?名詞tear的意思是“眼淚”，“眼淚”即“淚水”，“水”不可數(shù)，所以你認(rèn)為“淚水”和“眼淚”也應(yīng)該不可數(shù)，對(duì)嗎？如果你真是這樣想的，那就錯(cuò)了。請(qǐng)看下面一道題：I found her sitting in the corner, reading _________ newspaper, with _________ in her eyes.A. a, tear????????????????? B. a piece of, tears???? C. a, tears???????????????? D. a piece of, tearD. a piece of, tears
此題最佳答案為C。newspaper和 tear均為可數(shù)名詞，它們不僅可以連用不定冠詞、可以用復(fù)數(shù)，而且還可以連用數(shù)詞。Her eyes filled with tears. 她熱淚盈眶。She dried her tears with a handkerchief. 她用手帕擦干了眼淚。The newspapers were full of lies. 報(bào)紙上一片謊言。A newspaper is a publication. 報(bào)紙是一種出版物。順便說一句，若不是將 newspaper 當(dāng)作是供閱讀或傳遞信息的一種東西，而只是把它當(dāng)成一種“紙”來看待，也可用作不可數(shù)名詞，如：Wrap it in (a sheet of) newspaper. 把它用張報(bào)紙包起來。
