A. ten another nurses
B. more ten nurses
C. other ten nurses
D. another ten nurses
答案:
A. ten another nurses
B. more ten nurses
C. other ten nurses
(答案→)D. another ten nurses
解析:another, more, other修饰数词的用法区别:1) another表“另一个”时只跟可数名词单数,而表“另外的、额外的、附加的”之意时,可跟带有few或具体数字的复数名词,此时可把“数词+复数名词”看作是一个整体。2) other 表“另外的”接复数名词,如与具体数词连用,则置于数词之后,但与定冠词the连用时,other要放在数词前。3) more一般位于数词之后名词前。句意:我们没有足够的护士俩照顾病人。虽少再需要十名护士。本句中ten nurse是被修饰对象,故修饰词放在ten前面,结合语境可知选D。
