一.什么叫同位语?

当两个指同一人或事物的句子成分放在同等位置时，若其中一个句子成分是用于说明或解释另一个句子成分的，那么用于起说明或解释作用的句子成分就叫做另一成分的同位语。如：

Laura Myers, a BBC reporter, asked for aninterview. 劳拉·迈尔，BBC的记者，要求采访。

Influenza, a common disease, has no cure. 流行性感冒是一种常见病，无药。

Mary, one of the most intelligent girls I know, isplanning to attend the university. 玛丽是我所认识的最聪敏的姑娘之一，她正准备上大学。

Who is that man, the first in the front row? 前排个人是谁?

We have two children, a boy and a girl. 我们有两个孩子，一个男孩和一个女孩。

以上所举的同位语例子都是同位语的基本形式，一般不会出错。但有有几种同位语，或由于身本结构特殊，或由于它修饰的成分结构比较特殊，往往会引起误解。现小结并举例说明如下，希望引起同学们的注意。
