借楼上的地方问个新问题，为什么要用some tens of thousands of?没有这个some意思不是也是很完整吗？

我觉得（愚见）主要是因为前面用了‘several millinons", "eighty", "five hundred" 的比较确起的数量词。而且“tens of thousands of" usually means "many", 一个比较笼统的概念。不过不要过于信我，我没有什么语法理论，纯凭感觉。：）

我看到some也觉得有点，既然它出现在正确答案里就记住可以这么用吧~

我想既然5个选项中有三个是有some、两个没some的，想必这样应该是判断标准之一吧，但是OG上又没有说。大家讨论讨论。
