在中考中，對數(shù)詞的考查主要是基數(shù)詞與序數(shù)詞之間的變化，分數(shù)的表達法，不確切數(shù)量詞之間的關系及句中與名詞的搭配等。因此在學習數(shù)詞時除全面掌握好基數(shù)詞和序數(shù)詞的構成外，還要能正確地掌握兩種數(shù)詞的變化及其用法。
1． September is the _____ month of the year.
A. ninths B. ninth C. tenth D. eleventh
2． He wrote a _______ letter.
A. five-hundreds-words B. five-hundreds-word
C. five-hundred-word D. five-hundred-words
3． We can see _______ stars at night if it doesn't rain.
A. thousand of B. thousands
C. thousands of D. thousand
4． The computer of this kind can work ______ than the one of that kind.
A. hundred of times faster B. a hundred time faster
C. hundred times faster D. hundreds of times faster
5. About ______ of the workers in that factory are young people.
A. third fifths B. three fifths
C. three fives D. three fifth
6. ________ of the population here are peasants.
A. 20 percents B. 20 percent
C. The 20 percent D. The 20 percents
【解析】 1. 從考題所提供的答案可知應選擇序數(shù)詞，序數(shù)詞用來表示數(shù)目的順序，September表示9月份，即一年中第九個月，第九應該是ninth，不是ninths。答案為B。
2. 數(shù)字用連字符"-"連接作復合定語修飾名詞時，連字符連接的名詞和數(shù)詞都必須用單數(shù)。故答案為C。
3. 當thousand修飾名詞時，其前沒有數(shù)詞或a時，則要在thousand之后加s和of連用，表示"成千上萬的"。故答案為C。
4. 表示"數(shù)百"、"數(shù)千"、"數(shù)百萬"等不確切數(shù)目時，要用hundreds / thousands / millions of結構表示。D中hundreds of times意思是"數(shù)百倍"。答案為D。
5. 表示分數(shù)時，分子用基數(shù)詞，分母用序數(shù)詞。分子大于1時，分母要用復數(shù)形式。答案為B。
6.數(shù)詞 + percent（百分比），前面不加冠詞，且percent后不加s。答案為B。
