问题描述：
answer the questions 为什么不是answer the question或者answer thhese questions?
He finished answering the questions before the end of the exam.这句话中为什么不是answer the question或者answer thhese questions呢?
答
其实三个都可以的,看你句子的中文意思需要了：
answer the question: 回答问题（特指、一个）
answer the questions: 回答问题（特指、多个）
answer these quetions: 回答这些问题
He finished answering the questions before the end of the exam. 考试结束前他答完了所有题目.这里的“answering the questions”其实就相当于“answering all the questions”,考试通常不只一道题目,故用questions.
