[' ɡrIɡət] an amount of, a number of这两个词都表示“数量”。其区别在于:前者表示“数”,与复数名词或代词连用; 而后者表示“量”,与不可数名词连用。例如: A small number of people believe in ghosts.只有少数人相信有鬼。 A large amount of money was spent on books.一大笔钱花在了购买图书上。 v.动词 amount to, add up to, come to, count up to, run into这五个短语动词都是“总计”的意思,其差别很细微: 1.从构成上说, add up to和count up to是动副介型短语; 而amount to, come to和run into是动介型短语。 2.从主语上说, add up to和come to相同,均多为钱、账单、数目等; amount to和run into的主语多为loss, cost, expense, debt, sum等名词; 而count up to的主语则仅限It。例如: Our hotel bill added up to〔amounted to,came to〕 300 dollars.我们的旅馆费共计300美元。 His debts amounted to〔ran into〕 over 3000 dollars.他的债务已高达3000多美元。 It counts up to 300 dollars.共计300美元。3.从宾语上说, add up to, amount to, come to后一般接数字; 而count up to和run into后除可接数字外,还可接名词。例如: It counts up to a considerable sum.合计起来数目相当可观。 Losses run into six figures.损失高达6位数。4.从使用场合上说, come to最通俗, count up to不常用。 quantity,amount,number,sum这些名词均有“总数、总量”之意。 quantity书面用词,指事物的总量和总数量,侧重大批计量,含准确测量的意味。 amount普通用词,与quantity近义,但强调整体,指把所有数量、重量及度量归并在一起得出的总数。 number普通用词,指人或物的数目,强调数的概念。 sum普通用词,指简单加算的结果。 13世纪中期进入英语,直接源自古法语的amonter,意为往上,向山上去。 用作名词 n. 动词+~approach the amount of接近…数目calculate the amount计算数量credit an amount to sb's account把一笔款记入某人的账户find the total amount算出总额fix the amount确定数量know a fair amount about对…了解很多pay the amount due付到期的款项reach a certain amount达到一定数量subscribe the same amount认捐同样的数额trim the amount削减金额figure out the exact amount算出确切的数额形容词+~aggregate amount总额ample amount富足的数量annual amounts年度金额any amount任何数量approved amount核准的数额approximate amount概算额average amount平均数量certain amount一定的数量considerable amount相当数量enormous amount巨大的数量exact amount确切的数量fixed amount固定金额full amount总数,总共的量generous amount大量huge amount巨额immense amount大量large amount大量like amount相同的量maximum amount最大数量,最高额minimum amount最低数量,最低额moderate amount适量net amount净数,净计outstanding amount未付款额paltry amount微不足道的数量same amount同样的数额small amount少量sufficient amount足够的数量surprising amount惊人的数量tremendous amount极大的数量介词+~above a certain amount超过一定数额beyond this amount超过这个数目in amount总之,总计in large amounts大量的more than £1000 in amount总额超过一千英镑salary of this amount这个数目的薪金to the amount of总计达~+介词a considerable amount of memory work大量的记忆工作a great amount of information大量资料a large amount of baggage一大堆行李a large amount of jobs大量的活儿a large amount of work大量的工作a moderate amount of traffic不算拥挤的交通a proper amount of exercise and sleep适量的运动和睡眠a small amount of thinner少量的稀释剂a vast amount of大量的a vast amount of Chinese products大量的中国产品an amount of相当的,适量的an amount of information一些信息an amount of money一笔钱an amount of time一段时间an astronomical amount of money一笔天文数字的巨款an immense amount of scattered data大量分散的资料the amount of debts负债总额the high amount of taxes高额税收the large amount of police cars大批警车amount in figures小写金额amount in words大写金额 用作名词n.any amount of大量a large quantity of sth no amount of即使再多或再大也不( used for saying that sth will have no effect) 用作动词v. amount to v.+prep.
