一、 名词考查热点
纵观近几年的中考试题,可发现中考对名词的考查热点在于:名词的单、复数;不可数名词数量的表达;名词所有格的用法;名词作主语时的主谓一致;语境中名词的选择。
二、 名词的典型考例及分析
1. This is ______ bedroom. The twin sisters like it very much. (2004河北省)
A. Anne and Jane B. Anne\'s and Jane\'s
C. Anne\'s and Jane D. Anne and Jane\'s
[分析] 选D。当某物为几个人所共有时,只在最后一个名词后用所有格形式。这里bedroom为单数,为两个人所共有,故选D。
2. Half of the class ______ most of the work. Some of the work ______ really difficult. (2004镇江市)
A. have done, is B. has done , are
C. has done, is D. have done, are
[分析] 选A。集体名词作主语时如果强调整个集体,谓语动词用单数;如果强调组成集体的成员,谓语动词用复数;不可数名词作主语,谓语动词用单数。这里前面的集体名词class强调其中的成员,后面的work是不可数名词,故选A。
3. When we see dark ______ in the sky , we know that rain may come soon. (2004威海市)
A. stars B. planes C. clouds D. things

4. -What can I do for you, sir?
-I\'d like two ______. (2004常德市)
A. bottle of orange B. bottle of oranges C. bottles of orange D. bottles of oranges
[分析] 选C。不可数名词的具体数量要用\"a / an / 基数词 + 计量名词 + of + 不可数名词\"这一结构来表示,其中计量名词(piece, bottle, glass, pair, cup等)是可数名词。这里orange意为\"橙汁\"是不可数名词,故选C。
5. On ______ Day the boys and girls had a good time. (2004梧州市)
A. Children B. Children\'s C. Children\' D. childrens
[分析] 选B。以-s结尾的复数名词所有格只加\"\'\",但不是以-s结尾的复数名词的所有格仍然要加\"\'s\",故选B。
三、 冠词考查热点
冠词考查的热点:不定冠词a和an的用法;定冠词the的用法; \"零冠词\"的用法;习惯用语中冠词的正确使用等等。
