(2014·湖南省部分重点中学3月联考)Many a student________selected to take part in the English competition，and more than one teacher________them on speaking and writing. A．was；has coached　 B．were；have coached C．was；have coached　 D．were；has coached

Answer 1

A

考查主谓一致。句意为：许多学生被选去参加英语竞赛，不只一个老师在口语和写作方面对他们进行辅导。当many a和more than one等作定语去修饰主语的单数可数名词时，谓语动词用单数。 答案：　A
