Re: [問題] GWD 8-41消失
※ 引述《chenemily (天天保持好心情)》之銘言:
: GWD-8-Q41:
: When drive-ins were at the height of their popularity in the late 1950’s,
: some 4,000 existed in the United States, but today there are less than
: one-quarter that many.
: A.there are less than one-quarter that many
: B.there are fewer than one-quarter as many
: C.there are fewer than one-quarter of that amount
: D.the number is less than one-quarter the amount
: E.it is less than one-quarter of that amount
: 用less & fewer 可以刪除 ADE
: 那BC該怎麼選哩
: 答案是B 為什麼 感覺 as many 少一個as
: C又錯在哪哩
: 謝
這題滿妙的,由於GWD當初討論的答案是C,怎樣B不好C對的看法都有
結果PP3給B...
我找到一個歪國人07年寫的,我覺得應該是正解了
less than : non countable
fewer than : countable.
the number of drive-ins are compared, so we can rule out c,d, and e? because
'amount'.
between a and b, less than is used for non-countable noun(s), so I go with B.
My question is how as many fits into the sentence? Please explain.... Thank
you.
至於他的問題,又有另一個人這樣答
"As many" is a part of an answer choice, it doesn't necessarily have to be
grammatically correct
我想這牽涉到慣用法的歪國人講的會比對岸準,
普遍我看到討論這題的歪國人都對amount很有意見
至於as many,如果不牽涉到慣用法,as many是毫無問題的副詞+形容詞結構
也就是說GMAC不認為as many as是標準的慣用法吧
