量詞的使用：

由于英語中名詞分可數(shù)與不可數(shù)，量詞的使用也有區(qū)別：

修飾可數(shù)名詞

（a）few/fewer/fewest

many/more/most

a great（good）many

many a

a number of

the number of

既可修飾可數(shù)名詞 也可修飾不可數(shù)名詞

a lot of/lots of

plenty of（time,money,people）

修飾不可數(shù)名詞

（a）little/less/least

much/more/most

a great（good）deal of

an amount of/amounts of

the amount of

量詞使用中應(yīng)注意的幾個問題：

1）分清可數(shù)名詞和不可數(shù)名詞是前提；

2）不要把量詞的形式搞混淆了：下面哪個表達(dá)形式是對的？

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.

以上六個表達(dá)方式中只有F 是對的。為什么？

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 表示數(shù)目，如：The number of the students in our class is 50.

A number of 表示“一些”，“不少”，認(rèn)真對比一下，看出問題來了嗎？

問多少錢、多少重量時用：How much…？問距離時用：How far is it from…to…？
