{01}--- What do you think of Harry, our new roommate?
--- I am not sure, but he is always asking ______ questions and       them are very hard to answer.
A.a great many of; a great number of
B.a great many; many of
C.a great number; a great many of
D.a large amount of
E.many
解析：考查短语“许多的，大量的”表达。a great many + 可数名词的复数，不用再加of，a great number of +可数名词的复数，a large amount of+ 不可数名词，句意：你认为哈利怎么样，我们的新同事。我不能确信，但是他总是问许多问题，他们的许多很难回答。所以选B。
本题选B。
{02}He commanded that all the gates _____when it was getting dark in case thieves came in
A.were shut
B.must be shut
C.could be shut
D.be shut
解析：试题分析：考查虚拟语气：句意：他命令所有的门天黑的时候要关闭，以防小偷进来。主句的谓语是command，宾语从句的谓语是虚拟语气，谓语是should do，should可以省略，因为the gates和shut是被动关系，用be shut，选D。
考点：考查虚拟语气
本题选D。
