Introduction
It is well known that coherent rings and semihereditary rings playimportant roles in ring theory. Recall that R is a left coherentring (resp. left semihereditary ring) if every finitely generated leftideal of R is finitely presented (resp. projective).

Introduction
Later, for a given positive integer n, the concepts of n-coherentrings and n-semihereditary rings were introduced.
R is called a left n-coherent ring (Shamsuddin, 2001) (resp. leftn-semihereditary ring) (Zhu-Tan, 2005) if every n-generated leftideal of R is finitely presented (resp. projective).
n-coherent rings and n-semihereditary rings were also further-more studied by Zhang-Chen (2007).
In particular, a left 1-coherent ring coincides with a left P-coherentring, a left 1-semihereditary ring is exactly a left PP ring (Rickartring).

Remark 2(1) RR is an n-coherent left R-module if and only if R is a left n-coherent ring. RRm is an n-coherent left R-module if and only if Ris a left (m, n)-coherent ring (Zhang-Chen-Zhang, 2005).(2) M is a coherent left R-module if and only if M is n-coherentfor any positive integer n. M is a P-coherent left R-module (Mao,2010) if and only if M is 1-coherent.(3) It is easy to see that every submodule of an n-coherent leftR-module is n-coherent. In particular, any left ideal of a left n-coherent ring R is an n-coherent left R-module.

A morphism φ : C → M is a C-precover of M if C ∈ C andthe Abelian group homomorphism Hom(C′, φ) : Hom(C′,C) →Hom(C′,M) is surjective for every C′ ∈ C.
A C-precover φ : C → M is said to be a C-cover of M if everyendomorphism g : C→ C such that φg = φ is an isomorphism.
