Question

6．我们班女生的数量仅为男生的三分之一．
The number of the girls is only one third of that of the boys in our class．．

Answer 1

分析 The number of the girls is only one third of that of the boys in our class．

解答 答案：The number of the girls is only one third of that of the boys in our class．表达的是客观事实用一般现在时，…的数量，the number of，后接复数名词，用作主语时，谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式；仅仅，only；三分之一，one third．that替代上文的the number of，故答案是The number of the girls is only one third of that of the boys in our class．

点评 the number of表示"…的数量"，跟复数名词连用作主语时，中心词是number，谓语动词要用单数．例如：
The number of students in our class is50．我们班学生的数量是50人．
The number of pages in this book is 60．这本书有60页．
