名词的常用修饰语
1.修饰可数名词的常用修饰语有these, those, few, a few, many, a good [great ] many, a great [ good ] number of等。
如:
Few people would agree with this.很少人会同意这种看法.

【注】a good [great] many后直接跟名词,不用介词of 。
但是,若其后所接名词有the, these, my等限定词修饰,则要用介i5! of ,如:a great many of my friends我的朋友当中的许多人。
2.修饰不可数名词的常用修饰语 有this,that,little,a little,a bit of, much,a great deal of,a large amount of等。
