四級語法辨析：few、little和a few的區(qū)別

英語四六級不會直接考察語法，但是聽力中需要聽句子，閱讀中需要句子，作文中需要寫句子，而語法是句子的骨架，有句子的地方就有語法，所以語法基礎(chǔ)是四六級做題之根本。下面是四級語法辨析：few、little和a few的區(qū)別的資料，希望對你有所幫助！

　　

　　There's a big difference between “few” and “a few”. In fact they have opposite meanings.

　　few和a few之間區(qū)別很大，事實(shí)上，它們的意思幾乎完全相反。

　　If you say, for example, “I have a few friends in the Ministry”, it sounds impressive.

　　比如你說“我在上頭有些朋友”，那別人會對你刮目相看的。

　　“few” = not many;“a few” = several. “Few” and “a few” are used with countable nouns.

　　few就是不多的意思，a few就是有一些的意思。Few和a few都是用來形容可數(shù)名詞的。

　　Ex: The Regulator has presented this standpoint on few occasions.

　　例1：該官員在很少的一些場合發(fā)表過這一觀點(diǎn)。

　　Ex: The Regulator has presented this standpoint on a few occasions.

　　例2：該官員在不少場合發(fā)表過這一觀點(diǎn)。

　　“Little” and “a little” work in the same way as “few” and “a few”.

　　little和a little的用法和few和a few類似。

　　“l(fā)ittle” = not much; “a little” = some. “Little” and “a little” are used with uncountable nouns.

　　little的意思是不多，a little的意思是有一些。Little和a little都是用來形容不可數(shù)名詞的。

　　Ex: I have a little money” (a modest way of saying you're reasonably wealthy).

　　例3：我有些錢(這是對我是有錢人的委婉說法)。

　　Ex: We hope to be able to complete the project in as little time as possible. (i.e. not much time – “as little … as possible” is a common phrase)

　　例4：我們希望能花最少的時間來完成這個項(xiàng)目(花越少…越好，“as little … as possible”這在英語中是個習(xí)慣用法)。
