许多”表达何其多
在英文中,将这些表示“许多,很多”的词组按其用法归类: 一、只能修饰可数名词的“许多” many、 a great/good many 、a great/large number of 、scores of、dozens of和quite a few ,这类“许多”修饰作主语的名词时,谓语动词用复数
记忆技巧:修饰可数名词你会发现构成短语的主要名词many,number,score,dozen本身都是可数的 Eg: I have many things to do.
Thereareagreat/goodmanyEnglishbooksinourschoollibrary. AgreatnumberofmyfriendshavebeentotheGreatWall. Scores/Dozensofpeoplewerekilledintheaccident. I have made quit a few good friends,too. 温馨提示:
1)many 作代词,表示“许多人,许多”的意思 eg Many of them have watched the TV play.
2) a great/good many 做代词,表示“许多人(东西)” eg A great many of us like American English better than British English.(我们中的许多人喜欢美语胜过英国英语)
3)the number of + n (可数名词复数)表示"....的数目”,用它做主语时,谓语用单数
eg The number of the students in our class is 55.
The number of books missing from the school library is large.
二.只能修饰不可数名词的“许多” much、 a great / good deal of 和a large amount of ,quite a few这类“许多”修饰主语名词时候,谓语用单数
记忆技巧:much,本身不可数;deal,amount都是"量”,没法量。所以加不可数
Eg: I don't know they gave us much help. There is a great/good deal of snow on the ground. I spend a large amount of money on books every month. 温馨提示:
1)much 单用,做名词表示“许多,大量” eg Much has been said about it .(关于这种事已经说的很多了)
2)a great deal 做名词词组和副词词组,也表示“大量,许多”/ 还可以修饰比较级,表示程度。
eg At the end of the year there was a great deal to do .(年底有很多事情做) eg They talked a great deal about the problem.(他们对这个问题谈论了许多) (他今天好多了)(修饰比较级,表示程度) 三、既可以修饰可数名词复数,又可以修饰不可数名词 a lot of 、
lots of 、plenty of 、supplies of ,a great/quantity of 、great/large
quantities of
记忆技巧:lot,plenty,quantity他们本身自己都是集合名词,包容性好,所以二者皆可。 温馨提示:
1)a lot 名词词组表示“大量,很多”/做副词词组表示“很多,非常,相当”/做程度状语修饰比较急 很多事 名词) Eg: he helped me a lot (副词 很多) I like this picture quite a lot (副词 非常)
2)large quantities of + 不可数名词/可数名词复数 ,谓语用复数 Eg: Large quantities of water are needed every day. (修饰不可数n) There are quantities of flowers in garden.(修饰可数n 复数) 3) a quantity of的谓语动词。 +不可数n, 谓语动词单数;
Eg: A small quantity of water is needed. +可数n复,谓语动词用复数。
Eg:There are a large quantity of flowers in the garden.
4) great/large quantities of+。+不可数n/+可数n复,谓语动词都用复数。
Eg: Large quantities of food were on the table.
总结:要记短语先分清短语中的关键词,就不会混了。
