主谓一致
主谓一致考查的重点：
三条原则：语法一致，意义一致和就近一致。
语法一致原则：主语为单数形式，谓语动词用单数形式；主语为复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式。意义一致原则：主语形式为单数而意义上是复数，谓语动词用复数。
主语形式为复数而意义上是单数，谓语动词用单数。
就近一致原则：在英语句子中，有时谓语动词的人称和数与最近的主语保持一致。
解题方法：
分析句子，找准句子主语，判断句子主语究竟是单数还是复数。
（一）语法一致原则
1、以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；主语为复数时，谓语动词用复数形式。
如：His father is working on the farm.
To study English well is not easy.
What he said is very important for us all.
Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes.
The children were in the classroom two hours ago.
注意：由what引导的主语从句，后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式，但若表语是复数或what 从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时，主句的谓语动词用复数形式。
如：What I bought were three English books.
What I say and do are helpful to you.
2、由连接词and或both … and连接起来的合成主语后面，要用复数形式的谓语动词。
如：She and I are classmates.
The boy and the girl were surprised when they heard the news.
Both she and he are Young Pioneers.
注意：若and所连接的两个词是指同一个人或物时，它后面的谓语动词就应用单数形式。
如：The writer and artist has come.
The writer and the artist have come.
3、主语为单数名词或代词，尽管后面跟有as well as,with, together with, along with,rather than,except, besides,but, like, unlike, including等引起的短语，谓语动词仍用单数形式；若主语为复数，谓语用复数形式。
如：Mr Green, together with his wife and children, has come to China.
Nobody but Jim and Mike was on the playground.
She, like you and Tom, is very tall.
4、
如：Many a student has seen the film. Neither story is true.
Either is correct. More than one student has seen the film.
注意：当each 放在主语后作同位语时，谓语动词用复数
如：They each have a dictionary.=Each of them has a dictionary.
Each of the footballers ___ over 150 pounds.
A. weigh
B. weighs
C. weights
D. were
(08陕西15)
—Did you go to the show last night
— boy and each girl in the area____invited.
been
been
5、由some, any, no, every+ one\thing\body 作主语，谓语动词用单数
Nothing but one desk and six chairs _______ in the room.
A. are
B. is stayed
C. is
D. has
6、在定语从句时,其谓语动词的数应与句中先行词的数一致。
注意：在“one of+复数名词+who/that/which”引导的从句结构中，关系代词who/that/which 的先行词是靠近它的复数名词而不是one ，因此，从中的动词应该是复数形式.
但是当one 之前有the\the only 等修饰语时，关系代词的先行词是one ，而不是靠近 +单数名词-----谓语单数
many a / each / every either / neither more than one each neither either +of + the+复数名词或代词-----谓语单数
+名词单数 作主语 ------谓语单数
every each no many a every each no many a +名词单数＋and+
它的复数名词，因此从句的动词应是单数形式。
如：He is one of my friends who are working hard.
He is the only one of my friends who is working hard.
7、由“a lot of, lots of, plenty of, the rest of ,the majority of + 名词”构成的短语以及由“分数或百分数+名词”构成的短语作主语，其谓语动词的数要根据短语中后面名词的数而定。
如：There are a lot of people in the classroom.
The rest of the lecture is wonderful.
50% of the students in our class are girls.
注意：1) a number of“许多”，作定语修饰复数名词，谓语用复数；
the number of“…的数量”，主语是number，谓语用单数。
2) a（great,large,good）quantity of(许多) ＋名词复数作主语时，谓语用复数。
a（great,large,good）quantity of (许多)＋不可数名词作主语时，谓语用单数。
quantities of ＋名词作主语时，不论名词是复数还是不可数，谓语一律用复数。
the quantity of +＋名词作主语时，不论名词是复数还是不可数，谓语一律用单数。
如：A great quantity of water has been polluted.
A large quantity of apples have rotted on the trees.
Quantities of food were on the table.
The quantity of books in the library is amazing.
3) an (great,good)amount of ＋不可数名词作主语时，谓语用单数。
amounts of ＋不可数名词作主语时，谓语用复数。
The amount of ＋不可数名词作主语时，谓语用单数。
Large amount s of money were spent on the bridge.
