三、知能提升
（一）重点单词
［单词学习］
1. population
【用法】n. 人口
（1）population是集体名词，没有复数形式，当它作主语，表示整体概念时，其后的谓语动词用单数。如表示个体概念，即人口的百分之几，几分之几作主语时，其后的谓语动词用复数。
【例句】①The population of the world is growing too fast. 世界人口增长过快。
②About 80 percent of the population of China are peasants.
中国约百分之八十的人口是农民。
(2) 指人口的“多”或“少”时，一般用large或small.
【例句】①The population of China is larger than that of the USA.中国人口比美国人口多。
②The population of Japan is much smaller. 日本的人口要少得多。
（3）表示某国、某城市有多少人口时，要与of连用，其句式有两种：
①The population of +某国（某城市）+ is…
②某国（某城市）has the/a population of…。有时，“有多少人口的城市”用a city with a population of…来表示。
【例句】①The population of Australia is 19,400,000. = Australia has a population of 19,400,000.
②Beijing is a city with a population of more than ten million.
(4)提问“有多少人口”时，需用特殊疑问词what, 而不用how many 或how much。
【例句】What’s the population of this city? 这个城市有多少人口？
【考查点】人口的“多”或“少”的表达以及询问人口有多少的句式。
【易错点】人口的“多”或“少”误用many或 few及用how many 与population搭配。
【考题链接】The experts think that India’s population may be _________ than China’s ________ 2020.
A. many, by B more, in C. larger, by
答案：C.
解题思路：此题考查人口的“多”或“少”的表达，由于题目中有than，要用比较级，故先排除A；而指“人口多”时要用large, 故选C。
2. increase
【用法】v. 增加，增大
【例句】The number of students has increased.学生的人数增加了。
注意：increase to … 增加到…… increase by 增加了……
【例句】The production of iron has increased to 120 million tons, which means that it has increased by 20%。
铁的产量已增加到一亿两千万吨，意思是说它增加了20%。
【考查点】increase to …和increase by的区别。
【易错点】错用介词。
【考题链接】
棉花的产量增加了10%。The cotton output has ____________________________ 10%.
答案：increased by。
解题思路：此题考查“增加了”的翻译，由于前面有has，所以increase要用其过去分词形式，故写为increased by。
3. crowd
【用法1】n. 人群
用作名词时，其为集合名词。作主语时，其谓语用单数(视为整体时)或复数(考虑到个体成员时)均可。
【例句】①The crowd moves on, and no one tries to stop it. 人群向前移动，谁也没试图阻止。
②The crowd were running in all directions. 人群往四面八方跑去。
强调人数多时，可用其复数形式。如：
There were crowds of people waiting to get in. 有许多人在等着进去。
【用法2】v. “聚集”、“挤满”
【例句】①People crowded round to get a better view. 人们争相围观。
②Shoppers crowded the streets. 买东西的人挤满了大街。
常用结构 be crowded with
【例句】①The hall was crowded with people. 大厅挤满了人。
②The exhibition was crowded with visitors. 展览会挤满了参观的人。
此外，派生形容词 crowded 意为“拥挤的”。如
crowded trains (hotels, roads, shops) 拥挤的火车(旅馆，道路，商店)
【考查点】crowd不同词性的用法。
【易错点】词性不同时意思不明确。
【考题链接】
When a bus comes, the ____________ at the bus-stop rushes and pushes to get on.
A. people B. crowd C. police
答案：B。
解题思路：此题考查名词。由于句中所给谓语是rushes and pushes，用了单数，而people和police都是复数名词，其谓语要用复数，故选B。
4. police
【用法】n. 警察
police是警察的统称，包括policemen和policewomen，一般用作复数，作主语时，其谓语要用复数。如要表示“一个警察”，则用a policeman 来表达。
【例句】The police are looking for the robber.警察（方）正在寻找盗贼。
【考查点】词意理解。
【易错点】作主语时谓语误用单数。
【考题链接】
The police _____________ searching for the thief everywhere.
A. was B. are C. is
答案：B。
解题思路：此题考查police的用法，其作主语时，谓语要用复数，故选B。
［即学即练］
①―________ is the population of your city? ― About two million.
A. How B. What C. How many
②The police __________ looking for the man who killed someone last night.
A. is B. are C. will
③The things in the supermarket are very cheap, so it is always c______________.
④他们学校学生的数量已增加到了三千人。
The number of the students in their school has ____________________________ 3,000.
（二）重点短语
［短语学习］
1. along with
【用法】连同，跟……一起 (= together with)
along with相当于一个并列连词，当其连接并列主语时，谓语动词的数取决于充当主语的第一个名词的数。与此用法类似的短语还有together with, as well as.
