Question

【题目】A tsunami(海啸) _____ in some southern Asian countries in December, 2004. As a result, _____ homeless people had to stay in the open air.

A. has happened/ thousands of

B. happened/ thousands of

C. has happened/ about twelve thousand of

D. happened/ twelve thousands

Answer 1

【答案】B

【解析】

试题分析：句意：2004年12月在亚洲南部的一些国家发生了海啸。成千上万的无家可归的人们不得不呆在户外。根据句中有in December, 2004应用于一般过去时，排除A；thousand前面有具体的数字，应该用单数，不能和of连用，排除C和D；thousands of成千上万。故选B。
