高考临近，小编为大家准备了些高考词汇的辨别，希望大家能从中获益！
用法一 another或“another+单数可数名词”泛指“另一个，有一个，再一个”，其复数形式是others或“other+复数名词”泛指“别人或别的物”，有some…others(一些…另一些…)之搭配。如：
1. —What do you think of the cake?
—It’s nice. I’d like to have ________.
A. some other B. another
C. others D. other
【分析】答案选B。another指再来一块或增再加一块。
2. Young people may grow quickly in some ways and more slowly in ________.
A. the other B. some other
C. others D. these others
【分析】答案选C。some…others…一些…另一些…。the other指两者中的“另一个”;some other后必须接名词。
3. Some people like to stay at home on Sunday but ________ like to go to the cinema.
A. another B. other
C. others D. other one
【分析】答案选C。some…others…是固定搭配。再说，根据like可知，主语为复数，也只用这个答案。
用法二 the other(+单数可数名词)特指两者中的另一个，常有one…the other(一个…另一个…)的搭配;其复数形式the others或“the other +复数名词”特指在某些人或物中，除去一部分后，“其余的”“剩下的”人或物。如：
I have two brothers. One is a teacher and the other is a worker. 我有两个兄弟。一个是教师，另一个是工人。
I have four pens. One is red; the others (或the other three) are black. 我有三支钢笔，一支是红色的，另两支是黑色的。
用法三 another还可用于“another+基数词或few+复数名词”中，与“数词或some+more / other +复数名词”相当。如：
1. Shanghai is a fascinating city and we’ve decided to stay for ________ two weeks.
A. another B. other
C. the other D. other’s
【分析】答案选A。another two weeks = two other / more weeks = a further two weeks。
2. If you want to change for a double room you’ll have to pay ________ $15.
A. another B. other
C. more D. each
【分析】答案选A。another $15就是another 15 dollars。
