Language points:
millions of 是一个常用短语,表示 “数百万计的…”,指不确切数字,而确切数字是:one, two, three等基数词+ hundred, thousand, million 或billion +可数名词复数.
e.g.
我们学校有四百名学生。
There are four hundred students in our school.
no one 意思是 “没人”, 是两个单词. no one=nobody,指人; 做主语时,谓语动词只能用单数,不能用复数. no one 后面不能接of.
e.g.
关于那件事没人告诉过我们。
No one told us about that.
none 也有 “没人” 之意,而且还有 “ 没有物” 之意, 不过是指三人或三人以上的人或物. 做主语时,其谓遇动词用单复数都可以. none一般可与 of 连用.
e.g.你们都没有完成这项工作。
None of you have finished the work.
