Entering the room, the headmaster said, “Everyone _ quiet, please.” A. keep B. keeps C. is keeping D. to keep,A 此题容易误选B,因为主语 everyone通常被视为第三人称单数,所以其后谓语用 keeps。但事实上,最佳答案应是A,注意句末的 please,它表明此直接引语为祈使句,只不过该祈使句带上 everyone 这个主语。既然是祈使句,所以动词用原形,即选A。,2. In fact, _ one cause that leads to the problem. A. cattle is B. cattle are C. cattles are D. the cattles are,B 从表面上看,此题似乎应选A,其实,正确答案为B。cattle (牲畜,牛)为集合名词,用作复数意义,但不用于复数形式(即不加复数词尾s),若用作主语,谓语要用复数。,3. More than one student _ read the novels, which _ written by David. A. has; was B. have; were C. has; were D. have; was,C 此题容易误选B,其实最佳答案为C。more than one student (不止一个学生) 从形式上看是单数,但从意义上却是复数,它用作主语时,英语习惯上让其谓语与该主语的形式(而不是意义)保持一致,即用单数谓语。至于第二空要用复数,因为which指的是novels,故谓语用were。,同学们,来学校和回家的路上要注意安全,同学们,来学校和回家的路上要注意安全,
