quantity的用法 aquantityof翻译

与后面谓语动词单、复数搭配(即主谓一致)。但是关于quantity

与谓语单复数搭配，现在说法不统一。主要有两种观点：

1、与词形保持一致

aquantity

of

/quantities

of

不管后面接复数还是单数(包括不可数)名词，只看quantity

本身。即：a

quantity

of

中的quantity

是单数，谓语动词就用单数；quantities

of

中quantities

是复数，谓语动词则与复数保持一致。例如：

Quantities

of

nuts

were

on

the

table.

Aquantity

of

nuts

was

on

the

table.

2、与意义保持一致

这种观点认为，不应该看a

quantity

of

/quantities

of

本身，而应该看这个词组后面所接的是什么名词，如果后面的名词是单数(或不可数)，则谓语用单数；如果名词是复数，那么谓语用复数。这一点与a

lot

of

相同，即遵循意义一致原则。例如：

There

is

only

aall

quantity

of

wine

left.

Great

quantities

of

sand

was

washed

down

the

hillside

by

the

rain

last

night.

Alarge

quantity

of

air

conditions

he

been

sold

since

the

summer

came.

Huge

quantities

of

oil

were

shipped

to

Japan

last

year.

结论：目前，比较倾向于与quantity

的词形保持一致，即

aquantity

of

是单数，quantities

of

是复数，而不管后面接单数或复数的名词。例如，某省一道高考题如下：

With

many

forests

being

destroyed,

huge

quantities

of

good

earth

______

each

year.

A.

is

washing

away

B.

is

being

washed

away

C.

are

washing

away

D.

are

being

washed

away

它所给的是D.

此题中，earth

是不可数名词，但quantities

是复数，所以谓语采用了复数形式D.

还有，这个选择题：

It's

apity

that

large

quantities

of

wood

____that

way

all

over

the

world.

has

been

wasted

还是he

been

wasted，还是

has

wasted

，he

wasted

用he

been

wasted，分析：quantities是复数形式，所以he，wood

是被浪费的，要用被动语态。

aquantity

of后同样接不可数名词或可数名词的复数形式，但当它作主语时谓语动词一般根据其所修饰的名词而定，而quantities

of作祝主语时，不论其后的名词可数或不可数，谓语都用复数。

那道题选一个。
