The number of people in the city _____ a...

The number of people in the city _____ about seven million now.

A.is B.was C.are

 

A 【解析】 句意:现在这个城市的人口大约有七百万。 考查主谓一致。is一般现在时,主语是单数或不可数名词;was一般过去时,主语是单数或不可数名词;are一般现在时,主语是复数或第二人称单数。分析句子可知,该句主语中心词是The number of,表示“……的数目”,表示单数概念,又因为时间状语是now,所以时态是一般现在时。故选A。
