(3)物质名词
1.气体:air(空气),gas(煤气),smoke(烟),steam[sti:m](蒸气),oxygen[>&ksid{+n](氧),hydrogen[>haidr+d{+n](氢),etc.
例:1 m3 of gas costs only 65d in the U.S.
(在美国一立方米煤气的价钱只六角五分。)
2.液体:water, oil, tea, coffee, wine, beer[bi+](啤酒), milk, coke[kouk](Coca Cola)(可口可乐), gasoline(汽油), etc.
配方奶粉 一般常用的液体计量法如下:
中国昆明 cc = cm3(亚洲性插图cubic centimeter立方厘米[公分])
liter = 1000cc(升)
自尊英语 gallon = 4 liters(加仑)
或用重量如千克(kg.),吨(ton)等
例:My new car runs 45 km a gallon(of gasoline)
(我这辆新车每加仑汽油能跑45公里。)
3.粉状或细粒状物品:flour[>flau+](面粉),salt(盐),sugar(盐糖),rice(米),军校生活sand(砂),etc.
粉状或细粒状物品的计量单位通常都使用容器或重量。
例:They sell flour by the sack[s$k].
(他们计袋出售面粉。)
注:米是可以“粒”来计算的,但是一般日常生活中,比如说要买多少米,或一家五口一天两餐要多少米来做饭,显然是不可能使用“粒”来计量的,这就是为什么“rice”归类在物质名词的道理。可是我们有时候却会说一个人擅于写细字,能在“一粒米”上写二十个字。此时“一粒米”是正确的表达法,其英文是“a grain[grein]of rice”。再举一例:
例:He ate up every grain of rice.
(他把每一粒饭都吃了。)
4.块状物体(品):常见的块状物体(品)可再区分如下:
(a)食品:bread(面包),butter(奶油),chocolate(巧克力),meat(肉——beef牛肉,chicken鸡肉,mutton[>m)tn]羊肉,pork猪肉),etc.
(b)日常用品:chalk(粉笔),paper(纸),money(钱),soap(肥皂),etc.
(c)矿物:copper[>k&p+](铜),gold(黄金),iron(铁),silver(银),etc.
(d)原料/材料:brick[brik](砖),clay[clei](粘土),cloth[kl&(:)I](布),cotton[>k&tn](棉花),earth(土壤),glass(玻璃),stone(石头),wood(木材),wool[wul](羊毛),etc