【例句】The teacher along with his students has gone to the concert.
那位老师连同他的学生一起看演唱会去了。
【考查点】along with连接并列主语时的用法。
【易错点】不能确定其谓语的单复数。
【考题链接】
Look, the woman along with two girls ________ playing games in the park.
A. are B. is C. have been
答案：B.
解题思路：此题考查along with连接并列主语时的用法。由于 “A along with B ”这一结构作主语时, 谓语动词的数取决于A的数的变化，故选B。
2. thanks to
【用法】“由于，多亏”（= because of）
这一短语中，thanks是名词，to是介词。
【例句】Thanks to the doctor, the boy was saved.多亏了医生，那男孩得救了。
【考查点】短语本意。
【易错点】误以为thanks是thank you的意思。
【考题链接】
______________ the government’s efforts, our life is becoming better and better.
A. Instead of B. According to C. Thanks to
答案：C。
解题思路：此题意为“多亏了政府的努力，我们的生活正变得越来越好”，故选C。
3. add to
【用法】“增加，增添” （此处to为介词，其后接名词，代词）
【例句】Fireworks added to the attraction of the festival night.
焰火使节日之夜更加生色。
add…to… 把……加入到……
如：She added sugar to her tea. 她往她的茶里加了糖。
【考查点】add to与add…to…的区别。
【易错点】add to与add…to…的意思混淆不清。
【考题链接】坏天气更增加了我们的困难。
The bad weather only ______________________ our difficulties.
答案：added to。
解题思路：此题考查“增加了”的翻译，故写added to。
4. protect…from…
【用法】“保护……不受……侵害”（from后接名词，代词等作宾语）
【例句】It’s my duty to protect children from harm.保护孩子免受伤害是我的责任。
【考查点】短语本意。
【易错点】不会灵活翻译。
【考题链接】
He is wearing his sunglasses to __________ himself from the sun.
A. prevent B. stop C. protect
答案：C。
解题思路：此句意为“他戴太阳镜使自己免受太阳光的侵害”，prevent和stop与from构成的是prevent/stop sb from doing sth.意为“阻止某人做某事”，故选C。
5. a number of
【用法】“许多”
【考查点】the number of和a number of的区别。
辨析：the number of和a number of：
the number of：“……的数量”，跟复数名词连用作主语时，中心词是number，其谓语动词要用单数。
如：The number of students in our class is 50.
a number of: “许多”, 相当于many,修饰可数名词的复数，作主语时，其谓语动词要用复数；number前可用large
或small 等修饰，以表示程度。
如：A number of students are planting trees on the hill.
【易错点】不明确the number of和a number of谓语的单、复数。
【考题链接】
The number of women teachers in our school ________ over forty.
A. is B. were C. are
答案：A。
解题思路：the number of跟复数名词连用作主语时，其谓语动词要用单数, 故选A。
6. too much
【用法】“太多”
【考查点】too many, too much和much too的区别。
辨析：too many, too much和much too
too many：“太多”，其后接复数可数名词。
如：There are too many people in the street.
too much：“太多”，其后接不可数名词。
如：Don’t make too much noise.
much too: “太……，非常，极其”，其后接形容词或副词。
如：The car is much too expensive.
【易错点】易混淆too many, too much和much too后所接的词。
【考题链接】
You look __________ fat, so don’t eat ______________ sweet.
A. much too, too much B. too much, much too C. much too, too many
答案：A。
解题思路：fat是形容词，先排除B，sweet在这里是“甜食”的意思，是不可数名词，故选A。
［即学即练］
1. A number of students _____________ carrying water now.
A. is B. are C. were
2. There is ____________ noise and population in this area.
A. too many B. much too C. too much

答案：B。
解题思路：useful的第一个音素为［ju］，故选B。
2. 大数的读法：
迅速无误识别数词的前提是能够流利地读出数词。先从两位数读起，然后练习读三位和四位数乃至五位或六位以上的数词。其中两位和三位数的读法是读所有数词的基础。英文数词中的每一个逗点的读法也要牢记：一个逗点读“thousand”，两个逗点读“million”， 三个逗点读“billion”。还要弄清楚，每个逗点间由三位数组成。英文数词中的第四位数、第七位数、第十位数是很关键的数位。
Examples：
1,234 读作：one thousand, two hundred and thirty-four
4,567,809 读作：four million, five hundred and sixty-seven thousand, eight hundred and nine
5,678,120,000 读作：five billion, six hundred and seventy-eight million, one hundred and twenty thousand

三、知能提升
（一）重点单词
［单词学习］
1. population
【用法】n. 人口
（1）population是集体名词，没有复数形式，当它作主语，表示整体概念时，其后的谓语动词用单数。如表示个体概念，即人口的百分之几，几分之几作主语时，其后的谓语动词用复数。
【例句】①The population of the world is growing too fast. 世界人口增长过快。
②About 80 percent of the population of China are peasants.
