✔ 最佳答案
There are two apples which are green.

2007-09-16 19:34:26 補充:
因為有兩個蘋果,是眾數(plural form),所以是There are作開始。因為所指是兩個蘋果均為green,所以在連接詞which之後要用are.

2007-09-18 00:38:26 補充:
Who like eating apples? Who likes eating apples?Both are correct because " who " can act as a single form (單數) and a plural form (眾數). Therefore, it depends (視乎情況).

Eg.1 If the teacher ask the class (全班同學), she should say:Who like eating apples? 誰(咁多位)喜歡吃蘋果?(不會假定只有一人喜歡)Eg.2 If there are not many repliers, one can say:Who likes eating apples? 誰(邊一位)喜歡吃蘋果?(人少少,先假定得一人喜歡也無不可)
