(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
答案: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
