2013年浙江中考第一轮复习
第九讲 主谓一致和倒装句
1．(2012·绥化)A number of students ________ playing on the playground，and the number of students in our school ________ increasing.
A．are；are B．is；are C．are；is
解析：考查主谓一致。a number of...作主语时，对应的be动词要用are；the number of...作主语时，对应的be动词要用is。
答案：C
2．—David，there ________a dictionary and some books on your desk.Please put them away.
—OK.Mum.I'll do it right away.
A．is B．are C．has D．have
解析：考查主谓一致。there be句型中若there be后列举了一系列人或事物，be动词形式要根据就近原则来确定，因句中there be后的第一个名词dictionary是单数，故选A。
答案：A
3．(2012·孝感)—A number of volunteers________ willing to teach in China's rural areas.
—Yes, the number is getting________.
A．is; bigger and bigger B．are; bigger and bigger
