问题 Two-thirds of his property ______ lost in the fire.

选项 A、were
B、are
C、had been
D、was

答案D

解析 考点为谓语动词的数。如何决定分数或百分数作主语的数?一般根据意义一致的原则来决定谓语动词的单复数形式。若分数或百分数后跟的of属格中的名词或代名词是单数,动词用单数形式。反之,动词用复数形式。请观察下列例子:Three fourths of its surface of the earth is sea.(地球四分之三的面积是海洋。)It is said that 35 percent of the doctors are women.(据说百分之三十五的医生是妇女。)