中国约百分之八十的人口是农民。
(2) 指人口的“多”或“少”时，一般用large或small.
【例句】①The population of China is larger than that of the USA.中国人口比美国人口多。
②The population of Japan is much smaller. 日本的人口要少得多。
（3）表示某国、某城市有多少人口时，要与of连用，其句式有两种：
①The population of +某国（某城市）+ is…
②某国（某城市）has the/a population of…。有时，“有多少人口的城市”用a city with a population of…来表示。
【例句】①The population of Australia is 19,400,000. = Australia has a population of 19,400,000.
②Beijing is a city with a population of more than ten million.
(4)提问“有多少人口”时，需用特殊疑问词what, 而不用how many 或how much。
【例句】What’s the population of this city? 这个城市有多少人口？
【考查点】人口的“多”或“少”的表达以及询问人口有多少的句式。
【易错点】人口的“多”或“少”误用many或 few及用how many 与population搭配。
【考题链接】The experts think that India’s population may be _________ than China’s ________ 2020.
A. many, by B more, in C. larger, by
答案：C.
解题思路：此题考查人口的“多”或“少”的表达，由于题目中有than，要用比较级，故先排除A；而指“人口多”时要用large, 故选C。
2. increase
【用法】v. 增加，增大
【例句】The number of students has increased.学生的人数增加了。
注意：increase to … 增加到…… increase by 增加了……
【例句】The production of iron has increased to 120 million tons, which means that it has increased by 20%。
铁的产量已增加到一亿两千万吨，意思是说它增加了20%。
【考查点】increase to …和increase by的区别。
【易错点】错用介词。
【考题链接】
棉花的产量增加了10%。The cotton output has ____________________________ 10%.
答案：increased by。
解题思路：此题考查“增加了”的翻译，由于前面有has，所以increase要用其过去分词形式，故写为increased by。
3. crowd
【用法1】n. 人群
用作名词时，其为集合名词。作主语时，其谓语用单数(视为整体时)或复数(考虑到个体成员时)均可。
【例句】①The crowd moves on, and no one tries to stop it. 人群向前移动，谁也没试图阻止。
②The crowd were running in all directions. 人群往四面八方跑去。
强调人数多时，可用其复数形式。如：
There were crowds of people waiting to get in. 有许多人在等着进去。
【用法2】v. “聚集”、“挤满”
【例句】①People crowded round to get a better view. 人们争相围观。
②Shoppers crowded the streets. 买东西的人挤满了大街。
常用结构 be crowded with
【例句】①The hall was crowded with people. 大厅挤满了人。
②The exhibition was crowded with visitors. 展览会挤满了参观的人。
此外，派生形容词 crowded 意为“拥挤的”。如
crowded trains (hotels, roads, shops) 拥挤的火车(旅馆，道路，商店)
【考查点】crowd不同词性的用法。
【易错点】词性不同时意思不明确。
【考题链接】
When a bus comes, the ____________ at the bus-stop rushes and pushes to get on.
A. people B. crowd C. police
答案：B。
解题思路：此题考查名词。由于句中所给谓语是rushes and pushes，用了单数，而people和police都是复数名词，其谓语要用复数，故选B。
4. police
【用法】n. 警察
police是警察的统称，包括policemen和policewomen，一般用作复数，作主语时，其谓语要用复数。如要表示“一个警察”，则用a policeman 来表达。
【例句】The police are looking for the robber.警察（方）正在寻找盗贼。
【考查点】词意理解。
【易错点】作主语时谓语误用单数。
【考题链接】
The police _____________ searching for the thief everywhere.
A. was B. are C. is
答案：B。
解题思路：此题考查police的用法，其作主语时，谓语要用复数，故选B。
［即学即练］
①―________ is the population of your city? ― About two million.
A. How B. What C. How many
②The police __________ looking for the man who killed someone last night.
A. is B. are C. will
③The things in the supermarket are very cheap, so it is always c______________.
④他们学校学生的数量已增加到了三千人。
The number of the students in their school has ____________________________ 3,000.
（二）重点短语
［短语学习］
1. along with
【用法】连同，跟……一起 (= together with)
along with相当于一个并列连词，当其连接并列主语时，谓语动词的数取决于充当主语的第一个名词的数。与此用法类似的短语还有together with, as well as.
