Question

It is said that _______ of confirmed cases(确诊病例) in Beijing _______over 300 during the past days.

A.the number; has reached B.a number; has reached

C.the number; have reached D.a number; have reached

Answer

A

【解析】

句意：据说，在过去的几天里，北京的确诊病例数量已经超过了300例。

考查主谓一致。the number of……的数量；a number of大量，许多；has reached达到了，主语为第三人称单数形式；have reached达到了。根据句中“over 300”可知，第一空使用the number，表示“确诊病例的数量超过了300”；主语the number of confirmed cases为第三人称单数形式，所以第二空使用has reached。故选A。
