360. Many a player who had been highly thought of has disappeared from the tennis scene.
譯文
很多聲望很高的選手都已經(jīng)從網(wǎng)球場上消失了。
點睛
many a后面接可數(shù)名詞的單數(shù)形式，表示“很多”。如：
He told us many a tale of adventure. 他給我們講了許多冒險故事。
be highly thought of意為“得到……的高度評價”。如：
His work is highly thought of by the critics. 他的作品得到了評論家們的高度評價。
這一被動表達的主動形式應(yīng)為think of sth./sb. (highly)。如：
I wouldn't think of disturbing them at this hour of the night. 我不能想象，這樣在深更半夜去打擾他們。
考點歸納
many一詞不僅可以作形容詞，表示“很多”，還可以有以下用法：
the many作為名詞，表示“多數(shù)人；群眾”。如：
The many fail, the one succeeds. 大眾失敗，一人成功。
a good/great many of意為“許多”。如：
A great many of students have found part-time jobs. 許多學(xué)生都找到了兼職工作。
many's the sb./sth. who/that意為“有很多的……人／事物”。如：
1) Many's the time that I saw him help her with her English. 有很多次，我看到他輔導(dǎo)她學(xué)英語。
2) Many's the road I have walked along with you. 很多路我陪你一同走過。
