total中文翻译是什么意思（英语重点难点精讲：all，whole，entire和total）

① all着重“整体”，或由个体组成的“全部”。

Henry's shirts all are white.

All Henry's shirts are white. 亨利的衬衣都是白的。

Henry's shirts are all white.

② whole着重“完整的”整体，无一缺少，常用来修饰单数可数名词，不可数名词或集体名词，须放在冠词（a，an，the）、单数指示代词（this，that），所有格（my，Mary's）和数词之后。

Whole that month was wasted.

That whole month was wasted. 那整整一个月都浪费掉了。

All the money has been spent. 所有的钱都花光了。

The whole money has been spent.

All the Chinese people love peace. 全体中国人都热爱和平。

The whole Chinese people love peace.

Whole the room is clean and tidy.

The whole room is clean and tidy. 整个房间都清洁整齐。

He gave his whole attention to studying plants. 他专心致志于研究植物。

the whole youth of the nation 全国青年

③ all与whole不同位置的再比较：

all the city→the whole city

all the world→the whole world

all the year→the whole year

all the morning→the whole morning

但有时含义不同：

all China 指全中国人民

the whole of China 指中国的全部领土

④ whole不可修饰代词或专有名词。

the whole it

the whole of it

the whole China

the whole of China

比较正误：

all the hour

the whole hour

all the century

the whole century

⑤ whole表示“一切的，全体的”时，一般不可同普通名词复数连用，而all则可以。

the whole desks

the whole of desks

all（of）the desks 所有的桌子

⑥ whole有时也修饰被看成一个整体的复数名词，表示“整整的”，也表示“多数”，但前面不可加定冠词。

five whole weeks 整整五个星期

whole forests 成片的森林

whole cities 多数城市

It has rained for whole five hours.

It has rained for five whole hours. 雨已经整整下了五个小时。

She stayed here for four whole days. 她在这里整整待了四天。

⑦ the whole of表示“全部的，整个的”，后可接单数名词，集体名词或不可数名词。

We have not heard the whole of the story yet. 这个故事我们还没有听完呢。

I lived here for the whole of a year. 我在这里住了整整一年。

The whole of her family was killed. 她全家都遇害了。

He left the whole of his money in the bank. 他把所有的钱都存在了银行里。（也可说 the whole of one's savings 某人的全部储蓄）

⑧ entire有“齐全无缺”之意，达到不可减少也不可增加的程度，语气比whole强。

The entire sky is clear blue. 整个天空都是湛蓝的。

She had almost never been sick during her entire life. 她一生中几乎从没病过。

I'm in entire ignorance of what he did. 我对他的所作所为一概不知。

提示

某些不可数名词前可用entire，不可用whole，但有时用两者均可。

my whole confidence

the entire/whole energy 全部精力

⑨ total指把一切都计算在内的“全部”，表示数量或程度。

The whole village was in total silence. 整个村庄一片沉寂。

What's the total population of China？中国的总人口有多少？
