如题所述

1.表示“整岁”,直接用基数词或year,age,例如“他20岁”可表示为:

He is twenty.
He is twenty years old.
He is a twenty-year-old man.
He is aged twenty.
He is at age twenty.
He is at the age of twenty.
He is twenty years of age.

2.表示“在某人几十多岁”,用“in one's +基数词复数形式”,例如:

他七十多岁。He is in his seventies.(从70岁到79岁之间)
她五十多岁。She is in her fifties.(从50岁到59岁之间)
还可以借助early,middle,late来表达得更明确一些,例如:
那女孩今年二十二、三岁。The girl is in her early twenties.
他今年十四、五岁。He is in his middle teens.
她今年二十八、九岁。She is in her late twenties.

3.表示“快满多少岁”用进行时或将来时,例如“他快满十八岁了”可说成:

He is getting on for eighteen.
He is going on eighteen years old.
He will be eighteen years old.
It will be his eighteenth birthday.

4.表示“不满多少岁”,用副词barely,nearly,al- most,quite,yet,just等,例如“她不满十七岁”有以下几种说法:

She is barely /nearly /almost seventeen.
She is not quite /yet seventeen.
She is just under seventeen.

5.表示“差多久满多少岁”用介词off,例如:

他差5个月就满19岁了。He is five months off nineteen.
她再过3年就50岁了。She is three years off fifty.

6.表示“超过多少岁”用介词past,例如:

他已年过50。He is past fifty.

    表示年龄,注意以下几组同义句 (后者比前者正式):

How old ishe?=What’s his age? 他多大年纪? He is ten
(years old). =Heis ten years of age. 他10岁。

 He joined the army at (the ageof) 18.
= He joined the army when he was 18 (years old). 他18岁参军。

2.英语中表示年老和年轻的习惯与汉语不完全相同:

 正:He is very old (young). 他年纪很大 (小)。误:His age is very
old (young). 正:He died at the early age of forty. 他年仅40岁就死了。

误:He died at the
young age of forty. (虽偶见此用法,但 学生不宜模仿)值得注意的是,old age 和 middle age 却是合符习惯的表达:Who
is going to look after them in their old age? 他们年老的时候谁来照顾他们呢? A person of 40 has
reached middle age. 一个40岁的人就算已经进入了中年。 

3.按英国习惯: 

(1) 人到了21岁就算成年,并因此引出有下列短语:come of
age 达到成年 be over age 过了成年be under age 未到成年be under age 

(2) 另外,人到了65岁就算步入“老年”(old
age),并因此有相应短语 in (old) age 年老 / with age 因为年老。 

4.表示“时期”、“时代”,多用单数形式;表示“很长时间”,可用复数形式也可用单数形式:

It’s ages [an age] since we last
met. 好久不见了。(I) Haven’t seen you for ages[an age]. 好久不见了。

表示年龄的复合形容词仅用作定语修饰名词。比如:

He is a fifteen-year-old boy.

他是一个十五岁孩子。

“at (the) age (of)…”表示“在…年龄”,多用作状语。比如:

At (the) age (of) fifteen, he went to an art school.

他十五岁时上了一所艺术学校。

“in+one’s+整十数的基数词复数形式”表示“…多岁了”。比如:

The old man is in his eighties.

这位老人八十多岁了。

Though in his sixties, he works hard like a young man.

虽然他六十多岁,但是他仍像年轻人一样工作。
