题目内容
3.______ the teachers in the school is one hundred,and ______ of them are women teachers.( )| A. | A number of; four fifth | B. | The number of; four fifth | ||
| C. | A number of; four fifths | D. | The number of; four fifths |
分析 这个学校老师的数量是100人,其中五分之四的是女教师.
解答 答案:D.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,a number of表示"许多",相当于 many,修饰可数名词复数.作主语时,谓语动词用复数.因前半句的谓语动词is是单数,A和C是必须要排除的.英语分数,分子读坐基数词,分母读做序数词.如果分子是一,则分母直接读做序数词;如果分母大于一,则序数词要加s变成复数,4/5的正确表达应是four fifths,B应在fifth后加s.只有D两个条件都符合,故选D.
点评 本题考查the number of的用法和分数表达法,强调两点1.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.2.分数的正确表达分母大于一,则序数词要加s变成复数.
