One-third of the country ________ covered with trees and the majority of the citizens _______ black people.

A．is; are

B．is; is

C．are; are

D．are; is

答案

A

解析

试题分析：考查主谓一致：句意：这个国家三分之一都是被树覆盖着，大部分居民是黑人。第一空的主语One-third of the country，当主语是分数的时候，谓语和分数修饰的名词一致，这里是和the country一致，谓语是单数，第二空的主语是the majority of the citizens还是和名词一致，用复数，选A。
点评：主谓一致的考点较多，要在理解的基础上加以记忆，多练习加以巩固。这里的单复数同形的单词一定要看修饰词来判断。分数，the majority of，The rest，half，most等词修饰名词的谓语和名词一致。
