请教大全885 section 3-11

11.In the most common procedure for harvesting forage crops such as alfalfa, as much as 20 percent of the leaf and small-stem material, which is the most nutritious of all the parts of the plant, shattered and fell to the ground.
(A) which is the most nutritious of all the parts of the plant, shattered and fell
(B) the most nutritious of all parts of the plant, shatter and fall
(C) the parts of the plant which were most nutritious, will shatter and fall
(D) the most nutritious parts of the plant, shatters and falls
(E) parts of the plant which are the most nutritious, have shattered and fallen
the key
我想请教这题如何判断the leaf and small-stem material是单数还是复数呀?我就将the leaf和small-stem material并列来理解,所以选了b。


另外下面是一些我自己一直很模糊的概念,刚刚在lmz书中找到答案,贴出来与大家分享。
an amount(sum)of +un.   谓语单数
quantity of+un.              谓语单数
a large sums of或quantities of+cn./un.    谓语复数
a number of+pl.  谓语复数
the number of+pl. 谓语单数
其中un.----不可数名词
cn.----可数名词
pl.-----名词复数

从意思上来判断,the leaf and small-stem material是作为一个整体来谈的,表达的是一个整体的概念.

赫赫,还是有点不理解。我做的时候认为the leaf和small-stem material是两个东东,可否帮我翻译一个这个词组?thk.

有些明白了。
as much as 20 percent of the leaf and small-stem material----shatters and falls这里的as much as 是不是就可以保证后面谓语的单数形式shatters and falls?

是不是应该说
as many as 20 percent of the apples are rotten?
谢谢指点!

ecsniffer has a very good question, i think u r right. look, leaf and stem r both singular, and material as well. furthermore, choice B is very redundant

恩,是呢,这个题可以换一个角度来想,the leaf 和small-stem material不可能是两个东东,
否则后面的那个需要冠词。

谢谢ecsniffer的启发!

还有一个疑问:
the most nutritious parts of the plant中 parts 使用了复数?为什么。

waaa, what a  good question!
1, when the author talks about harvesting, s/he refers to leaf and stem as a whole because they fall together
2, then it comes to biology, leaf and stem r, of ocurse, seperatable
