A．eight thousand and four hundred and seventy-nine
B．eight thousand, four hundred, seventy-nine
C．eight thousand, four hundred and seventy-nine
D．eight thousands, four hundreds and seventy-nine
答案
答案：C
题目分析：句意：数字8,478读作八千四百七十八。数字的读数均为基数词，百和十之间用and 连接，故选C
点评：英语中没有“万”这个读数单位，要表示汉语中的“万”，英语需借用thousand一词，如“一万”用“十个千”表示(ten thousand)，“十万”用“一百个千”表示(one hundred thousand)。均用基数词表示，读数规则平时记忆好即可。
