The commission acknowledged that no amount of money or staff members can ensure the safety of people who live in the vicinity of a nuclear plant, but it approved the installation because it believed that all reasonable precautions had been taken.

　　(A) no amount of money or staff members

　　(B) neither vast amounts of money nor staff members

　　(C) neither vast amounts of money nor numbers of staff members

　　(D) neither vast amounts of money nor a large staff

　　(E) no matter how large the staff or how vast the amount of money

答案是d ，我选成了c vast amounts of与numbers of 为什么不可以对应呢，都表示很多啊？

numbers of 是错误用法
查阅一下 M书后面的 appendi吧~~~
有例句
此外numbers of staff members属于redundant~~~
这里应该表达的意思是 money +staff一起导致blah blah~~~
就是看修饰这两个名词能用什么
money不可数~用amount 想必没有意见
staff是集合名词，也可以用做强调” 员工“个体这个概念，这里是前者，large足够修饰staff~~再加members就是redundant~~~~

可以用numbers of 吧，括号里的：OG152. When the technique known as gene-splicing was invented in the early 1970’s, it was feared that scientists might inadvertently create an “Andromeda strain,” a microbe never before seen on Earth that might escape from the laboratory and（ kill vast numbers of） humans who would have no natural defenses against it.

numbers of一般情况是下是错误表达，amount一般修饰不可数名词
