Grammar in Use
1. Some....
Others....
Some + N.... Others/Other + N.... |
本句型在介紹不定代名詞Some.... Others....的用法,Some.... Others....用於提到沒有特定範圍的人或物時,意指「有些……。有些……。」,others相當於「other + 複數名詞」。此句型亦可用Some.... Some....取代,但some後面接可數或不可數名詞均可,而other之後只可以接可數名詞。例:
‧Some people like the
movie, while others/some (= other people/some people) don’t.
‧Some water is for drinking,
and some is for washing. (第二個some不可用others取代)
此外,如果是用some of...的話,後面就要用the others...,用於指特定範圍的人或事物,表示「其中一些…… 其餘……」。此處的the others相當於the rest,指的是「特定範圍中剩餘的部分」。例:
‧Some of the people in the group like the movie, but the others (= the
rest) don’t.
