a population of 和 population of 的具体区别 英语

网友回答

【答案】 其实区别都在句子里面,最好在句子里面体会差别.脱离句子区分其实意义不大.
  population的使用,应注意以下几点:
  1. 其前不能用数词修饰,也不能与many, few之类的词连用,指人口“多、少”用large, small;表示“某地拥有多少人口”,一般用“have a population of+基数词”.试译:
  (1)这个城市人口很多.
  误:The population of this city is very many.
  正:The population of this city is very large.
  (2)中国现有13多亿人口.
  误:China has more than thirteen hundred million population now.
  正:China has a population of more than thirteen hundred million now.
  2. 问某地的人口数,通常用what 或how large.
  What/How large is the population of Europe? 欧洲有多少人口?
  3. population指“人口”总称,是集合名词,常用单数.作主语,其谓语动词可以用单数,侧重整体;也可用复数,侧重个体.
  Half the world’s population doesn’t get enough to eat. 世界有一半人口没有足够的食物吃.
  One third of the population here are workers.这里三分之一的人是工人.(指不同的地区、时期、民族的人口时,可用复数形式.)
  另外,population of应该不算固定搭配吧.前面可以加a或者the,a population of泛指、the population of特指,就和a与the本身的区别类似.
