Question

When the headteacher announced his plan for a spring outing，the ______ of the students in the class ______ for it.

A．majority；were

B．most；did

C．most；were

D．majority；was

Answer 1

A

most的用法通常為“most of the＋復(fù)數(shù)名詞”或“most＋復(fù)數(shù)名詞”，故排除B、C兩項(xiàng)；固定短語(yǔ)be for表示“支持，贊成”，所以答案為A項(xiàng)。注意：the majority of后跟復(fù)數(shù)名詞，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)；若the majority單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單復(fù)數(shù)皆可。
