Eg: 有很多孩子在操场上打篮球。

3、…and they do simple jobs over and over again.
1)over and over again = again and again 多次/反复地
Eg:她反复地阅读这篇文章。
She read this article over and over again.
2)over again = once again 再重复一次

Eg:三千工人种了数千颗树。

不能在它们的后面加s和of
注:有s就有of ,没有s就没有of。
例如:五百人:
five hundred people
数百人:
hundreds of people
