The construction was left half done, and _______ of money were wasted.

A.large numbers ofB.a(chǎn) great deal of
C.large amountsD.masses of

C

解析試題分析:句意:建筑被剩下一半,大部分錢都被浪費了。a great deal of +不可數(shù)名詞;large amounts of+不可數(shù)名詞作主語時,謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)。large numbers of+可數(shù)名詞;masses of+可數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞。這里修飾money是不可數(shù)名詞,但是空格后已有of,故排除ABD,故選C。
考點:考查固定短語的用法。
點評:本題難度適中?疾橐恍┕潭ǘ陶Z的用法是近幾年高考的熱點,需要考生牢記一些它們的用法,會分析句子的語境進(jìn)而判斷用它們的哪種形式。還需會區(qū)分類似的短語的不同用法。
即學(xué)即練:There’re _______ of  dark  clouds  in  the  sky.
A. large numbers of      B. a great deal of
C. large amounts of      D. masses
解析:D。句意:天空布滿團(tuán)團(tuán)烏云。
