量词:数量与可数性 · PET / B1
天天向上 · 原创语法学习讲义
先判断可数性,再表达“多、少、有一些或几乎没有”;理解量词对语气与范围的影响。
可数与不可数
many / few 配可数复数;much / little 配不可数;a lot of 两类都可用。
There are many visitors, but there is not much space.
游客很多,但空间不大。
advice、information、luggage 通常不可数;可用 a piece of advice 等单位表达。
a 的有无改变重点
a few / a little 表有一些;few / little 常强调数量不足或很少。
We have a few ideas, but little money.
我们有几个想法,但钱很少。
不要只翻成同一个“少”,要读出上下文的乐观或不足意味。
some 与 any
some 常用于肯定,也用于提供和请求;any 常用于疑问否定,也能表示任意一个。
Would you like some water? You can choose any seat.
要喝点水吗?你可以选任何座位。
不能把“疑问句一律用 any”当规则。
all / both / each / every
all 表全部,both 只指两者;each / every 后接单数名词和单数谓语;either / neither 常谈两者选择。
Every student needs a pass. Both teachers have one.
每个学生都需要通行证。两位老师都有。
of 后通常接限定词或代词:some of the students、both of them。
