仅从语法上看,Three None’s 和Three Nones 都可以说。句中的 with 表示“用”(可译成“拿”,即“拿……开玩笑”),也无不妥。根据[美]马克•莱斯特拉里比森著的《英语语法与用法手册》:……如果表示某些单词的用法,我们用撇号表示这个单词在哪里结束了以及复数在哪里开始了。如:There are too many no’s in your letter.但在非正...

同意曹老师对于不定式作定语和目的状语的用法分析。但仅就网友的这个句子来说,由于特定的上下文,我觉得分析为定语或目的状语均说得通,只是意思有所不同:1. 不定式作目的状语:I need some poison to kill these rats. 我需要一些毒药来灭鼠。正如曹老师所分析,不定式作目的状语时,可以置于句首,若需强调,可以...

what little money he had 是名词性从句,不是感叹句。what little money he had 的意思是“他仅有的那点钱”。“what little+不可数名词”强调少量,又如:He spent what little money he had on books. 他把仅有的一点钱都用来买书了。I spent what little time I had with my family. 我仅有的那一点时间都与家人在一起度过...

▲在可以后接复合宾语的介词中,最重要的要数 with 和 without。如:You look different with your hair cut. 你理发以后样子不同了。The day was bright, with a fresh breeze blowing. 天气晴朗吹着一股清风。I won’t be able to go on holiday with my mother being ill. 我母亲病了,我没法出去休假了。She was cycling...
