Question

—Sure. ___________ people get ___________ information from it every day.

A．A large number of; plenty of

B．The number of; a lot of

C．Lots of; a lot

D．Many a; a great deal of

Answer 1

A

考查形容词短语。a number of修饰可数名词复数形式；the number of意为：….的数量；plenty of ,a lot of 和lots of 既可以修饰可数名词也可以修饰不可数名词；a great deal of只能修饰不可数名词；many a 意为：许多，但是后面的谓语动词用单数。所以答案为A。
