有人问到这样一道改错题:
(1)You read different things with different speed.
有人说different speed不可数,故而不错,对吗?
不对。speed在此是一可数名词,故而上述句(1)应改作:
(2)You read different things with different speeds.
复数形式speeds并不罕见,再如:
(3)My bicycle has ten speeds .
(4)This car is capable of reaching speeds of over 110 kilometres per hour.
