初中英语必考重难点population

核心词性：n. 人口；（某地区）全体居民一、关键语法规则（高频易错）1. 表示“人口数量”，本身单数；不能直接加 s- the population of … ……的人口（固定搭配）✅ The population of China is large.❌ The population of China are large.

2. 修饰词：用 large / small，不用 many / few✅ a large population 人口众多✅ a small population 人口稀少❌ many population

3. 提问人口：用 What / How large，不用 How many✅ What is the population of the city?❌ How many is the population…

4. 当前面有百分数、分数，指“部分居民”时，谓语动词用复数Three fifths of the population are farmers.五分之三的人口是农民。二、两个容易混淆结构1. population：整体人口（不可数概念）2. people：人们，可数✅ 500 people = 500人❌ 500 population（错误）三、常用搭配1. have a population of + 数字 拥有……人口The town has a population of 20,000.这座小镇有两万人口。2. growing/increasing population 不断增长的人口3. aging population 老龄化人口四、拓展：复数 populations只有两层含义才加s：① 多个不同国家/地区的人口the populations of European countries 欧洲各国的人口②（生物）种群animal populations 动物种群👉日常表达一个地区人口，永远不用复数五、易错题对比1. What’s the population of Germany?（√）2. About 83 million people live in Germany.（同义句转换考点！population句型 ↔ people句型常考互换）六、同义句转换（考试高频）The city has a population of one million.= The population of the city is one million.