【例句】The teacher along with his students has gone to the concert.
那位老师连同他的学生一起看演唱会去了。
【考查点】along with连接并列主语时的用法。
【易错点】不能确定其谓语的单复数。
【考题链接】
Look, the woman along with two girls ________ playing games in the park.
A. are B. is C. have been
答案：B.
解题思路：此题考查along with连接并列主语时的用法。由于 “A along with B ”这一结构作主语时, 谓语动词的数取决于A的数的变化，故选B。
2. thanks to
【用法】“由于，多亏”（= because of）
这一短语中，thanks是名词，to是介词。
【例句】Thanks to the doctor, the boy was saved.多亏了医生，那男孩得救了。
【考查点】短语本意。
【易错点】误以为thanks是thank you的意思。
【考题链接】
______________ the government’s efforts, our life is becoming better and better.
A. Instead of B. According to C. Thanks to
答案：C。
解题思路：此题意为“多亏了政府的努力，我们的生活正变得越来越好”，故选C。
3. add to
【用法】“增加，增添” （此处to为介词，其后接名词，代词）
【例句】Fireworks added to the attraction of the festival night.
焰火使节日之夜更加生色。
add…to… 把……加入到……
如：She added sugar to her tea. 她往她的茶里加了糖。
【考查点】add to与add…to…的区别。
【易错点】add to与add…to…的意思混淆不清。
【考题链接】坏天气更增加了我们的困难。
The bad weather only ______________________ our difficulties.
答案：added to。
解题思路：此题考查“增加了”的翻译，故写added to。
4. protect…from…
【用法】“保护……不受……侵害”（from后接名词，代词等作宾语）
【例句】It’s my duty to protect children from harm.保护孩子免受伤害是我的责任。
【考查点】短语本意。
【易错点】不会灵活翻译。
【考题链接】
He is wearing his sunglasses to __________ himself from the sun.
A. prevent B. stop C. protect
答案：C。
解题思路：此句意为“他戴太阳镜使自己免受太阳光的侵害”，prevent和stop与from构成的是prevent/stop sb from doing sth.意为“阻止某人做某事”，故选C。
5. a number of
【用法】“许多”
【考查点】the number of和a number of的区别。
辨析：the number of和a number of：
the number of：“……的数量”，跟复数名词连用作主语时，中心词是number，其谓语动词要用单数。
如：The number of students in our class is 50.
a number of: “许多”, 相当于many,修饰可数名词的复数，作主语时，其谓语动词要用复数；number前可用large
或small 等修饰，以表示程度。
如：A number of students are planting trees on the hill.
【易错点】不明确the number of和a number of谓语的单、复数。
【考题链接】
The number of women teachers in our school ________ over forty.
A. is B. were C. are
答案：A。
解题思路：the number of跟复数名词连用作主语时，其谓语动词要用单数, 故选A。
6. too much
【用法】“太多”
【考查点】too many, too much和much too的区别。
辨析：too many, too much和much too
too many：“太多”，其后接复数可数名词。
如：There are too many people in the street.
too much：“太多”，其后接不可数名词。
如：Don’t make too much noise.
much too: “太……，非常，极其”，其后接形容词或副词。
如：The car is much too expensive.
【易错点】易混淆too many, too much和much too后所接的词。
【考题链接】
You look __________ fat, so don’t eat ______________ sweet.
A. much too, too much B. too much, much too C. much too, too many
答案：A。
解题思路：fat是形容词，先排除B，sweet在这里是“甜食”的意思，是不可数名词，故选A。
［即学即练］
1. A number of students _____________ carrying water now.
A. is B. are C. were
2. There is ____________ noise and population in this area.
A. too many B. much too C. too much

答案：B。
解题思路：useful的第一个音素为［ju］，故选B。
2. 大数的读法：
迅速无误识别数词的前提是能够流利地读出数词。先从两位数读起，然后练习读三位和四位数乃至五位或六位以上的数词。其中两位和三位数的读法是读所有数词的基础。英文数词中的每一个逗点的读法也要牢记：一个逗点读“thousand”，两个逗点读“million”， 三个逗点读“billion”。还要弄清楚，每个逗点间由三位数组成。英文数词中的第四位数、第七位数、第十位数是很关键的数位。
Examples：
1,234 读作：one thousand, two hundred and thirty-four
4,567,809 读作：four million, five hundred and sixty-seven thousand, eight hundred and nine
5,678,120,000 读作：five billion, six hundred and seventy-eight million, one hundred and twenty thousand
