2．蘇州的人口正變得越來越多．The population of Suzhou is becoming bigger and bigger/larger and larger．

Answer 1

分析 The population of Suzhou is becoming bigger and bigger/larger and larger．

解答 答案：The population of Suzhou is becoming bigger and bigger/larger and larger．這里是說正變得，用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時(shí)am/is/are+doing，主語是蘇州的人口用of所有格The population of Suzhou是三單，故is，變得become，故is becoming，越來越…用比較級+and+比較級，這里說人口越來越多用big或者large，故 bigger and bigger/larger and larger，故答案是The population of Suzhou is becoming bigger and bigger/larger and larger．

點(diǎn)評 population是一個(gè)集合名詞，它的用法有時(shí)較為特殊，所以很容易用錯(cuò)．用法如下．
一、population常與定冠詞the連用，作主語用時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞常用第三人稱單數(shù)形式．例如：
The world's population is increasing faster and faster．全世界的人口增長得越來越快．
二、當(dāng)主語是表示\“人口的百分之幾、幾分之幾\“時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式．例如：
About seventy percent of the population in China are farmers．中國大約有百分之七十的人口是農(nóng)民．
三、有時(shí)population可用作可數(shù)名詞，其前可用不定冠詞．例如：
China has a population of about 1.3 billion．（=There is a population of about 1.3 billion in China．） 中國大約有十三億人口．
四、表示人口的\“多\“或\“少\“，不用\“much\“或\“l(fā)ittle\“，而要用\“l(fā)arge\“或\“small\“．例如：
Singapore has a small population．新加坡人口少．
五、詢問某國、某地有多少人口時(shí)，不用\“How much…\“，而用\“How large…\“；在問具體人口時(shí)用\“What…\“．例如：
-How large is the population of your hometown？你們家鄉(xiāng)有多少人口？
-What is the population of Canada？加拿大的人口有多少？
