In that train accident, _____ who were killed was more than 2000.
A.a number of peopleB.the number of people
C.many peopleD.a large number people
B

试题分析:考查主谓一致。本题的谓语动词是was,说明主语是单数。AC项都是复数形式。没有a number的结构,所以D项也错误。The number of…指“…的数量”,做主语,谓语用单数形式。句意:在那次火车事故中,被杀死的人的数量超过了2000.故B正确。
点评:The number of…指“…的数量”,做主语,谓语用单数形式。A number of做主语,谓语动词用复数形式。
