HSK 7
数词+量词+抽象事物
Numeral + Measure word + Abstract thing
Explanation
The 'numeral + measure word' structure is usually used for concrete things, but can also apply to abstract things to emphasize degree or quality. Measure words like '身' (whole body), '团' (cluster, lump) are used metaphorically for a characteristic or state. For example: '一身本领' (a whole set of skills) instead of saying 'to have many skills' creates a stronger impression. This usage makes the writing vivid and expressive.
