  • 词义辨析
  • several, some
  • 这两个词都可指“几个”。several强调三个以上,有几个,但不多; some表示有一些,但数量更不明确。
  • several, various
  • 这两个词都含有“很多样”的意思。它们的区别是:
    various的意思是“各种各样的,不同的,多方面的”,强调其种类、式样和场合; several的意思是“几个,若干”,指两个以上但又不十分多的数目。例如:
    This inspiring theme has been treated in various ways.用了各种方式来处理这个鼓舞人心的主题。
    There are several kinds of homemade bicycles in the department store.在百货商店里有几种国产自行车。
  • little,few,several
  • 这几个词用作形容词时都含“少量的”之意。
    little只修饰不可数名词,含否定意义。
    few只修饰可数名词的复数形式,侧重指数量非常少,给人一种模糊概念,含否定意义。
    several修饰可数名词的复数形式,指至少有3个,但不会超过5、6个。
