Question

many much several
到底有没有several thousand 或者several thousands of
many thousand或者many thousands of
some thousand或者some thousands of
说什么的都有
我都晕了啊
但是两个中考书可不是这么说的好像
Many ____ trees should be planted on the mountains.
A.thousand B.thousand of C.thousands D.thousands of
为什么答案要选A，而不是选D？

Answer 1

1.都有.
2.只是相互之间表达的数量上有所区别而已.
1）“several/many/some thousand + 名词（复数）”意思都是“数千...”,数量从一千到九千多不限；
2）而“several/many/some thousands of + 名词（复数）”意思都是“成千上万...”,泛指数量较多,至少一千以上.
3.楼主对这些短语区别不要太放在心上.
语法毕竟是人为的,而人看法不一,更何况是外国的东东.
楼主只要记住最广为人接受的语法规定即可,不必执着于一些细节不放.
