    【答案詳解】

1. D。at the age of seventy在七十歲時；若表示“他七十幾歲時”用in his seventies。

2. D。表示“在某人幾十多歲”時，用in one’s +逢十的基數詞的復數形式。

3. D。表示在幾十年代，用the加逢十的基數詞的復數(寫作s或’s)；表示“在某人幾十多歲”時，用in one’s +逢十的基數詞的復數形式。

4. A。當hundred, thousand, million等前面有基數詞或several等修飾時，不用復數；另外，many一般不與這類詞連用，若表示許多百 / 千 / 百萬之類的意思時，用hundreds / thousands / millions of 表示。

5. A。由cave是單數可知，不選基數詞，要用序數詞；序數詞前面用the。

6. C。2 / 5是two fifths；主語含分數、百分數時，謂語動詞的數與分數、百分數后面的名詞的數一致。

7. A。dozen的用法與hundred, thousand, million等用法相同，當前面沒有基數詞時，在后面加s，同時加上of。dozens of許多。順便說一句，score與這幾個詞的的用法略有不同，前面有基數詞時，也加of。如three score of eggs(60個蛋)。

8. A。suggest和have不可接sb to do sth，排除B和C；前有several或別的基數詞時，dozen后不加s。
