______(数百) people were killed in the earthquake,as I have learnt from the newspaper.( )
A. Hundreds
B. Hundred of
C. Hundreds of
D. Hundreds off
题目解答
答案
C. Hundreds of
解析
本题考查hundred的正确用法。关键点在于:
- hundred表示具体数字时(如"500"),直接用单数形式,如"five hundred people";
- hundred表示泛指的大量(如"数百人"),需用复数形式hundreds of;
- hundred后接of时必须用复数形式,且不能与具体数字连用。
选项分析
- A. Hundreds:缺少of,结构不完整;
- B. Hundred of:hundred未用复数形式,错误;
- C. Hundreds of:正确形式,表示"成百上千的";
- D. Hundreds off:拼写错误(应为of)。
