题目

The new lab being built now is to be ____ high.
A. five-storeyed
B. five-storeys
C. five storeys
D. five-storey
题目解答
答案
C. five storeys
解析
本题考查名词复数形式与复合形容词的用法区别。关键点在于:
storey作名词时,复数形式为storeys,用于表示高度时通常与high搭配,如five storeys high;five-storey作复合形容词,修饰名词(如building)时用单数形式,不加s;- 题干中
to be ____ high的结构需要名词复数形式,而非复合形容词。
选项分析
- A. five-storeyed:错误。
storeyed是storey的形容词形式,但通常用storey本身作复合形容词。 - B. five-storeys:错误。复合形容词
five-storey后不应加s。 - C. five storeys:正确。
storeys为名词复数,与high搭配表示高度。 - D. five-storey:错误。
five-storey是复合形容词,需修饰名词(如building),而非直接修饰high。
