It took them ________ time to finish the challenging task. A.a number of B.a lot C.a great deal of D.a good many 解析:选C。由被修饰词time可知,此处应该用a great deal of。a number of只修饰可数名词复数;a lot后应加介词of再接可数名词复数或不可数名词;D项后接可数名词复数。 2.________, I met the person the next day whom we had discussed at the meeting. A.By accidents B.By coincidence C.By a chance D.By mistake 解析:选B。by coincidence为固定搭配,意思是“巧合地”。by accident“偶然地”,A项中的accidents应该去掉s;by chance“碰巧;凑巧”,C项中应该去掉a;by mistake“错误地”,与题意不符。句意:真巧,第二天我就遇见了我们在会上讨论的那个人。 |
