D. exceed by far those able to be consumed by humans     (E)

答案是E
对于exceed我有些问题为什么主谓一致不是单数形式, the amounts of 难道侧重的不是数量?就像 the number of 侧重数量所以用的是单数?

Amounts 是复数,主语和谓语一致所以要用exceed

the amount of的话就是单数了
amount 和 number有点不一样
number用来形容可数的名词(countable),在gmat里只能有the number of和a number of这两种,前者是单数,后者是复数
the amounts of 和 the amount of 的区别就在于看你是想说两堆还是一堆,这里的the amounts of suspected carcinogens 意思上应该是说不止是一种致癌物carcinogens,可能是有很多种致癌物做衡量标准,所以要用amounts表示复数,如果原来的选项里有把amount画线的话,那就要特别区分说到底句意是想说一个还是多个
