同学好,
最可靠的办法是查字典,助教也是按照字典为同学解答的,
service, satisfation, supply, care, expectation, requirement 这些都是表示概念的抽象名词,一般为不可数,但是前面有具体形容词修饰时,形容词前可以加a;有的词直接加s表示复数。
service
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/service
1.1count noun An act of assistance.
‘he has done us a great service’
expectation
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/thesaurus/expectation
3‘a young man of expensive habits and no expectations’
supply
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/supply
‘he meant to go, but time and petrol were in short supply’这种固定搭配in short supply就没有a, 所以有规则就有例外。(没有永远不变的规则。)
care
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/care
加a和不加a的情况都有。
‘he planned his departure with great care’
‘she was driving along without a care in the world’
requirement
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/requirement
‘applicants must satisfy the normal entry requirements’
同学在字典上或权威英语网站上看到了,就可以放心用,没见到,就先别用,此规则同样适用于其他中国特色名词翻译。
祝进步。
