一、什么叫同位語
當(dāng)兩個(gè)指同一人或事物的句子成分放在同等位置時(shí)，若其中一個(gè)句子成分是用于說明或解釋另一個(gè)句子成分的，那么用于起說明或解釋作用的句子成分就叫做另一成分的同位語。如：
Laura Myers, a BBC reporter, asked for an interview. 勞拉·邁爾，BBC的記者，要求采訪。
Influenza, a common disease, has no cure. 流行性感冒是一種常見病，無特效藥。
Mary, one of the most intelligent girls I know, is planning to attend the university. 瑪麗是我所認(rèn)識(shí)的最聰敏的姑娘之一，她正準(zhǔn)備上大學(xué)。
Who is that man, the first in the front row? 前排第一個(gè)人是誰?
We have two children, a boy and a girl. 我們有兩個(gè)孩子，一個(gè)男孩和一個(gè)女孩。
以上所舉的同位語例子都是同位語的基本形式，一般不會(huì)出錯(cuò)。但有有幾種同位語，或由于身本結(jié)構(gòu)特殊，或由于它修飾的成分結(jié)構(gòu)比較特殊，往往會(huì)引起誤解。現(xiàn)小結(jié)并舉例說明如下，希望引起同學(xué)們的注意。
二、特殊同位語歸納
1. 代詞we, us, you等后接同位語
Are you two reading? 你們二人在看書嗎?
They three joined the school team. 他們3人參加了校隊(duì)。
She has great concern for us students. 她對(duì)我們學(xué)生很關(guān)心。
He asked you boys to be quiet. 他要你們男孩子安靜些。
We girls often go to the movies together. 我們女孩子經(jīng)常一起去看電影。
2. 不定式用作同位語

3. -ing分詞用作同位語

【注】這類同位語與定語比較接近，可轉(zhuǎn)換成定語從句。如：(from www.yygrammar.com)
The current affair, the biggest in its history, is being held in Guangzhou.
=The current affair, which is the biggest in its history, is being held in Guangzhou.
5. none of us之類的結(jié)構(gòu)用作同位語

We have none of us large appetites. 我們誰飯量都不大。
They neither of them wanted to go. 他們兩人都不想去。

【注】注意，同位語并不影響其后句子謂語的“數(shù)”，如：
學(xué)生每人都有一本詞典。(from www.nmet168.com)
正：The students each have a dictionary.
誤：The students each has a dictionary.
請(qǐng)比較下面一句(謂語用了單數(shù)，因?yàn)閑ach為句子主語)：
正：Each of the students has a dictionary. (from www.yygrammar.com)
6. 從句用作同位語(即同位語從句)
