一道简单高中英语题(请进!请详细说明!谢谢!) In order to support the sports meeting and gain some social experience ,_______has signed up for it to act as volunteers. A a large number of college students B the number of college students C many a college student D large quantities of college students
答案选择C. 从句意来看,应该表示“ ... ,许多学生报名做志愿者.”表达“许多”概念的用法中A和D都是可以的,但是本题关键是后半句的谓语动词是has(单数),而a large number of和large quantities of 后面的谓语动词都应该用复数动词(have),所以不能选. “many a + 名词”这个结构表达的含义也是“许多”,是书面语的用法,这个结构特殊在many a + 单数名词 + 动词的单数形式,但含义却是复数含义.因此,只有C是正确的答案.
