most与most of的用法比较
另外,在连接代词what引导的从句前也是用most of,不用most。如:
I learned most of what I know about gardening through trial and error. 我的大部分园艺知识都是通过不断摸索学到的。
4. 如果意思明确,most后所修饰的名词可以省略,但most of后所修饰的名词永远不能省略,也就是说,如果是不修饰名词而单独使用,只能用most,不用most of。如:
A few people were killed in the fire, but most were saved. 在那场火灾中,有几个人被烧死,但大部分人都得救了。
Some potatoes have been harvested, but most are still in the ground. 一些土豆已经收获了,但大多数仍然在地里。
5. most (of) …用作主语时,其谓语的数需根据它所修饰或代表的名词的数来确定。如:
Most of her books were stolen. 她的大部分书被偷走了。
Most of her money was stolen. 她的大部分钱被走偷了。
6. most与most of修饰名词时有时在含义上有差别,即前者多表示泛指,后者多表示特指。比较:
Most people like to spend Christmas at home. 多数人喜欢在家里过圣诞节。
Most of the people I know like to spend Christmas at home. 我所认识的人当中,多数人喜欢在家里过圣诞节。
