英语自学网

　　英语中纯数字的表达方法
        　　大于100的数字：
        　　101 one hundred (and ) one
        　　200 two hundred
        　　998 nine hundred ( and ) ninety-eight
        　　在英语中上面括弧中的and 一般不能省略;而在美国英语中却往往省去。请分析下面的对话：
        　　A：How many people are killed in the terrorists' attacking at America?
        　　B: That's nine hundred and ninety-eight, exactly.
        　　A: Woo, you must be joking. How can you get such an accurate number?
        　　B: Ha, ha... surely I am joking. You silly goose.
        　　大于1000的数字：
        　　1001 a/one thousand (and) one
        　　2232 two thousand two hundred (and) thirty two
        　　900,732,266,043
        　　nine hundred billion seven hundred thirty-two million two hundred sixty-six
thousand (and) forty-three
        　　英语中一千以上数字的表达方法是以三位数为单元，从高到低billion，million，thousand
而依次读出的。因此我们在听时，可以三位数三位数地记录。试比较下面的对话：
        　　A：Can you tell me exactly the numbers of the whole people in our
country?
        　　B：One billion four hundred thirty-two million two hundred sixty-six
thousand and forty three (1,432,266,43).
        　　A：Thank you very much.