A great amount of money was spent on the bridge.
8、在倒装句中，谓语动词的数应与其后的主语一致。
如：There comes the bus.
On the wall are many pictures.
Such is the result.
Such are the facts.
（二）逻辑意义一致原则：
1、如果集体名词指的是整个集体，它的谓语动词用单数；如果它指集体的成员，其谓语动词就用复数形式。这些词有family, class, crowd, committee, audience等。
如：Class Four is on the third floor.
Class Four are unable to agree upon a monitor.
注意：people, police, cattle等名词一般都用作复数。
如：The police are looking for the lost child.
2、单复数同形的名词作主语时，谓语动词应根据意义决定单、复数。这类词包括：deer, sheep, fish, crossroads, means, headquarters, series, species.
如：A sheep is over there.
Some sheep are over there.
A crossroads is a place where roads cross.
There are several crossroads here.
3、表示“时间、距离、金钱、长度、重量”等的名词的复数作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数形式，这是由于作主语的名词在概念上是一个整体。
如：Thirty minutes is enough for the work.
4、若英语是书名、片名、格言、剧名、报名、国名等的复数形式，其谓语动词通常用单数形式。如：“The Arabian Nights”is an interesting story-book.
5、表数量的短语“one and a half”后接复数名词作主语时，其谓语动词只能用单数形式。
如：One and a half apples is left on the table.
One and a half months has passed.
6、算式中表示数目（字）的主语通常作单数看待，其谓语动词采用单数形式。
如：Twelve plus eight is twenty.
Fifty-six divided by eight is seven.
7、一些学科名词是以–ics 结尾，如：mathematics, politics, physics 以及news, works等，都属于形式上是复数的名词，实际意义为单数名词，它们作主语时，其谓语动词要用单数形式。如：The paper works was built in 1990.
I think physics isn’t easy to study.
8、trousers, glasses, clothes, shoes, 等词作主语时，谓语用复数，但如果这些名词前有a (the) pair of 等量词修饰时，谓语动词用单数。
如：My glasses are broken.
The pair of shoes under the bed is his.
9、“定冠词the + 形容词或分词”，表示某一类人时，动词用复数。
When the injured________to the hospital，they came to________.
A．was rushed; life B．were rushed; life
C．rushed; lives D．were rushed; lives
（三）就近一致原则：
1、当两个主语由or ,either … or, neither … nor, whether … or …, not only … but also连接时，谓语动词和邻近的主语一致。
如：Either the teacher or the students are our friends.
Neither they nor he is wholly right.
Is neither he nor they wholly right
2、there be句型be动词单复数取决于其后的主语。如果其后是由and连接的两个主语，则应与靠近的那个主语保持一致。
如：There are two chairs and a desk in the room..
注意：Here引导的句子用法同上。

英语语法——主谓一致（就近、就远原则） 就近原则： 也称“ 近原”“就近一致原” (Proximity），即：与靠近的名、代（有不一定是主）在“人称、数”上一致。 在正式文体中： 1. 由下列接的并列主："there be ＋句型 ; or ; either；?norr; neither?nor；whether ? or；not ? but; not only?but also"等;。e.g. ①What he does or what he says does not concern me .他的行或言都与我无关。 ②N either you nor I am wrong . 你和我都没。 ③N ot you but your father is to blame . 不是你，而是你父受。 ④Not only you but(also) he is wrong . 不你了，他也了。 2. 在倒装句中：可与后面第一个主一致。 e.g. ①In the distance was heard the clapping of hands and the shouts of the people .在，能听鼓掌声和人的呼喊声。 ②T here is (are) a pen and some books on the desk . 桌上有一支笔和几本。 II.非正式文体中： 有依“就近一致原”，但也可依“意一致原”或格地依“ 法一致原”。 e.g. Neither she nor I were there (意一致)我和他当都不在那儿。（非正式） Neither she nor I was there .（就近一致）（文同上句）（正式） 但是，如果依“就近一致原”而与其他两原相矛盾，常常是不太合符范的。e.g. No one except his own supporters agree with him .他自己的支持者同意他的意。（依“就近”和“意”一致的原；但法上，“ No one ”才是主，要改成“agrees ”。“写作中”一 般要依“ 法一致”原。 英语就近原则短语 1.There be 句型There is a book and some pencils on the desk. =There are some pencils and a book on the desk. 2.neither...nor...Neither you nor he is right. = Neither he nor you are right. 3.either...or...Either they or Jim is going to Shanghai next Saturday. = Either Jim or they are going to shanghai next Saturday. 4.not only...but also...

