如题这是几个在新概念第15课中的句子
1.For most of them,fifty pence is a small price to pay for a nice big bar of chocolate.
2.George was not too upset by his experience because the lady who owns the sweet shop heard about his troubles and rewarded him with a large box of chocolates.
那一打巧克力,一箱巧克力等呢
答
啦啦啦!我刚刚查了《牛津进阶英汉双解词典》,里面说：“巧克力”是不可数的,但是chocolate又可当“巧克力糖”讲,就是可数的啦.可能"a large box of chocolates"中的chocolate是指整条的巧克力糖,所以用复数
