求:many,a lot of,a little,little,few,a few等等的具体用法.
many, few, a few用来修饰可数名词
a little, little 用来修饰不可数名词
a lot of 可以修饰可数名词,也可以修饰不可数名词
few,little,a few,a little
(a) few + 可数名词,(a) little + 不可数名词
a few / a little 为肯定含义,还有一点
few / little 为否定含义,没有多少了.
He has a few friends.他有几个朋友.
He has few friends.他几乎没有朋友.
We still have a little time.我们还有点时间.
There is little time left.几乎没剩下什么时间了.
典型例题:
Although he 's wealthy,he spends___ on clothes.
A.little B.few C.a little D.a few
答案:A.spend所指的是钱,不可数,只能用little或 a little.本句为although引导的让步状语从句,由句意知后句为否定含义,因此应用little表示几乎不.
固定搭配:
only a few (=few) not a few (=many) quite a few (=many)
many a (=many)

a lot of是许多.可以修饰不可数和可数名词.
many 也是许多.但是只能修饰可数名词.
