population是集合名词,意为“人口”。多以单数形式出现,指某个国家、地区或城市的人口。
使用population时,需注意以下几点:
(1)若表示全部人口,单独作句子的主语时,句子的谓语动词用单数形式;若表示部分(如1/4、2/3等)人口,即“百分数/分数+of the population”作主语时,句子的谓语动词用单、复数形式均可,但用复数形式更常见。
(2)表示“某地有多少人口”有两种表达方式:
①The population of+某地+is+数词
②某地+have/has a population of+数词
(3)询问“某地有多少人”时,用“What/How large is the population of +某地?”句型。注意不能用how many或how much等提问。
(4)表示人口“多”时,population前用large修饰;表示人口“少”时,population前用small修饰。表示“一个地方的人口比另一个地方的人口多或少”时,形容词的比较级用larger或smaller。

[句式精析]
(教材P39)It was not until 9:30 a.m.that they finally reached the capital of Ontario,Toronto.
直到上午9点半,她们才终于到了安大略省的首府多伦多。
[句式分析] 本句为强调句型,强调的是“not...until...”结构。意为“直到……才……”。until后既可以接表示时间的词语,也可以接时间状语从句。强调句型的基本结构为“It is/was...that/who...”。用强调句型对not...until...进行强调时,要把not until放在一起进行强调,且应用that,故其结构为“It is/was not until...that...”。
