职称英语考试:量词的使用

 

  由于英语中名词分可数与不可数,量词的使用也有区别:

  修饰可数名词

  (a) few / fewer / fewest

  many / more / most

  a great (good) many

  many a

  a number of

  the number of

  既可修饰可数名词 也可修饰不可数名词

  a lot of / lots of

  plenty of (time, money, people)

  修饰不可数名词

  (a) little / less / least

  much / more / most

  a great (good) deal of

  an amount of / amounts of

  the amount of

  量词使用中应注意的几个问题:

  1) 分清可数名词和不可数名词是前提;

  2) 不要把量词的形式搞混淆了:下面哪个表达形式是对的?

  A. A lot students have come back from the summer holiday.

  B. A few of the students have come back from the summer holiday.

  C. A great many of students have come back from the summer holiday.

  D. Many a student has have come back from the summer holiday.

  E. The number of students have come back from the summer holiday.

  F. A number of students have come back from the summer holiday.

  以上六个表达方式中只有F 是对的。为什么?

  A. a lot students → a lot of students

  B. a few of the students → a few students

  C. a great many of students → a great many students

  D. Many a student has come back from the summer holiday.

  E. The number of 表示数目,如:The number of the students in our class is 50.

  A number of 表示“一些”,“不少”,认真对比一下,看出问题来了吗?

  问多少钱、多少重量时用:How much…?问距离时用:How far is it from…to…?
