shù)詞的構(gòu)成方法是:先將十位數(shù)的基數(shù)詞的詞尾ty中的y變?yōu)閕,然后加后綴-eth。如:twentieth 20th,thirtieth 30th,fortieth 40th。

  十位數(shù)的序數(shù)詞如包含1-9的個(gè)位數(shù)時(shí),十位數(shù)用基數(shù)詞,個(gè)位數(shù)用序數(shù)詞,中間須有連字符“-”。如:twenty-first 21st,thirty-second 32nd,forty-fourth 44th,eighty-seventh 87th。

  百、千、萬(wàn)等的序數(shù)詞由hundred,thousand等加-th,前面加有關(guān)的基數(shù)詞構(gòu)成。如:

  (one) billionth 1 000 000 000th

  注意序數(shù)詞hundredth,thousandth, millionth, billionth之前的“一”只可用one,不可用a。

  這些多位數(shù)序數(shù)詞的后位數(shù)如包含1-9時(shí),后位數(shù)用序數(shù)詞,前位數(shù)用基數(shù)詞,中間出現(xiàn)零時(shí),須用and連接。如:

  two hundred and first 201st

  three thousand two hundred (and) twenty-first 3221th

  序數(shù)詞亦可有復(fù)數(shù)形式,其構(gòu)成方法及讀音與名詞相同。

  3)小數(shù)的讀法是:小數(shù)點(diǎn)前的基數(shù)詞與前面所講的基數(shù)詞讀法相同,小數(shù)點(diǎn)后則須將數(shù)字一一讀出。如:

  5.7 算式表示法

  關(guān)于加、減、乘、除算式的讀法:

  2+2=4 讀作 Two plus two equal(s) four.

  10-3=7 讀作Ten minus three is seven.

  9×6=54 讀作 Nine multiplied by six is fifty-four.

  20÷4=5 讀作 Twenty divided by four is five.

  [注]通常“加”可用and,如Two and two are four(2+2=4)。說(shuō)“減”可用from,如 one from four leaves three(4-1=3)。說(shuō)“乘”4×5=20亦可用Four fives are twenty或Four times five is twenty。說(shuō)“除”可用into,如 Four into twenty goes five(20÷4=5)。

  9的平方根等于3讀作 The square root of nine of three.

  27的3次方根等于3讀作 The cubic root of twenty-seven is three.

  (17-9的平方根+65/5)-(4×3)=15 應(yīng)讀作 Seventeen minus the square root of nine, plus sixty-five over five, minus four times three, equals fifteen.

  表示面積常用by,如說(shuō)一個(gè)房間的面積是3′×6′(3英尺×6英尺),應(yīng)說(shuō)three feet by six feet;如房間為6英尺見(jiàn)方,則可說(shuō)six feet by six feet,也可以說(shuō)six feet square,其總面積為thirty-six square feet。

  5.8 編號(hào)表示法

  編號(hào)可用序數(shù)詞或基數(shù)詞表示,序數(shù)詞位于名詞之前,并加定冠詞,基數(shù)詞位于名詞之后。如:the second part=part two 第二部分;the eighth lesson=lesson eight 第八課。

  由于基數(shù)詞簡(jiǎn)單,所以用基數(shù)詞的情況較多。如:

  Number 6 第6號(hào)(讀作number six,縮寫(xiě)式為No.6)

  line 4 第4行 (讀作 line four,縮寫(xiě)式為L(zhǎng).4)
