课文详注 Further notes on the text 1.Just a little, please.请稍加一点儿。a little (=some),一些/一点,用于修饰不可数名词。又如:
a little money/ water/coffee
一点儿钱/水/咖啡
a few (=some,severa1) 则用于可数名词。
2.One and a half teaspoonfuls, please.请放一勺儿半。
在英语中,比1大的东西,即使比2小,也需用复数表示。
3.May I...?我可以...吗?
表示“请求”或“请求允许”
4.It doesn't matter.没关系。
这是表示此意的几种常用说法之一。
5.省略
more than you have中 have后省略了 got。下文中的 less than you have和fewer than you have同此。more than表示“比……多”; less than表示“比……少”; fewer than表示“比……少”(用于可数名词)。
I've got the most中 most后省略了 chocolate。形容词的最高级之后的名词在意思清楚的时候可省略。下文中的 the least同此。 the fewest后省略了 mistakes。
6.I've ever seen,我所见过的。
定语从句,分别修饰 the best,the worst。
