来源:学大教育 时间:2013-12-22
dozen 指"12”,score 则表示"20",通常用dozens of 或 scores of 来表示“许多”。
he says he won't go there because he has been there dozens of times.
他说那里已去过好多次,所以这次就不去了。
i have been there scores of times.
我去过那里好多好多次。
注意:
1、dozen 和 score 表示精确数字时不能用复数形式。
比较:several dozens of eggs
two dozen of eggs [表精确数目,dozen用单数]
2、用作前置定语时,均须用单数,如:
many dozen of bottles of coca-cola 许多瓶可口可乐
four score and ten years 90 岁
3、要表示“十多个……”及“二十多个……”时,可用“a dozen or more……” 及 “a score or more……”:
a dozen or more students attended the seminar.
a score or more ( 或 two dozen or more ) scholars attended the symposium.
