There are a number of ways that people can use to manage money to stay out of debt and even establish savings over time. |
人们可以通过许多方式来理财,以便能够远离债务危机,甚至从长远来看积累财富。 |
 |
句子的主干是“There are a number of ways”,“that people can use to ... over time”是“that”引导的定语从句,用来修饰先行词“ways”;而定语从句中的动词不定式“to stay out of debt”和“even establish savings over time”并列表示目的。
“a number of ”意为“许多”,只能用来修饰可数名词,在使用时要注意其与“the number of”的区别,后者表示“……的数目”。 |
