英文举例中文说明

  1并列结构作主语时谓语用复数

  Reading and writing areveryimportant.

  注意:当主语由and连结时,如果它表示一个单一的概念,即指同一人或同一物时,谓语动词用单数,and 此时连接的两个词前只有一个冠词,共用一个冠词用单数,表示

  The iron andsteelindustry is very important to our life.

  The League secretary and monitor ___ asked to make a speech at the meeting.

  A. is B. was C. are D. were

  答案B. 注: 先从时态上考虑.这是过去发生的事情应用过去时,先排除A.,C..本题易误选D,因为The League secretary and monitor 好象是两个人,但仔细辨别,monitor 前没有the,在英语中,当一人兼数职时只在第一个职务前加定冠词.后面的职务用and 相连.这样本题主语为一个人,所以应选B.

  2 主谓一致中的就近原则

  当there be 句型的主语是一系列事物时,谓语应与最邻近的主语保持一致.

  There is apen,a knife and severalbooks on the desk..

  There are twenty boy-students and twenty-three girl-students in the class.

  总的来说,在由not only…but also…,not just…but…,or,either…or…,neither…nor…连接主语的句子中及在there be句型中,谓语动词的单复数按就近原则处理,即按与谓语动词最靠近的那个主语来确定谓语动词的单复数形式。如:

  Not only John but also I am going to Shanghai next week.

  Either you or she is to go.

  There is a pen,a few envelops and some paper for you.

  3 谓语动词与前面的主语一致

  当主语后面跟有with,together with,like,except,but,nolessthan,aswellas 等词引起的短语时,谓语动词与前面的主语一致.

  The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory.

  He as well as I wants to go boating.

  4 谓语需用单数

  1) 代词each和由every,some,no,any等构成的复合代词作主语,或主语中含有each,every,谓语需用单数.

  Each of us has a tape-recorder.

  There is somethingwrongwith mywatch.

  2) 当主语是一本书或一条格言时,谓语动词常用单数.

  The Arabian Night is a book known to lovers of English.

  <一千零一夜>是英语爱好者熟悉的一本好书.

  3) 表示金钱,时间.距离.价格或度量衡的复合名词作主语时,通常把这些名词看作一个整体,谓语一般用单数.(用复数也可,意思不变.)

  Three weeks was allowed for making the necessary preparations.

  Ten yuan is enough.

  5 指代意义决定谓语的单复数

  1) 在代词what,which,who,none,some,any,more,most,all等词的单复数由其指代的词的单复数决定.

  All is right. (一切顺利.)

  All are present. (所有人都到齐了.)

  2)集体名词作主语时,谓语的数要根据主语的意思来决定.如family,team,group,club,public,audience,crew,crowd,class,company,committee等词后用复数形式时,意为这个集体中的各个成员,用单数时表示该个集体.

  His familyisn't very large. 他家不是一个大家庭.

  His family are music lovers. 他的家人都是音乐爱好者.

  但集合名词people,police,cattle,poultry(家禽).militia(民兵).vermin(害虫)等在任何情况下都用复数形式.

  Are there any police around

  3)有些名词,如variety,number,population,proportion,majority 等有时看作单数,有时看作复数.

  A number of +名词复数+复数动词.

  The number of +名词复数+单数动词.

  A number of books have lent out.

  The majority of the students like English.

  6 与后接名词或代词保持一致

  1) 用half of,partof,most of,a portion of 等词引起主语时,动词通常与of后面的名词,代词保持一致.

  Most of hismoneyis spent on books.

  Most of the students are taking an active part in sports.

  2) 在一些短语,如 many a 或 more than one 所修饰的词作主语时,谓语动词多用单数形式.但由more than… of 作主语时,动词应与其后的名词或代词保持一致.

  Many a person hasreadthe novel. 许多人都读过这本书.

  More than 60 percent of the students are from the city.百分之六十多的学生都来自这个城市.

  7 the+形容词/国籍形容词。表示一类人/一国人,作主语,谓语动词用复数。

  8 the+姓氏的复数,表示一家人或两夫妇,作主语时,谓语动词用复数,
