一、few/a few 与 可数名词复数
few 修饰可数名词复数(如books、students)。Few people know the truth.(几乎没人知道真相。)
a few 表示“几个”的意思,也修饰可数名词复数。A few students passed the exam.(有几个学生通过了考试。)

little 修饰不可数名词(如water、time)。There is little hope left.(希望渺茫。)
a little 表示“一点”的意思,也修饰不可数名词。I need a little time to finish.(我需要一点时间完成。)
三、变化形式的应用
few → fewer → fewest(可数名词比较级和最高级):Fewer people came this year.(今年来的人更少。)
四、特殊表达强调数量
only a few / only a little(强调数量极少):Only a few students understood the question.(只有几个学生听懂了问题。)
not a few / not a little(表示“不少”):Not a few teachers attended the meeting.(不少老师参加了会议。)He showed not a little interest in the project.(他对项目表现出极大兴趣。)
