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

答案给的是C，这样rich and poor alike表达是固定搭配吗？还是有其他原因？

可以搜索一下以前的帖子，投身于挺清楚的。

请问楼上的你确认吗？quantity of 只可修饰“不可数”名词？谢谢！

另外请教两点：

1. 这里为什么不用the rich and the poor，而直接可以用rich and poor?

2. alike 的用法。

谢谢！

rich and poor alike这是什么意思,同时quantity of 只可修饰“不可数”名词？我怎么记得修饰单复都是可以的.

up (A)(E) 真的是因為quantity的關係嗎，如果是的話quantity的用法為何?
