表示許多的英文短語

  地球的淡水資源看起來似乎有許多,取之不盡,但其實它是有盡頭,水的數量又夠幾十億人類喝幾年呢?下面是小編給大家整理的,供大家參閱!

  :表示許多、大量含義的英語片語及用法

  一、修飾可數名詞:

   are many people in the park.

  I have a great many things to do.

  She bought scores/ dozens of eggs yesterday morning. 2Many a/an,也表“很/許多的+可名單,謂動用單數。

  Many a young man wants to speak English. 記憶技巧:修飾可數名詞你會發現構成短語的主要名詞many,number,score,dozen本身都是可數的!!

  二、修飾不可數名詞:

  e.g.There is a great deal of snow on the ground. A million dollars is a large amount of money to me. 記憶技巧:much,本身不可數;deal,amount都是"量”,沒法量。所以加不可數

  三、修飾可/不可數名詞均可:

  1a lot of,lots of,plenty of,a great/large/quantity of,

  e.g. A lot of/Lots of people可數went swimming yesterday.

  A lot of/Lots of work不可數 is to be done this week.

  We have plenty of cakes可數. Take some more.

  Don't hurry.There is plenty of time不可數.

  2特別說明a lot.

  用作名詞,表示“很多,多數”。 He knew a lot about it.

  用作副詞,修飾形容詞和動詞,表示“非常,相當”。

  He is feeling a lot better today.他今天感覺好多了。

  She laughed a lot.她笑得很厲害。

  3注意a quantity of的謂語動詞。後邊加+不可數名詞時,謂語動詞用單數;後邊加+可數名詞複數,謂動動詞複數。

  A small quantity of water不可數名詞 is needed.Water是不可數名詞,謂語動詞Be動詞用單數 There are a large quantity of flowers可數名詞 in the garden.Flowers是複數,謂語動詞be動詞用複數形式。

  4great/large quantities of,不管後邊加不可數名詞還是可數名詞複數,謂動都用複數形式。

  Large quantities of food are on the table.桌上有大量的食物。

  記憶技巧:lot,plenty,quantity他們本身自己都是集合名詞,包容性好,所以二者皆可。

  以上是表示很多,大量的詞語片語,表示很少,有一些,常見的有上課講的few/a few, little/a little, Several,大家可以參考筆記。