高中英语主谓一致知识点讲解 本文主要讲解主谓一致，并列结构作主语时谓语用复数主谓一致中的靠近原则谓语动词与前面的主语一致 等常见考点。 主谓一致是指： 1）语法形式上要一致，即单复数形式与谓语要一致。 2）意义上要一致，即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。 3）就近原则，即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语， 一般来说，不可数名词用动词单数，可数名词复数用动词复数。例如： There is much water in the thermos. 但当不可数名词前有表示数量的复数名词时，谓语动词用复数形式。例如： Ten thousand tons of coal were produced last year. 并列结构作主语时谓语用复数，例如： Reading and writing are very important. 读写很重要。 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。例如： The iron and steel industry is very important to our life. 钢铁工业对我们的生活有重要意义。 典型例题 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。

高考英语主谓一致用法全汇总 一、主谓一致的概念 主谓一致是指“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系。一般情况下，主谓之间的一致关系由以下三个原则支配： 语法一致原则、意义一致原则、就近原则。 “主谓一致”考查内容涉及名词单数或复数作主语、不可数名词作主语、不定式作主语、并列结构作主语、特殊名词作主语时与谓语动词的一致等。 二、名词作主语 01 某些集体名词，如family，team等作主语时，如果作为一个整体看待，谓语动词用单数形式，如果就其中一个个成员而言，谓语动词用复数形式。 如： His family is a happy one.他的家庭是一个幸福的家庭。 The whole family are watching TV.全家人都在看电视。 这类名词有audience，class，club，company，crew，enemy，crowd，government，group，party，public，team等。名词population一词的使用情况类似。 “a group(crowd) of+复数名词”等短语之后的谓语动词也同样可用单数或复数，前者强调整体，后者强调各个部分。
02 某些集体名词，如people，police，cattle等，只当复数看待，谓语动词必须用复数。 The police are searching for the thief.警察正在搜捕那个贼。03 单、复数同形的名词作主语时，谓语动词应根据意义决定单、复数。 如： A sheep is over there.那边有只羊。 Some sheep are over there.那边有些羊。 04 名词所有格之后的名词被省略，这种情况一般只指商店、工厂、住宅等，作主语时，动词一般用单数。 如： The doctor’s is across the street.诊所在街道的对面。 My uncle’s is not far from here.我叔叔家离这儿不远。常见的省略名词有the baker’s，the barber’s，the carpenter’s，the Zhang’s等。 表示店铺的名词，一般作集体名词看待，但用作主语时，谓语动词往往用复数。 如：
1、形式一致 主语是复数，谓语动词用复数形式 主语是单数，谓语动词用单数形式 2、语意一致 谓语动词用单数的清况 1）当名词词组中心词为表示金钱、时间、度量、距离、价格等复数名词时，把这些复数名词看作一个整体。谓语动词采用单数形式。 Twenty-five dollars is too much to pay for that shirt． Fifty minutes isn’t enough to finish this test． Ten miles seems like a long walk to me． 2 以“-s”结尾的书刊名、国名、组织名、游戏名、运动名，谓语动词用单数 以-ics结尾的名词指一门学科时，常用单数谓语动词形式。当这些名词表示实际内容时，谓语动词则用复数形式。 这类单词有：economics经济学electronics电子学 physics物理学politics政治学 mathematics数学statistics统计学 Roots was a novel about a slave family． His politics were a matter of great concern to his friend． Politics is his favorite subject． Statistics show that approximately 40 percent of all marriages in the US end in divorce． Statistics is a subject that is difficult to learn． 3) 有些表示某类别的总称的集合名词，如：machinery(机械)，clothing(衣服)，luggage(行李)，furniture(家具)，equipment(设备)，jewelry(珠宝)等作主语时，谓语动词常用单数。如：My luggage was sent by air． The equipment of our factory is all imported from Britain． 4) 不定式、现在分词和从句作主语，谓语动词通常用单数： Playing with fire is dangerous． 注意：若用and连接两个动名词、不定式短语或主语从句，表示两个不同的概念，则谓语动词用复数形式。若表示同一概念，则谓语动词用单数形式 Early to rise and early to bed is a good habit． When and where the building will be built hasn’t been decided． 主语从句要根据从句表达的意思而定 What she said is correct．What he gave me are five English books． 谓语动词用复数的情况 1）由and或both...and...连接两个单数名词作主语时，指的是复数概念，谓语动词用复数形式(不可数名词同样)。如： Fire and water do not agree． 注意如果and连接的两个词是指同一个人、同一事物或同一概念，则两个名词共用一个冠词，谓语动词必须用单数。
