The number of college students in China_ gre atly since 1990A has increased B have increased C are increased D was increased

问题描述:

The number of college students in China_ gre atly since 1990
A has increased B have increased C are increased D was increased

选A
在"the number of college students in China"中,"the number"是修饰"college students in China"的,所以主语是”the number" ,是单数,所以动词应该用第三人称单数;
"since"表示从什么时候以来,对现在有影响,是一个非常明确的完成时状语,所以要用完成时。

这里就要弄清楚句子的成分与结构了,第一个have是做定语从句来修饰students的The number of the college students 能用单数吗? the college students

A
这句话的主语是number
since是一个非常明确的时间状语 有since 必然接完成时
