★英文中有些形容词可以和定冠词连用，形成“the+adj.”结构，表示一类人或东西，这时它近似于一个名词，可以说是名词化了的形容词，可以作主语，宾语等。例如：

the rich=rich people富人       the ordinary=ordinary things平常的事物

the poor=poor people穷人    the good=good things好东西

the sick=sick people病人       the dead=dead people已死的人

the brave=brave people勇者 the homeless=homeless people无家可归的人

the wise=wise people智者    the handicapped=handicapped people残疾者

★实战演练：

The rich should not look down on the poor.

富人不应当瞧不起穷人。

Heroes always come from the young.

自古英雄出少年。

Take care of the wounded and the dying.
