people were found after the Wenchuang earthquake.| A．A number of; died | B．The number of; died | | C．A number of; dead | D．The number of; dead |

答案
| C |
解析
a number of与the number of，
它们修饰名词作主语时，谓语的数是不一样的。
（1）a number of为量词短语，表示“许多……”，中心词是这个短语所修饰的复数名词，所以作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
（2）the number of表示“……的数量”，中心词为number，指的是of后边名词的数量，数量是个抽象概念，因此谓语动词用单数。 |
