　　3.19 many, much

　　Many，much都意为"许多"， many + 可数名词，much + 不可数名词。

　　How many people are there at the meeting?

　　How much time has we left?

　　Many of the workers were at the meeting.

　　Much of the time was spent on learning.

　　3.20 few, little, a few, a little

　　(a) few + 可数名词, (a) little + 不可数名词

　　a few / a little 为肯定含义，还有一点

　　few / little　为否定含义，没有多少了。

　　He has a few friends.　　　他有几个朋友。

　　He has few friends.　　　 他几乎没有朋友。

　　We still have a little time. 我们还有点时间。

　　There is little time left.几乎没剩下什么时间了。

　　典型例题:

　　Although he 's wealthy，he spends___ on clothes.

　　A. little　 B. few　C. a little　 D. a few

　　答案： A. spend所指的是钱，不可数，只能用little或 a little. 本句为although引导的让步状语从句，由句意知后句为否定含义，因此应用little表示几乎不。

　　固定搭配:

　　only a few (=few)　 not a few (=many)　 quite a few (=many)

　　many a (=many)

　　Many books were sold.

　　Many a book was sold.

　　卖出了许多书。
