-a few a little a bit的用法-第 3 页few ，a few，little ，a little，bit，a bit的用法few / a few用来修饰可数名词（可数名词的复数）。作为名词性词组时a few代替复数名词， few表示否定意义，没有，几乎没有； a few表示肯定意思，有几个。 a few dictionaries例如： He has few friends here, he feels lonely. 他这里没朋友，他感觉寂寞。 He made few mistakes. My answers are wrong. Tell me a few.little / a little用来修饰不可数名词。little表示否定意思，没有，几乎没有。 a little 表示肯定意思，有一点儿。 例如： There is little ink in my bottle, can you give me a little ink? 我瓶里几乎没有墨水了，你能给我点吗？There is little coffee here， is there?作为名词性词组时，a little， a bit代替不可数名词。There is no milk in my glass， give me a little (= a bit)，please.a bit和a little都作"一点儿"讲，两者都只能修饰不可数名词,但用法不同。 1)a bit和a little在肯定句中修饰动词、形容词、副词和比较级时可以互换，表示"一点儿"的意思。例如: I am a little (= a bit) cold. The speaker spoke up a bit/a little so as to make himself heard more clearly. 演讲者把嗓门提高了一点儿，以便使别人听得更清楚。 2)a little可以直接作定语修饰名词，而a bit则要在后面加of构成短语才能作定语，例如: a little water = a bit of water There is a little/a bit of food left for lunch. 午饭只能吃剩下的一点食品了。3)a bit和a little在否定句中的意思恰恰相反，not a bit相当于"not at all"(一点儿都不);not a little相当于"very(much)"或"extremely"(很、非常)。例如: She is not a bit tired.(=She is not tired at all.)她一点都不累。She is not a little tired. (=She is very tired.)她非常累。She is not a bit angry. “她一点儿也不生气。” She is not a little angry. “她很生气。”4)a bit of的另一种形式是bits of，a little则没有这种变体。例如:Besides this，he used part of an old army wireless set，and some bits of wood.除此之外，他还利用了一部分旧的军用无线电发报机的一部分零件和一些木片。5)a little， a bit可修饰形容词、副词的原级或比较级.a few不可.如：He is a little (= a bit) taller than Tom. 注：a bit还可写成a little bit， a bit of还可写成a little bit of6) 在有些词组中，few前也不加a，却不表示否定含义.如 every few weeks (“每隔几周”)，another few books (“另几本书”)quite a few译作“许多的”，等于many， quite a little / bit也译作“许多的”，等于much. Just a few / little / bit译作“就一点儿”，only a few / little / bit译作“仅仅一点儿”.7)当few， little， bit后有more时，用法为 a few more译作“另/再几个”，a little / bit more译作“另/再一点儿”.如 I want a few more bananas. Give me a little more fruit.练习题及答案：一、翻译There are a few apples on the table.  桌子上有几个苹果。  There are few apples on the table.  桌子上几乎没苹果。  Will you please turn down the radio a bit/a little?请你把收音机声音关小一点好吗？  She's a bit/a little afraid of the teacher.她有点怕老师。 Her mother feels a bit/a little better today.(比较级)她母亲今天感觉好一些。  Let's rest for a bit/a little.让我们休息一下。Tom has a little money./Tom has a bit of money.汤姆有一点钱。I want to drink a little of that drink.我想喝点那种饮料。He may need a bit of a little help. 他也许需要点帮助。 He knows a bit of a little French. 他懂一点点法语。He is not a bit worried. 他一点也不着急。 Im not a little tired. 我很累了。He was not a little angry. 他非常生气。   Please wait a little/a bit.  The weather is a bit/a little /a little bit cold. Im a bit/a little /a little bit tired.  Better drive a bit/a little /a little bit slower二、用a bit/a little 填空 1Hurry. there is_ time left. 2They still went on working, for they were not _ tired. 3.He went to sleep soon, for he was not _ tired. 4.Ive got only _ of money with me today. Im afraid I cant help you.   答案：1. a little；2. a bit；3. a little；4. a bit三、选择题1She was very happy.
