Actually, person and people are used in different context although sometimes (in few cases) these two words are interchangeable.
Person: a human being as an individual
People: plural form of person (but, formally, we use persons instead of people)
e.g.
1. At least 10 people were killed in the crash (in this case, we can't use person as this sentence is trying to say that 10 human beings are killed, which is plural)
2. He doesn't care what people think of him. (we can't use person here because the 'people' here means persons in general or everyone)
3. He's just the person we need for the job. (we can only use person in this context as it's trying to point the 'he' as an individual)
We use only 'how many people' but not 'how many person'. This is because of the 'many' which means plural, not singular. We may also use 'how many persons'.

someone who is an inspiration to you is someone who inspires you to become better, someone who did something that makes you wanna improve or strive for success. So, you can just choose a person and describe him/her then tell what he/she did to inspire you. |

describe someone who is an inspiration in your life.
形容一个在你生命里给予你引导(或给予你灵感的)的人。
大概就是说形容一个对你很有正面影响的人。
Inspiration这个字很难翻译啦~~ |
