' P' R5 d0 |! s ^. F$ {$ N1 ~有位坛友发了一个帖子“看到一个 a+复数 的句子,有点不解” (https://www.pdawiki.com/forum/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=31035&pid=1019424&page=1&extra=),“will be taking an incredible three and a half strideS per second”。已经在原贴下作了解答,因为这个现象与一般的语法教材的说法相悖(未讨论到),但又常可发现,故此专发一贴,以资参考。5 {" |' L5 r% H( V5 ?

a good twenty/three... 与上列其他的例子又有所不同,其中的good是个强调词(又如 a good many... 参见nice), 其后的名词前面仍可以有形容词,例如上举第二例。good表示强调、惊叹的意思,而后面的数词和形容词才是“强调、惊叹“的原因。
