Unit 2
在这句话中,a bit 可换成 a little,意思是“稍微;有点儿”。修饰动词、形容词、副词或比较级时二者可以互换。
Please wait a little / a bit.
请等一下。
These trousers are a bit tight.
这条裤子有点儿紧。
1. …, I felt a bit unhappy with them.
不同点:
二者都可以修饰不可数名词, 但是a little 可直接用于名词前作定语,而 a bit 却不能,它用于名词之 前时应先接介词 of。如:
He knows a bit of / a little French.
他懂一点点法语。
2) 在否定结构中, not a little = very
not a bit = not at all(一点也不)
I’m not a little tired. 我很累了
He is not a bit worried. 他一点也不着急。
