选项 A、number
B、members
C、bodies
D、relations
答案 A
解析 语义衔接题。one of their number意为“他们当中的一个”，其中number意为“(人或单位的)总和、全体”，故A)number为答案。B)members为强干扰项，其意为“……的成员”时，侧重“个体”，而number侧重于“全体、整体”。body意为“团体，群体”时，一般用单数形式，常用body of的形式，故排除C)。D)relations意为“亲戚”，可以同one of．．．结构连用，但此处泛泛而谈美国黑人的葬礼风俗，而不是谈美国黑人家族中的丧葬习俗，死者并不一定是参加葬礼者的亲戚，故排除D)。
