修饰名词作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式;(1)?一般只用来修饰可数名词复数形式的有：
agreat/goodmany,agreat/large/goodnumberof,quiteafew等。
(2)?一般只用来修饰不可数名词的有:
quitealittle,agreatdealof,alargeamountof,largeamountsof等。;(3)?既可修饰可数名词复数形式，又可修饰不可数名词的有：
plentyof,alotof,lotsof,amassof,massesof等，这时谓语动词的单复数形式取决于它们后面所接的名词的形式。
(4)alargequantityof和largequantitiesof后既可接可数名词复数形式，又可接不可数名词，这时谓语动词的单复数形式要由quantity的单复数形式来决定。;从括号内选择适当的词填空。
