表示數量的英語短語

  英語中表示“許多”的片語很多,用法也不同。下面就由小編為大家帶來英語短語集錦,大家生活中可以多用幾遍,練一練語感。

  表示數量

  一、英語中表示“許多”的片語很多,按其用法可以分為以下三類

  1、修飾可名詞:many、a number of、 a few、many a、several等。many a 的意思相當於many , 但many a 後邊接可數名詞單數,如:

  Many a student has such a question.許多同學有這樣的疑問。

  A number of students have passed the exam.許多學生都通過了考試。

  Several days ago, I met him in the park.幾天前我在公園裡遇到了他。

  2、修飾不可數名詞:much、a great deal of、a large amount of等。

  We can get a great deal ofa large amount of information from internet.我們可以從網際網路上獲得大量資訊。

  3、既可修飾可數名詞,也可修飾不可數名詞:a lot of lots of ; plenty of; a large quantity of 等。

  Plenty of the water is polluted.許多水都被汙染了。

  Plenty of the rivers are polluted.許多河都被汙染了。

  二、few、little;a few、a little的用法:

  1、few 和a few 都修飾可數名詞。few意為“幾乎沒有”,表示否定;a few表示“有些、幾個”,表示肯定;quite a few=many修飾可數名詞表示“許多”。如:

  I have eaten a few apples today.=I have eaten many apples today.

  He has few friends.他幾乎沒有什麼朋友。

  2、little和a little都修飾不可數名詞。little意為“幾乎沒有幾個”,表示否定;a little表示“有些”。如:

  I have little money.我幾乎身無分文。

  I have a little work to do.我有一些工作要做

  quite a little=much修飾不可數名詞表示“許多。

  三、a number of 與the number of的區別:

  a number of 相當於some,a few; a great/large number of相當於many,quite a few;the number of指的是“…的數量”。如:

  The number of the students in our school is 5,000. 我們學校學生的數量是5000人。

  A number of students have passed the exam.許多學生都通過了考試。
