The number of people invited ______ fifty, but a number of them ______ absent(缺席) for different reasons.
A.were; wasB.was; wasC.was; wereD.were; were
C

試題分析:句意:受到邀請(qǐng)的人數(shù)是五十,但是很多人因?yàn)楦鞣N各樣的原因而缺席。The number of表示“的數(shù)量”,其主語(yǔ)為數(shù)目,所以后面的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,而a number of them表示“大量,許多”,后面修飾可數(shù)名詞的復(fù)數(shù),后面的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用復(fù)數(shù)形式;故選C。
