ONE vs ONES

We can use ONE to replace a countable noun in the singular and ONES to replace a countable noun in the plural because we don’t want to repeat that noun again.

为避免重复，ONE可用来代替单数可数名词，ONES用来代替复数可数名词。

◆ If you don’t want to repeat a countable noun, you can often use ONE/ONES instead. Don’t use ONE and ONES to replace an uncountable noun. And we often use ONE/ONES in combination with an adjective, THE, or demonstrative pronouns.
