【帮助说明】 A plural verb is sometimes used with pair in the singular in senses 1 and 2. In informal NAmE some people use pair as a plural form:
three pair of shoes
. This is not considered correct in written English. 在第1及第2义中,pair有时以单数形式与复数动词搭配。在非正式的北美英语中,有些人把pair作为复数:three pair of shoes;在书面英语中,这种用法被认为不正确。
