■当hundred , thousand , million , billion 和dozen 受数词或不定数量词修饰时，总是用零复数形式( 即意义上是复数，而形式上无复数标志)例句：1 . two hundred/ thousand/ million/ billion/ people2 . several hundred/ thousand/million/ billion/ people3 . They want a few hundred/ten thousand.■而当后面接of 短语时, dozen , hundred , thousand , million 等在标准英语中大都采用复数形式。例句：1 .“ Have you ever gone water-skiing before ? ”
“ Oh , yes, dozens of times.”“ 你以前滑过水吗?” “ 噢, 滑过, 滑过几十次了。”
2 . Hundreds of tree species face extinction.许许多多树种濒临灭绝。■当含义指位数时，用复数形式。例句：1. The cost ran into the thousands.成本达到千位数。2. We're talking about a figure in the low hundreds.我们谈论的是一个两三百的数字。
