A. A number of; women
B. A number of; woman
C. The number of; women
D. The number of; woman
答案:
A. A number of; women
B. A number of; woman
(答案→)C. The number of; women
D. The number of; woman
解析:A number of若跟;一些;许多。The number of……的数目。Women是woman的复数形式。句意:他们学校的老师的数目是大约200人,他们的四分之一是女老师。如果用man/woman做定语修饰名词,在变复数形式时,必须两个名词一起都变成复数。故选C。
