词组 | police |
释义 | 1.police 指“警方”或“多个警察”,不指“一个警察”,说“一个警察”该用a policeman 或a policewoman,在英国往往用a constable 或a police constable。 2.police 在指“警方”的时候前面往往有 the,如The police are investigating the matter,但也可以没有 the,如 Police were called to keep order。注意在两句里 police 都被当作复数。 3.police 在指“多个警察”的时候,前面有时有数字,有时没有。例如:Extra police were drafted into the district. 和A hundred extra police were drafted into the district. 可以说 a few police, six or seven police, twenty police, thousands of police 等,但 two police 和 three police 似乎不及 two policemen 和 three policemen 普通。 4.关于 police officer,参见 police-officer |
