e.g.He has few friends.他没有几个朋友.
They has little money.他们没有什麽钱
2.a few 与 a little 都表示肯定的意思,指“有一点,有一些”.具体区别:
(1) a few 后加可数名词复数
(2)a little 后加不可数名词单数.
e.g.I'm going to buy a few bananas.
I can speak only a little Chinese.
3.a little 与 little 也可以用作副词,表示“有点”“稍稍” 表示“很少”
e.g.----Can you speak English?

few, a few用于可数,
little, a little用于不可数。
A few, a little表示肯定意思:有一些,有一点
Few ,little表示否定意思:没有一些,没有一点
1) He has a few friends in Beijing. 他有朋友

A a little/little(形容词)用在不可数名词之前:
a little salt/little salt一点盐/没有多少盐
a few/few(形容词)用在复数名词之前:
a few people/few people有几个人/没有几个人
这四种形式也都能用做代词使用,或单独使用或与of连用:
-Sugar?
-A little,please.
-要糖吗?
-请给一点儿。
Only a few of these are any good.
这其中只有几个用得着。
B a litile,a few(形容词和代词)
a little指少量或者说话人认为少的量; a few指小数目或者说话人认为小的数目。
把only放在a little/a few之前,是为了强调说话人认为该数量的确很小。
Only a few of our customers have accounts.
我们的顾客中只有少数人是记账的。
但是把quite放在a few之前就大大增大了这个数量:
I have quite a few books on art.
我有不少关于艺术的书。(许多书)
C little和few(形容词和代词):
little和few意为很少或没有,几乎具有否定意义:
There was little time for consultation.
几乎没有时间商量。
Little is known about the side-effects of this drug.
这种药物有些什么副作用,现在还不大清楚。
Few towns have such splendid trees.
有这么好看的树木的城市不多。
little和few的这种用法主要限于书面英语(可能由于在日常会话中little和few容易被误认为是 a little/a few)。因此,在日常会话中little和few通常由hardly any替代,也可以由动词否定式+much/many替代:
We saw little.
我们没有看到什么。相当于:
We saw hadly anything./We didn′t see much.
我们几乎什么都没有看到。
Tourists come here but few stay overnight.
有游客到这里来,但很少有人过夜。相当于:
Tourists come here but hadly any stay overnight.
有游客到这里来,但几乎没有人在这里过夜。
但如果little和few由so,very,too,extremely,comparatively,relatively等词修饰,就可以较自由地使用。
fewer(比较级)也可以更自由地使用。
I′m unwilling to try a drug I know so little about.
我不乐意服我知之甚少的药。
They have too many technicians,we have too few.
他们的技术员太多,而我们的又太少。
There are fewer butterflies every year.
蝴蝶的数量每年都在减少。
D a little/little(副词)
1 a little可以:
(a)与动词连用:
It rained a little ring the night.
夜里下了一点儿雨。
They grumbled a little about having to wait.
他们为要等候抱怨了几句。
(b)与具有“令人不快的”意义的形容词和副词连用:
a little anxious有点儿着急
a little annoyed有点儿不耐烦
a little unwillingly有点儿不情愿地
a little impatiently有点儿不耐心地
(c)与形容词和副词的比较级连用:
The paper should be a little thicker.
这纸应该再厚一点儿。
Can′t you walk a little faster?
你不能走得快一点儿吗?
在(b)中可以用 rather来代替a little。 rather也可以用于比较级之前(参见第42节),但a little更常用一些。
在英语口语中a bit可以在上述例子中用以替代a little。
2 在比较正式的文体中,little主要同better或more连用:
His second suggestion was little(=not much) better than his first.
他的第二个建议比第一个好不了多少。
He was little(= not much) more than a child when his father died.
他父亲去世时,他差不多还是个孩子。
在正式的英语中,little可用在某些动词如 expect,know,sus-pect,think等之前:
He little expected to find himself in prison.
他几乎没有料到自己会进监狱。
He little thought that one day…
他几乎从不曾想过有一天……
注意像little-known和little-used这样的形容词的用法:
a little-known painter一个藉藉无名画家
a little-used footpath一条几乎没有人走的小道
