too much,too many,much too 这三个词组都含有单词too,它们从外形上看非常相似,但是表达的意思和在句子里的用法却完全不一样。下面,我们一起来看一下如何准确区分它们吧!
1.too much
(1)后面跟不可数名词,表示“太多……”,如:
too much money 太多钱 too much water 太多水
(2)放在动词后面,修饰动词,表示“……得太多”,如:
talk too much 说得太多 eat too much 吃得太多
2.too many
后面跟名词复数形式,表示“太多……”,如:
too many boys 太多男孩 too many pens 太多钢笔
3.much too
用来修饰形容词或副词,加强语气,表示“太/非常……”,如:
much too hot 太热了 much too happy 太开心了
最后,我们用两个句子来加强对三个词组的理解:
He is much too happy because he has too many friends.他太开心了,因为他有太多的朋友。
He talked too much but he didn’t drink too much water.他说得太多,但喝的水不多。
