4. The population of China is about 1.37 billion.

英语分数的表示法: 用“基数词+序数词”表示,分子用基数词,分母用序数词。分子除用one外,也可用a;如果分子大于1,分母要用复数形式。
Two thirds of the students have passed the exam. 三分之二的学生考试及格了。
注意:1/2不能说a(one)second,而要说a(one)half。
1/4和3/4可以说a(one)fourth和three fourths,但常用a quarter和three quarters表示。
若它们在句子中作主语,则谓语动词是用单数还是复数取决于名词,即与分数所修饰的名词保持一致。
About two thirds of the students attend the meeting.
大约2/3的学生都参加了会议。
6. Hang on a minute!
通常用来表示让某人等一下。
e.g. Hang on! I’ll be back in a minute.
朗读时,将每三位数看做一个单位,依次为billion,million,thousand。每个单位按照百、十、个位向下读,其中百位到十位之间要加入 and。
e.g. 729 :seven hundred and twenty nine.
6,500,431,729:six billion five hundred
million four hundred and thirty one
thousand seven hundred and twenty nine.
在英语中,对于万以上的数字,我们改如何表达呢?这就要记住英语数字读法特点。以下面一个数字为例:
6,500,431,729
hundred
thousand
million
billion
注意每三个数为一个单位,按照百、
十、个向下读。
