我在查单词Stack时,发现:
There's stacks of work for me now.(新牛津)
A stack of things is a pile of them.
There were stacks of books on the bedside table and floor.(柯林斯)
A stack of 100 dollar bills is approximately 0.43 inches thick.(互联网页面)
从上面的例句是不是能得出 a stack of 不管接可数还是不可数名词,都加is;stacks of加可数或者不可数名词,动词的形式由该名词的单、复形式决定。
但是我感觉不太对,这个短语后搭配的动词的形式应该更加是根据语义语境来判断?
当 a stack of + 复数可数名词,谓语动词可单可复,复多见, stacks of +复数可数名词,谓语动词用复数。
例如:
1.Then a stack of books are brought in from the camp library.
2. Is it because a stack of books is facing me?
3. Stacks of books are nothing if we have no idea how to choose among them.
A stack of + 不可数名词,谓语动词用单数:
If a stack of paper is left standing in air that is too dry for it, the edges will lose moisture and shrink.
Stacks of + 不可数名词,谓语动词一般用复数,单数极罕见:
1. Stacks of paper are piled upon every surface and across virtually every inch of the floor.
2. Those stacks of wood is holding you back from your future man.
