  地球的淡水资源看起来似乎有许多,取之不尽,但其实它是有尽头,水的数量又够几十亿人类喝几年呢?下面是学习啦小编给大家整理的表示许多的英文短语,供大家参阅!

  表示许多的英文短语:表示许多、大量含义的英语词组及用法

  一、修饰可数名词:

  eg:There are many people in the park.

  I have a great many things to do.

  She bought scores/ dozens of eggs yesterday morning. 2)Many a/an,也表“很/许多的+可名单,谓动用单数。

  Many a young man wants to speak English. 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!!

  二、修饰不可数名词:

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

  三、修饰可/不可数名词均可:

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

  e.g. A lot of/Lots of people(可数)went swimming yesterday.

  A lot of/Lots of work(不可数) is to be done this week.

  We have plenty of cakes(可数). Take some more.

  Don't hurry.There is plenty of time(不可数).

  2)特别说明a lot.

  用作名词,表示“很多,多数”。 He knew a lot about it.

  用作副词,修饰形容词和动词,表示“非常,相当”。

  He is feeling a lot better today.他今天感觉好多了。

  She laughed a lot.她笑得很厉害。

  3)注意a quantity of的谓语动词。后边加+不可数名词时,谓语动词用单数;后边加+可数名词复数,谓动动词复数。

  A small quantity of water(不可数名词) is needed.Water是不可数名词,谓语动词(Be动词用单数) There are a large quantity of flowers(可数名词) in the garden.Flowers是复数,谓语动词be动词用复数形式。

  4)great/large quantities of,不管后边加不可数名词还是可数名词复数,谓动都用复数形式。

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

  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。

  以上是表示很多,大量的词语词组,表示很少,有一些,常见的有上课讲的few/a few, little/a little, Several,大家可以参考笔记。
