应该是 number和number的对比~~

以下是manhattan里提到的those等这类词的用法:

The Demonstrative Pronouns are this, that, these, and those. You may use any of these pronouns
as adjectives in front of nouns, as we have already seen.

for example:New "nano-papers" incorporate fibers that give THESE MATERIALS strength.

You may also use that or those to indicate a "New Copy" or copies of the antecedent.

for example:The money spent by her parents is less than that spent by her children.
