much too与too much的用法区别
两者结构相似,很容易混淆。它们在用法上的区别是:much too=too,但前者语气更强;too much=much,但前者语气更强。比较:
1. much too的用例
He drives much too fast. 他开车开得太快了。
He’s much too young. 他太年轻了。
The shoes are much too small for me. 这鞋子我穿太小了。
90 miles an hour is much too fast. 一个钟头开90 英里太快了。
2. too much的用例
There is too much rain. 雨水太多了。
This soup tastes too much of salt. 这汤太咸。
You’re asking too much. 你要求太多。
There is too much chance of error. 出错的机会太多了。
You have given me too much. 你已经给我太多了。
He ate too much and did not take any exercise. 他吃得太多,又不运动。
前者说如此之多,后者强调多得过了,就象我们说ample 和excessive一样,ample 是足够的,excessive是多了,就象一个杯子,装满叫ample,装得已经快溢出叫excessive。这里一样,so many students表达如此多的学生,too many 表达这里没必要那么多,却来了那么多。
too many+可数名词
many too没有这个词组
