dozen, score, hundred, thousand, million用法指要

padding-bottom: 66.41%;">dozen, score, hundred, thousand, million的用法

請先看一道題:

I want three ________ these eggs.

A. dozen B. dozens C. dozen of D. dozens of

此題涉及兩個方面的問題:一是 dozen 是否加詞尾-s,二是其後是否接介詞 of。由於在這個問題上dozen與score,hundred,thousand,million極為相似,所以這裡將它們放在一起敘述:

  1. 當這些不與具體數字連用,而是表示不確定的泛指數,則不僅要用複數形式,而且要後接介詞 of,然後才能後接名詞:

thousands of students 數千名學生

dozens of times 幾十次

millions of years ago 數百萬年前

  2. 當這些詞與具體數字連用時,不用複數形式,也不後接介詞of(儘管有人認為 score / dozen 之後可以有時可接 of,但慣用法認為,省略 of 則常見):

three hundred students 300名學生

three score (of) eggs 60只雞蛋

  3. 當這些詞與 a few,several,many 等數目不很具體的詞連用時,用不用複數形式均可,但是注意:不用複數形式,其後的介詞of可以省略;用複數形式,其後介詞 of不能省略:

several dozen (of) pencils / several dozens of pencils幾打鉛筆

  4. 當這些詞後面的名詞有了the,these,those 等特指限定詞修飾時,或其後的接的是us,them這樣的人稱代詞時,則此時必須用介詞 of:

two hundred of the workers 這些工人中的200人

three dozen of these eggs 這些雞蛋中的3打

four dozen of them 它們中的4打

通過以上分析:此題答案顯然只能是C。
