单选题
Twenty miles ___ a long way to cover.
A
seem to be
B
is
C
are
D
were
答案解析
正确答案:B
解析:
这是一道主谓一致的问题。我们来分析并确定正确答案:
1. **主语分析**:题干中的主语是“Twenty miles”,这是一个表示距离的量词短语,作为整体看待,在语法上被视为单数。
2. **谓语形式**:由于主语是单数,谓语动词应与主语保持一致,即使用单数形式。
3. **时态分析**:题干描述的是一个普遍真理或事实,所以应使用一般现在时。
4. **选项分析**:
- A选项(seem to be):此形式用于表达主语“看起来像是”,但题干并未表达此意,且“seem”后应接动词原形,而“to be”是动词不定式形式,此处不适用。
- B选项(is):主语“Twenty miles”是单数,且题干描述的是一般事实,用一般现在时的单数形式“is”正确。
- C选项(are):此形式为复数动词,与单数主语“Twenty miles”不一致。
- D选项(were):此形式为一般过去时的复数动词,与题干时态和主语形式均不一致。
综上所述,正确答案是B,因为“Twenty miles”作为单数主语,在描述一般事实时,谓语动词应使用单数形式“is”。
