【預測精解】

1. B。由數詞加連字符號再加名詞作定語，該名詞通常用單數形式。但此句也可說成it’s only five minutes’ bus-ride.

2. A。這類“數詞+名詞”作定語，數詞和名詞都用單數形式。

3. A。dozen前面有數詞時，不能加s，后面直接接名詞，不用of。但是，當名詞前有the, these, those等時，則須加of表示部分與整體的關系。

4. C。千萬不要看到how many dozens就用two dozens，其實當它前面有基數詞時，不要加s。

5. A。tens of thousands of數以萬計。

6. B。表示“幾十年代”用“the +逢十的基數詞的復數形式”。

10. 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”。
