Usage Note : Hair can be both a count and an uncount noun. When you are describing people, you usually use the uncount sense. She has long blonde hair and blue eyes. ...the girl with red hair and freckles. However, when you particularly want to refer to one or several of the individual strands that grow from your head or body, you can use the count sense. There were some blonde hairs in the car... a single fibre thinner than a hair. hair 既可作可数名词,又可作不可数名词。用来描述人时,通常取不可数名词的意思,如:She has long blonde hair and blue eyes(她有着长长的金发和蓝色的眼睛),the girl with red hair and freckles(一头红发面带雀斑的女孩)。但如果要特指头上或身上的某一缕或几缕毛发,就取可数名词的意思,如:There were some blonde hairs in the car(车里有几根金发),a single fibre thinner than a hair(一根比头发丝还要细的纤维)。 5 [PHRASE 短语]彻底放松;玩个痛快;无拘无束 If you let your hair down, you relax completely and enjoy yourself.
