用法(1)a number of ... 有「一些(some)和」、「许多(many)」两种意思,为求明确可用a great [large] number of(很多的)与a small number of(少数的)这类的说法。 此外,由于上下文的限制有时可用the number of 表示「很多的」: He regretted the number of acquaintanceships in his life that had never developed into friendships. (他后悔一生当中有那么多的相识从来没有发展成为友谊。) (2)「a number of+复数名词」的a number of在意义上为修饰语,复数名词则为主要语,故通常当复数用。 又, numbers of ...当复数用: A number of solutions have been proposed. (有若干解决办法被提出来了) Numbers of people visit the temple every year. (每年有很多人访问该庙) 与此相对的the number of ...通常意义为「…的数目」, 故一般当单数用: The number of tickets sold is astonishingly great. (售出的票数大得惊人) 词族- numerableadj.可数的,可计算的
- numerousadj.(与复数名词连用)许多的
