标题: 语法的大虾看过来
101. The speculative fever of the Roaring Twenties infected rich and poor alike; vast quantities of people were dangerously overextended, credit was absurdly easy to obtain, and most brokerage houses required only ten percent cash for stocks bought on “margin.”
(A) rich and poor alike; vast quantities of people were dangerously overextended
(B) both rich and poor alike; large amounts of people dangerously overextended themselves
(C) rich and poor alike; great numbers of people were dangerously overextended
(D) both rich and poor alike; vast amounts of people dangerously overextended themselves
(E) both rich and poor; great quantities of people were dangerously overextended
正确答案C除外，其他黑体字修饰部分都对么，平时都没见过的。
还有，both rich and poor 和rich and poor alike有神么区别么？

修饰可数名词GREAT NUMBERS在这儿是首选. 其他的大多见于修饰不可数名词.
BOTH... AND ... 和...ALIKE没有大不同

其他黑体的都对，此外，还有ITS NUMBERS的用法，但我也不明白，为什么要加S。
例如vast quantities的表述可以大把大把地抓。

同意楼上的说法，好象一般见过的都是a number of的表达，还有一道题是专门把numbers改为a number的。

4. Urban officials want the census to be as accurate and complete as possible for the reason that the amount of low-income people in a given area affect the distribution of about fifty billion dollars a year in federal funds.
(A) for the reason that the amount of low-income people in a given area affect
(B) for the reason because the amount of low-income people in a given area effects
(C) in that the amount of low-income people in given areas effect
(D) because the number of low-income people in a given area affects
(E) because the numbers of low-income people in given areas effects

答案是d,e中的numbers 就不对

the number of ....的数目
a number of 大量的
great numbers of 大量的

第4题指低收入人数, 所以应选D

咆哮的20年代富人和穷人同样感染了投机热情，大量人群偿债能力被危险的高估，信用难以置信的易于获取，大部分房屋买卖仅需10%的现金，股票也可使用杠杆购买
