请告诉我用法
c
后面的动词和quantity 配合
有很大争议的关于"a quantity of" 和"quantities of"的主谓一致的问题,关于 a quantity of /quantities of + n.+谓语 中的谓语的单复数形式说法有三:
A.a quantity of /quantities of + n.+谓语,其中谓语的单复数形式与quantity的单复数形式保持一致,eg:
Quantities of nuts were on the table.
A quantity of nuts was on the table.
B.对于a quantity of + n.+谓语 中的谓语的单复数形式与a lot of 相同,即遵循意义一致原则;
而对于quantities of + n.+谓语 中的谓语一定用复数形式,eg:
There is only a small quantity of wine left.
A large quantity of air conditions have been sold since the summer came.
Huge quantities of oil were shipped to Japan last year.
C.a quantity of /quantities of + n.+谓语 中的谓语的单复数形式与a lot of/lots of 相同,即遵循意义一致原则.eg:
Great quantities of sand was washed down the hillside by the rain last night.
各个老师争论个不停..总的来说就是和quantity单复配合吧
