thousand
★★★★★
🇺🇸 /θˈaʊzʌnd/
🇬🇧 /ˈθawz(ə)nd/
表示数字1000,也可用来表示数量达到一千的事物。
💡 记忆钩子
把它想成一捆有一千件东西的“大捆”:thousand本身就是“千、一千”,放在金额、人数等数量后面,就把小数目一下扩大成一千的规模。
📝 学习建议
- 先把thousand牢牢记成“1000”,再掌握它和million、billion的数量级区别;不要把它笼统地理解成“很多”。

core 一千;千📖 表示准确的数值1000,也就是十个一百;它像一个装满一千件东西的大捆,可用于人数、金额、距离等各种数量。💡 常见结构是“数字 + thousand + 名词”,如表示“几千美元”或“几千人”;单独表示一千时可用a thousand。thousand前面的数字通常直接放在它前面,不要再加复数词尾;表示概数时则使用thousands of加名词。The stadium can hold ten thousand people.这座体育场能容纳一万人。She saved a thousand dollars for the trip.她为这次旅行攒了一千美元。
