选择题
“May I take your order now?” “We’d like three black _______ and two green _______.”
A．coffee, cups of teas
B．coffees, teas
C．cups of coffee, tea
D．cup of coffees, teas
答案
B
选B。coffee既可用作不可数名词，表示“咖啡”这种物质，也可用作可数名词，表示“一杯咖啡”，即在口语中 three coffees 就等于 three cups of coffee。同样，“三杯茶”既可说成 three cups of tea，也可说成 three teas；“三杯啤酒”既可说成 three glasses of beer，也可说成 three beers。
