The amount of ice sold increases sharply in the summer months.
因为ice sold是不可数名词，用amount来形容不可数名词的数量；number形容可数名词的数量。
不可数名词主要有paper纸、water水、music音乐、advice建议、work工作、money钱、time时间、exercise锻炼、food食物、fish鱼、information信息、rice米饭、snow雪等。
英语中形容不可数名词的数量词有：little/a little/lots of/a lot of/much/a great deal of/a quantity of/quantities of/a mount of /mounts of/ a bit/a cup/bottle/bag。
扩展资料
可数名词和不可数名词并不是一成不变的。英文中的很多词都是一词多义，名词也不例外，同是一个词在一种情况下是可数名词，而在另一种场合却是不可数名词。
可数名词： a tin 一只罐头；a relation 亲属；an iron 一把熨斗；a democracy 民主国家；a glass 一只玻璃杯；a beauty美人，美的东西；A wood 一片树林。
不可数名词： tin 锡；relation 关系；Iron 铁；democracy 民主；glass 玻璃；beauty 美；Wood 木头。
另外，在很多情况下抽象名词可变成可数名词，而可数名词在一定情况下也可以抽象化，变成不可数名词。例如：
Would you like some coffee.（不可数）喝点咖啡好吗？
Let me have a coffee.（可数）给我一杯咖啡吧。
He got in difficulty again.（不可数）他又有困难了。
They met with many difficulties.（可数）他们遇到很多困难。
