标题[国中] 2009第一次基测英语反映的问题

第20题
I heard there are many monkeys in this mountain. But I didn’t see any of
them last time when I was here.
中文说「山里有许多猴子」、「山上有许多猴子」都可以,但英语习惯上说monkeys on
this mountain,不是in this mountain。只要一查Google便可证实这点:
关於"many monkeys in this mountain" -site:tw有2项搜寻结果
(这两个例子仍是源自台湾)
约有236项符合"many monkeys on this mountain" -site:tw的查询结果
约有231项符合"many monkeys on this mountain" -site:tw -site:cn -site:jp
-site:kr的查询结果

2F:→ pop88pop88:这类型的争议也许应该用公认的英语辞典为依据比较好 07/23 16:09
3F:→ pop88pop88:毕竟网路上的东西并没有一一经过筛选认证罗 07/23 16:12
For mountains (plural), I'd use in.
For mountain (singular) I'd use on.
