Learning about language
Ⅰ.单项填空
1．(2014·大连高一检测)—Did you learn any foreign language when you were in college?
—Yes, more than one ________ taught at that time.
A．language was B．language were
C．language be D．languages were
答案：A more than one＋可数名词单数，表示复数的意义，但是谓语动词要用单数，故选A。
2．(2014·济宁高一检测) The students each ________ an English dictionary in our school.
A．have B．has
C．had D．are having
答案：A 考查主谓一致。句意：我们学校的每个学生都有一本英语词典。each在句中仅仅是主语the students的同位语，所以本题谓语应用复数。故选A。
3．Two thirds of his book ________ been finished so far.
A．are B．is
C．have D．has
答案：D 考查主谓一致。句意：到现在为止他已完成了这本书的三分之二。分数作主语时，谓语动词的单复数取决于分数指代的内容，此处指“书的三分之二的内容”，且时间状语so far“到目前为止”决定了本题的时态，故选D。
