---______ is the population of the town?---Over 20,000. And a third of the population ____ workers of the car factory. A．What, are B．How many , are C．What , is D．How many, is

Answer 1

A

试题分析：在英文中，对于人口有多少通常用what来提问，回答语中人口的三分之一表示的是复数概念，故be用are，故本题选A。 点评：在英文中对于人口有多少用what来进行提问，而不用how many或how much，how much对不可数名词提问，如how much water，how many对可数名词提问，如how many people，而what是单独使用，注意它们的使用和区别。
