王老师的解答很好,也很实用。下面是一个小小的补充,仅供网友参考:
a piece of fruit 通常是表示“一个水果”。比如下面例子中的 piece 肯定是表示“个”:
a piece of fruit (= an apple, an orange, etc.) 一个水果(牛津)
I packed three pieces of fruit: two apples and a banana. 我打包了三个水果:两个苹果和一根香蕉。(韦氏)
但在某些特定语境中它也可以表示“一片水果”,比如下面例子中的 piece 应该是表示“片”:
He served pieces of fruit on sticks. 他端来了几串插在小棍上的水果块。(韦氏)
The dessert was topped off with cream and pieces of fruit. 甜点上涂了奶油,上面还放了几片水果。(剑桥)
In the glass was a greenish concoction with pieces of ice and fruit floating in it. 玻璃杯里是一种略带绿色的混合饮料,上面漂浮着几片冰和水果。(朗文)
