amount/number     

【问】 Two waterfalls within the city limits supply Rochester,New York,with an enormous number of electric power. (TOEFL,82.11)

我没有看出句中的错误。请分析。

【答】 虽然an enormous number of与an enormous amount都表示“大量的”,但是前者只能与可数名词连用,而后者只能与不可数名词连用。electric power为不可数名词,所以,必须与anenormous amount连用。the number of与the amount of的区别亦是如此。

2. The number of competitors is limited. (Cameron)

竞争者的数目有限。

3. I had not expected such an amount of praise. (Davies)
