问题 The fact that during the first week the takings of the circus ______not enough to cover the purchase of fodder for the animals frustrated all of us.

选项 A、being
B、is
C、was
D、were

答案D

解析 主谓一致题。在英语中,有些名词是以-ings结尾的,这类名词常作复数用。如,takings(收入),belongings(所有物),clippings(锉屑),sweepings(垃圾)等。当这类名词作主语时,其谓语部分应使用复数形式,因此可排除B 和C 。同时,由句子结构可知,be动词是同位语分句中的谓语成分,因此可排除EA]。故本题D 正确。
