若表示水果种类,则是可数的'.如:
The mango is a tropical fruit.芒果是种热带水果.
The tree bears a red hard fruit.这种树结一种红色坚硬的果实.
但有时到底是表示总称还是种类,完全取决于具体的语境,有时两种情况都说得通.如:
The country exports tropical fruit(s).该国出口热带水果.
2.表示“几种(多种、各种)水果”时,可直接说 some (many,various) fruits,也可用 some (many,various) kinds of fruit(后者通常用不用复数).如:
Some [Some kinds of] fruits don’t freeze well at all.有些水果根本就不能冷藏.
They sell various [various kinds of] fruits at that shop.那个商店卖各种水果.
