 The number of people visiting the exhibition ______ 50, and a number of them ____ painters.
A.was; wasB.were; wasC.was; wereD.were; were
C

试题分析:本题第一空的主语是the number of…“…的数量”,该短语作主语的时候,谓语动词使用单数形式was。第二空前面的名词是代词them,这里的them指代people,a number of许多,大量;通常修饰可数名词复数形式,谓语动词使用复数形式were。句义:参观本次展览的人的数量是50。他们中的很多人都是艺术家。故C正确。
