考点1 人称代词主格与宾格的用法
人称代词有主格和宾格之分,主格代词在句中一般用作主语、表语等,宾格代词在句中用作动词的宾语和介词的宾语。
If you keep a pet, you need to spend some time taking care of it. 如果你养宠物,你需要花费一些时间照料它。(两个you分别作主语,为主格;it指代前半句中的pet,作宾语,为宾格)
注意
① we, you, they有时可用来泛指“人们”。
They say prices are going to rise again. 据说,物价又要上涨了。
② she可以用来代指国家、船只、大地、月亮等。
China will always do what she has promised to do. 中国从来都是说话算话的。
The Titanic was on her first voyage when she sank.

③ 注意人称代词并列时的顺序:
You and I are good friends. 你和我是好朋友。(出于礼貌)
Tom and I left home early this morning.
汤姆和我今天一大早就离开了家。(出于礼貌)
You and he must be there at seven o’clock.
