(动词宾语)②What'swrongwithit?它怎么了?(介词宾语)③-Openthedoor,please.It'sme.请开门,是我。(表语)七、人称代词并列用法的排列顺序1)单数人称代词并列作主语时,其顺序为:第二人称->第三人称->第一人称即:youandI;he/she/itandI;you,he/she/itandI2)复数人称代词作主语时,其顺序为:第一人称->第二人称->第三人称即:weandyou;youandthey;we,youandthey为帮助同学们理解和掌握英语人称代词,请记住下面的口诀:人称代词分主/宾,只有八对要区分。你(们)、它主/宾同一形,其余主/宾须分清。谓语之前主格填,动/介之后宾格跟,口语运用最灵活,表语也可用宾格。人称代词并列现,注意顺序礼貌见,\n二一、三一、二三一,第一人称最谦虚,若把错误责任担,第一人称须当先。你问的题目还牵涉到物主代词的问题:用来表示某人或某物属于\"谁的\"的代词叫做物主代词。形容词性物主代词有:my(我的),your(你的、你们的),our(我们的),his(他的),her(她的),its(它的),their(他们的)。形容词性物主代词具有形容词的特性,常放在名词前面作定语,表明该名词所表示的人或物是\"谁的\"。1.形容词性物主代词相当于形容词,在句中只能用作定语,后面必须跟名词。例如:Isthatyourbike?那是你的自行车吗?2.如果名词前用了形容词性物主代词,就不能再用冠词(a,an,the)、指示代词(this,that,these,those)等修饰词了。例如:这是他的书桌。误:Thisishisadesk.正:Thisishisdesk.3.与形容词一起修饰名词时,形容词性物主代词要放在形容词的前面。如:hisEnglishbooks他的英语书,theirChinesefriends他们的中国朋友。4.\n汉语中经常会出现\"我妈妈\",\"你们老师\"等这样的语言现象,虽然代词用的是\"我\"、\"你们\",但实际意义仍是\"我的\"、\"你们的\",所以在英译时,注意要用形容词性物主代词\"my\",\"your\"。例如:你妈妈在家吗?误:Isyoumotherathome?正:Isyourmotherathome?5.it\'s与its读音相同,he\'s与his读音相似,但使用时需注意它们的区别(it\'s和he\'s分别是itis和heis的缩略形式,但its和his却是形容词性物主代词)。例如:It\'sabird.ItsnameisPolly.它是一只鸟。它的名字叫波利。He\'sastudent.Hismotherisateacher.他是一名学生。他妈妈是一位教师。还有名词所有格的问题:名词所有格的构成表示有生命的东西的名词及某些表示时间、距离、星球、世界、国家等无生命的东西的名词后加’s来表示所有关系,叫做名词所有格。例如:men’sroom男厕所//ChairmanMao’sworks毛主席著作//amile’sdistance一英里的距离//astone’sthrow一步之遥//themoon’slight月光但如果该名词是以-s或-es接尾,则只在该名词后加“’”来构成所有格。例如:3hours’walk三小时的路程//fiveminutes’walk五分钟路程//twomiles’distance两英里的距离\n2.用名词所有格表示处所肉铺叫abutcher’sshop,但通常略写为abutcher’s。类似情况下的shop,house,office都可以省略:atailor’s裁缝铺//abarber’s理发店//adoctor’s诊所//mysister’s我姐姐的家//stationer’s文具店//Chaplin’s卓别林的家★清华大学★英语系学生测试使用。专为中小学生英语量身定做。官方网站:http://qinghua.yeryy.com/清华大学英语教授研究组提供
