I want five apples.They are three yuan.
I also want ten bananas,five pears and two watermelons.That's fifteen yuan.为什么上句主语用的是they,而下句则用that,这里的单复数怎样来判断?
答
上句中THEY是指五个苹果是复数，所以用THEY.
下句中后一段THAT是指代前面总共的水果，所以用THAT指代
答
上面的they是代指五个苹果,而下面的that是代指ten bananas,five pears and two watermelons这个整体.这个整体式作为一个单数来看待,所以用单数.
