三． Grammar精讲：数量的表达

1. 用little / few, a little / a few, many / much等谈论数量

（1）little系列：little / a little用于不可数名词前 There is a little water in the bottle.

few系列：few / a few 用于可数名词前 There are a few bottles in the box.

（2）带a系列：a little / a few 意为“一些“，虽然不多但仍然有一些

不带a系列：little, few意为“几乎没有”，表示否定，

There are few people in the room.

There is little water left in the bottle.Li Ming is making a report now. 李明现在正在做报告

6. I’d like to practise my English more but I have _______________ chances.

2. many, much 许多； many修饰可数名词， much修饰不可数名词
