想说明“不一样”这个特点,就用单数,因为是不可数
想说明“不相同的地方,不同点”这些可以数出来的就可以使用复数了.
There are many differences between the two languages,There is a difference between the two watches.Are there some differences between the students?
很多因为单词都有相似的用法
difference什么时候用复数
一、当difference 表示"差异,差别"是可数名词:
There are many differences between living in a city and living in the country.生活在城市和生活在乡村有许多不同之处.
二、当difference 表示"差额,差数"是不可数名词:
The difference between 5 and 11 is 6.十一和五的差是六.
Flowers make no/a lot of difference to a room. 一个房间里有没有鲜花没有/有很大差别.
三、当difference 表示"不和,分歧"是可数名词:
They've settled their differences and are friends again.他们已消除芥蒂,重归于好.
make a difference,因为这里的difference 表示"差额,差数",是不可数名词,所以用a。
