lots of 與a lot of 的區(qū)別:
1、lots of和a lot of可以當(dāng)做定語,即當(dāng)做many或much那樣來使用。因此,謂語動(dòng)詞的`數(shù)不是依據(jù)lot和lots來決定,而是依據(jù)of所引導(dǎo)的名詞的數(shù)來決定,如:
A lot of time has been wasted.有許多時(shí)間給浪費(fèi)掉了。(a lot of=much)
A lot of people have been present.已有許多人到了。(a lot of=many)
There is lots of time to spare.時(shí)間綽綽有余。(lots of=much)
2、a lot of=lots of表示”許多的“,可以修飾可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)和不可數(shù)名詞。
3、a lot是表示程度的一個(gè)短語,意為”很,非!啊H纾簍hanks a lot(多謝);know a lot about China(對(duì)中國(guó)了解很多)
4、書面語用a lot of較多,口語用lots of較多。
