知识点解析
在英语的世界里，我们「人」也是有多个单词来表示的。（是不是很无奈？）
其中常见的几个分别是：person / people / human
你能流利的说出他们的区别吗？不能的话，我们就一起来看看咯~
• person
这个指单个的人，强调个体的人。比如：
Who is that person?
那个人是谁？
How many persons are there in your family?
你家有几口人？
• people
意思是人、人们，表示复数含义，强调人群；如果前面加了定冠词the，表示人民；如果看到复数形式，则是表示民族。
Millions of people have lost their homes.
数百万人流离失所。
We must be honest and faithful to the people.
我们对人民必须忠诚老实。

• human
