Question

一道英语选择题，分析

1.The young dancers looked so charming in their beautiful clothes that we took _________ pictures of them.
A.many of B.masses of C.the number of D.a large number of
为什么选B？

Answer 1

我也觉得B,D从语法上来说都对。。

A 要改成 many
C 是 the number of sth. ……的数目是

a great/good many,
a (large, great )number of,
a great / good deal of,
a great amount of,
a large / great quantity of

表示“许多”的短语：

1)修饰可数名词：a great many, many, a good many, a (large, great )number of, (many a )

2)修饰不可数名词： much, a great / good deal of, a great amount of

3)修饰可数或不可数名词a lot of, lots of, plenty of, a large / great quantity of（谓语视名词特性而定）, quantities of（谓语用复数）

Answer 2

我觉得BD都可以

Answer 3

many直接加复数名词，不要of。the number of表示。。。。。的数量，意思不对；a number of 表示大量。D我也不知道。

Answer 4

D
