Developing nations in various parts of the world have amassed $700 billion in debts; at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
(A) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is
(B) should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, are
(C) should they repudiate a significant number of these debts, are
(D) if there is a repudiation of a significant number of these debts, would be
(E) if a significant number of these debts will be repudiated, is
我的想法:a number of+复数noun 谓语用复数 选B 这题是选is 也就是A 请指正思路!

你的想法并不正确
你首先需要仔细分析句子的结构
这个句子是两个分句中间用分号隔开的,所以分号前后都必须是完整的句子。
句子A
Developing nations in various parts of the world have amassed $700 billion in debts
这句话的结构很简单,
D nations have amassed $700 billion.
句子B
at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
这句话比较复杂
首先 插入结构 should a significant number of these debts be repudiated是一个should引导的虚拟条件句,这个东西我们在课堂上其实讲到过
should虚拟条件句基本意思和if 条件句一样
Should you have any questions, you could reach me at james@beyondgmat.com.
这句话的意思是:如果你有任何问题,你可以用james@beyondgmat.com联系我。
should条件句的特点是:条件句中的谓语动词需要用动词原型,例如:
Should the material be required, you will come face to face with some really difficult problems.
如果这个材料是必需的,你将会开始面对一些非常困难的问题。
这里直接用be动词的原型be。
无论怎么说,这里的should结构实际上是一个插入的状语从句。
去掉这个插入结构,剩下的部分是 at stake is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
这句话是一个倒装结构,是一个典型的主系表结构倒装,即 表 系 主
还原之后的结构是:
the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks is at stake.
这句话里面的主语是the solvency 所以谓语部分应该是用is而不是用are
整个句子的意思是
某些世界大型跨国银行的偿还能力很脆弱
你的想法中,a number of+复数noun 谓语用复数 这个没问题,但是你忽略了一点,那就是这里的a significant number of these debts并不是主句的主语,而是should条件句的主语,这它多对应的谓语动词是be required,由于是should条件句,所以用了动词原型be。
而真正和那个is对应的主语实际上是主句的主语,就是文中的the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks,这里由于the solvency强烈的决定了主语是单数,所以用is没问题。
我希望你能够更加准确地把握句子的结构,这是你做语法题目的基石
Hope it helps

1、可以直接看“;”后面:
2、“, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated,”做插入语吧
3、“is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
”是倒状结构,因为分号后面是以at stake开头,这个不能充当主语(本人语法的叫法学的不好,原谅),is是the solvency of...的谓语。
这样应该可以理解了吧。

特别是这种倒装
呵呵 简单说 你想要强调什么就把什么放在前面去
The debts, in developing nations of various parts of the world, is up to $700 billion; at stake, should a significant number of these debts be repudiated, is the solvency of some of the world’s largest multinational banks.
The debts, in developing nations of various parts of the world, is up to $700 billion; at stake, should a significant number of these
呵呵
一开始选了A。后来才看出来at stake 是 the solvency的表语。
