London has a population of ten million.
伦敦有一千万人口。
为什么一千万人口还用单数啊?
这里是population和million是不是都应该用复数啊?

因为 a population of 是固定搭配,表示人口是多少

millions of 解释为“数以百万”的.

但是,如果具体地说出二百万、五百万等,则 million 后没有 s ,也不用 of:

例如:two million smokers.

高考题

1. __ people in the world are sending information by E-mail every day. (2001 上海)

(A.)

2. Shortly after the accident, two __ police were sent to the spot to keep order. (MET. 1992)

A. dozen of B. dozens C. dozen D. dozens of

a population 怎么会是单数呢? a city, a country

ten million 规定是用单数, 用复数时是 "millions of", "thousands of" 等等
