请问rest作名词“休息”时,它可以不加冠词吗?
如这句——He has come a long way, and now he wants rest and food.
rest不加冠词是不是有误?
He has come a long way, and now he wants rest and food.
这句话没错误。说 wants a rest 也没错误,指“一次休息” (让“休息的动作具体化”)。
名词 rest 是一个“可变名词”,即:可数不可数均可。
If you get somerestor have arest, you do not do anything active for a time. 休息
以下例句为不可数使用方法。如:
Youre worn out, Laura, he said. Go home and get some rest.
“你太累了,劳拉,”他说。“回家休息一下吧。”
