(c) contains "shots that were sent by swift messenger", illogically implying that the shots themselves were sent by swift messenger. ("news" is singular, surprisingly enough)

news of these shots核心词为news，谓语动词应该用was

were应该改为was

news集合名词是单数用was

(B) 用了限定性定语从句修饰news，意思就是“信使所遣送的枪弹”，错误，应该用非限定性修饰

news- 谓语动词单数：was

which就近修饰news of these shots，记住A of B结构中强调A，所以which修饰news，又因为news是集合名词，故应该用单数was。

主谓不一致，主语是news不是shots；不是shots被sent而是news
鲜格格 2016-05-14 16:45:17
shot不能被sent,而news才是被sent的东西，既然如此应该用was而不是were
