Question

Dr. Peter Spence, ____ headmaster of the school, told us, “____ fifth of pupils here go to study at Oxford and Cambridge.”

A．a; A

B．不填；The

C．the; The

D．不填; A

Answer 1

D

解析试题分析：句意为：____ headmaster of the school作了Dr. Peter Spence的同位位，官职，头衔作同位语时前面要使用零冠词，故第一个空应不填；第二个空a fifth表示的意思是one fifth即五分之一的意思，故第二个空应为a.所以答案为D。
考点：考查冠词的用法。
