问题补充：
in China, the number of students to study art is rising a lot.
A. Compared with; choosing
B. Comparing to; to choose
C. Composing with; chosen
D. Compared to; choose
答案：
(答案→)A. Compared with; choosing
B. Comparing to; to choose
C. Composing with; chosen
D. Compared to; choose
解析：考查分词用法和固定搭配。第一空的固定搭配compared with/to…与…相比；第二空的动词choose与名词student之间构成主动关系，故使用现在分词在句中做定语来修饰students；句意：和的中国相比较，现在学习艺术的学生的数量增加很多。故A正确。
