婴幼儿服装店装修风格:此题该选什么?

来源:百度文库 编辑:杭州交通信息网 时间:2024/05/11 02:52:04
Small ________ of land ________ used for keeping animals.

A. amount; was B. amounts; were C. number;was D. numbers;were
请具体解释一下amount和number的区别,谢谢!

选B
虽然amount是用来修饰不可数名词,但它本身是个可数名词,有单复数.当large/small amounts 修饰主语时,谓语要与amount的形式一致.
在朗文现代词典上有这样一个例句:
Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.
不信你可以自己去查查,所以上面的说法都是错的.
a number of 修饰可数名词,后面的谓语用复数;
a large/small amount of 或large/small amounts of修饰不可数名词,后面的谓语与amount一致.

A.amount; was
因为land是不可数名词,amount修饰不可数名词,不可数名词后面用is,was是is的过去时

A
amount修饰不可数名词

A. amount; was

land 是不可数名词,用amount.
其后用be的单数形式.

故选A.

应该是B
