单词quantity的用法

答：该问题主要涉及的知识点为：quantity
与后面谓语动词单、复数搭配(即主谓一致)。但是关于quantity
与谓语单复数搭配，现在说法不统一。主要有两种观点：
1、与词形保持一致
a
quantity
of
/quantities
of
不管后面接复数还是单数(包括不可数)名词，只看quantity
本身。即：a
quantity
of
中的quantity
是单数，谓语动词就用单数；quantities
of
中quantities
是复数，谓语动词则与复数保持一致。例如：
Quantities
of
nuts
were
on
the
table.
A
quantity
of
nuts
was
on
the
table.
2、与意义保持一致
这种观点认为，不应该看a
quantity
of
/
quantities
of
本身，而应该看这个词组后面所接的是什么名词，如果后面的名词是单数(或不可数)，则谓语用单数；如果名词是复数，那么谓语用复数。这一点与a
lot
of
相同，即遵循意义一致原则。例如：
There
is
only
a
small
quantity
of
wine
left.
Great
quantities
of
sand
was
washed
down
the
hillside
by
the
rain
last
night.
A
large
quantity
of
air
conditions
have
been
sold
since
the
summer
came.
Huge
quantities
of
oil
were
shipped
to
Japan
last
year.
结论：目前，比较倾向于与quantity
的词形保持一致，即
a
quantity
of
是单数，quantities
of
是复数，而不管后面接单数或复数的名词。例如，某省一道高考题如下：
With
many
forests
being
destroyed,
huge
quantities
of
good
earth
______
each
year.
A.
is
washing
away
B.
is
being
washed
away
C.
are
washing
away
D.
are
being
washed
away
它所给的答案是D.
此题中，earth
是不可数名词，但quantities
是复数，所以谓语采用了复数形式D.
还有，这个选择题：
It’s
a
pity
that
large
quantities
of
wood
____that
way
all
over
the
world.
has
been
wasted
还是have
been
wasted，还是
has
wasted
，have
wasted
用have
been
wasted，分析：quantities是复数形式，所以have，wood
是被浪费的，要用被动语态。

quantities of和a quantity of的区别

　　quantities of和a quantity of都可以修饰可数名词和不可数名词，区别在于：
　　quantities of在修饰不可数名词，并且和后面的名词一起做主语时，谓语由它决定，也就是用复数。
　　a quantity of修饰不可数名词，并且和名词一起做主语时，谓语动词由后面的名词决定，也就是用单数。
　　例如：Quantities of energy are saved today. (今天大量的能源被节约)
　　 A quantities of energy are saved today.
