英语swim现在分词(剑桥MSElittleandfew的用法)
Little和few以及它们各自的不同变化形式是经常出现在选择题中的一个考点。
今天王老师就带大家一次性弄清楚little, few / a little, a few / less, fewer之间的关系和用法吧!
Little and Few
Little和few均为数量词,都有“很少的”的意思。并且这两个词都具有负面意义,代表“没有想象或预期中那么多”。而这两个词的不同在于:
little 不可数名词
I’ve got little money left in my account.
few 可数名词复数
Ben has few friends in London.
A Little and A Few与little和few的意思不同,a little和 a few意为“一些”。
同样:
a little 不可数名词
He has a little money left.
a few 可数名词复数
He has a few dollars left.
a little和 a few可以作为代词单独使用(在所指代的词汇很明显的前提下):
After that, she began to tell them a little about her life in Scotland.
Don’t take all the strawberries. Just have a few.
另外,在冠词(a/an, the),指示词(this, that),所有格(my, your)和代词(him, them)前可以使用a little of / a few of 来进行修饰:
Put the flour into a bowl, blend with a little of the milk.
A few of his films were seen abroad.
Less and FewerLess是little的比较级,fewer是few的比较级,同样:
Less 不可数名词
Jeff drinks less alcohol than John.
Fewer 可数名词复数
I have fewer pairs of shoes than I used to have.
