5. When and where to build the new factory______ yet.
A. is not decided B. are not decided C. has not decided D. have not decided
答:A。从句、不定式、动名词做主语时,谓语动词常用单数形式,如where and when we’ll hold the meeting has not been decided yet。虽然是两个疑问词并列,但指开会这一件事,故用单数谓浯。若指两件事时,谓语应用复数。如What he did and what he said were different.。他所做的和他所说的是不一致的。从句做主语时,谓语一般用单数形式,但当what从句做主语时应根据其意思来决定。如:
What we need are some engineers. 我们需要的是一些工程师。
What we need is an English interpreter. 我们需要一位英语翻译。
