some ,many,several,number of的差别
some可以修饰可数名词,也可以修饰不可数名词,如some of water,some of apples等等,但是many 只能用来修饰可数名词,many of apples.他们同时修饰可数名词时,some表示的数量不及many多,some 表示一些,many表示很多.
several,number of意思不一样
a number of 很多
several 几个
a number of 一些,许多,接复数可数名词,谓语动词用复数,如
A number of candidates have been interviewed yesterday.
昨天已经对一些候选人进行了面试.
several用来修饰可数名词,后面用名词复数.这里hundred后面不加s 与several 无关,而是hundred只有在hundreds of 短语中加s,其他指几百时,复数不加s,例如:two hundred,而不是two hundreds.
