Edison took great ( ) in science when he was still young. A,interest B.interests

问题描述:

Edison took great ( ) in science when he was still young. A,interest B.interests
take an interest in是对...产生兴趣,这里的interest应该是可数名词吧,那么上面的是不是就用名词形式呢

这些都叫作“抽象名词”,在它们前面加a/an,可以使之转化为具体名词,但并不是说这些名词就要变为复数.再举例:
a big rain,是一场大雨的意思,但是雨本身就是不可数的.
make a noise制造噪音,但是noise本身仍然是不可数的.
