large和small

当修饰population/audience/family等集合名词以及跟amount/quantity/number连用时,习惯上用large和small。

The old lady has a large family.老太太的子女很多。

在针对large/small和high/low提问时,常用what而不用how much。

What’s the population of that town?那个城镇人口是多少?

What’s the price of the car?这辆车价格是多少?

价格只是价格,价格本身没有便宜和昂贵之分,只能说价格高低,不能按照中文习惯说价格便宜。

The price of Tesla is high.

不能说:

❌The price of Tesla is expensive.

只能说:

Tesla is expensive.
