Question

一堆的英文

Answer 1

一堆的英文是a pile of。

“a pile of+复数名词”作主语时，谓语动词可以用单数（视为整体），也可以用复数（考虑其个体），但以用单数为普通。

用单数的例子：On the table was a pile of books and a scatter of papers.桌子上放着一摞书和零落的几份报纸。

用复数的例子：A pile of presents were heaped under the Christmas tree.圣诞树下有一大堆礼物。当然，如果a pile of后接不可数名词，它作主语时，谓语动词只能用单数。

1、There was a pile of clean laundry on her bed.她床上有一堆刚洗好的衣物。

2、A pile of ironing is hardly inspiring.一堆需要熨烫的衣服无法让人提起兴致。

3、Heaped up in one corner was a pile of junk.堆在一角的是一堆废物。
