Question

大学英语提问：1.the statistics ( )that living standards in the area

Answer 1

1、d 正确,因为statistics是名词复数.另如：Statistics show that women live longer than men.

2、a 正确,因为它的主语是并列的名词：its soil and water of its lake,rivers and oceans.

3、b 正确.因为because of 作为介词短语,其后面的宾语是个名词,不是句子,所以不能用谓语动词had come,而要用非谓语动词 coming.
