但是请注意a number of和 the number of 的用法区别

1)a number of 是“许多”的意思，修饰可数名词复数或代词，谓语动词用复数。

①A number of students in our school enjoy listening to music.

我校许多学生喜欢听音乐。

②A large number of books have been stolen from the library.

图书馆里遗失了很多书。

2)the number of 是“的数目”的意思，修饰可数名词复数，谓语动词用单数

①The number of pages in this book is two hundred.

这本书的页数是二百。

②The number of books stolen from the library is large.
