Ben’s family ( )in the sitting-room.A.is B.are C.be
“family”一词当“家庭”讲时是单数;当作“家人”时看复数.
例如:This family is going to move to a new house.(这家要搬到新房子去了.)
My family are all fond of watching football games.(我的家人都喜欢看足球赛.)
与其用法相同的还有“committee”.
例如:The committee is made up of nine people.(该委员会由九人组成.)
The committee are divided among themselves.(委员们内部有分歧.)
另外,police、people和cattle经常被用作复数.
例如:The police are looking for your brother.(警察在找你哥哥呢.)
There are many people on the street.(街头有很多人.)
The cattle are grazing in the field.(牛在田里吃草.)
上题中,family 当“家人”讲,故B为正确答案.
希望对你有所帮助.