在英语句子里，谓语受主语支配，其动词在人称和数上必须和主语保持一致，这就叫主谓一致。主谓一致大致可归纳为三个原则，即语法一致、逻辑意义一致和就近一致。 语法一致原则 语法一致就是谓语动词和主语在单、复数形式上保持一致。 1．单数名词、代词、动词不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或主语从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；主语为复数时，谓语动词用复数形式。 ?To study French well is not easy. 学好法语不容易。 ?What he said is very important for us all. 他说的话对我们大家很重要。 【注意】由what引导的主语从句，后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式；但若表语是复数或what从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时，主句的谓语动词用复数形式。 ?What I bought were three Chinese books. 我买的是三本中文书。 ?What I say and do are helpful to you. 我所说的、所做的都对你有帮助。 2．由连接词and或both...and...连接起来的合成主语后面，谓语动词要用复数形式。 ?Both she and he are middle school students. 他和她都是中学生。 【注意】(1)若and所连接的两个词是指同一个人或事(物)时，主语后面的谓语动词就应用单数形式。 ?The writer and artist has come. 那个兼有作家和艺术家双重身份的人来了。 ?To go to bed early and to rise early is a good habit. 早睡早起是个好习惯。 (2)由and连接的并列单数主语前如果有no, each, every, more than a(an), many a(an)修饰时，其谓语动词要用单数形式。 ?No boy and no girl likes it. 男孩和女孩没有一个喜欢这个的。
（英语）英语主谓一致解题技巧及练习题 一、主谓一致 1．—What’s in the picture on the wall? —There a teacher and some students playing soccer on the playground. A．has B．are C．is D．have 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】 句意“-在墙上的照片里有什么？-一个老师和一些学生在操场上踢足球”。本题考查there be 的用法。there be不与have连用，排除A和D；there be中的be动词遵循“就近一致”原则，即与最近的a teacher保持一致，用单数is，故选C。 2．In our class _____ of the students _____ girls. A．third fifths; is B．third fifth; are C．three fifth; is D．three fifths; are 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】 句意：我们班五分之三的学生是女孩。 在英语中表示分数，分子要用基数词，分母用序数词，当分子大于一时，分母用复数形式。五分之三应该是three fifths;另外，分数+名词复数作主语的时候，后面的谓语动词应该用复数。所以选D。 3．（用在否定句中）也,而且;根本 If you don't go, I won't either. 你如不去,我也不去。 It won't do them any good, but it won't do them any harm either. 这对他们没有好处,但也没有坏处。 4．（两者之中）任何一个 I don't agree with either of you on these issues. 在这些问题上,你们两个我都不同意。 连接词 conj. 5．The rest of students in the classroom ______my classmates.

2014届高考英语临考冲刺语法讲解：非谓语动词作主语时的主谓一致 非谓语动词(主要指不定式或动名词)作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数。如： 1. 动名词作主语 Having to change trains is a small inconvenience. 换乘火车多少有些不便。 Being deaf and dumb makes communication very difficult. 又聋又哑很难与人交往。Watching the event on television was a poor substitute for actually being there. 从电视上观看那个比赛比现场观看可差远了。 Reading by artificial light is bad for the eyes. 阅读时使用人工照明会损害眼睛。Writing a dictionary is a long and difficult business but we’re getting there. 编写词典是费时费事的工作, 但我们一定能成功。 Writing a book was a more difficul t job than he’d thought. 写书这工作可比他原来想像的难得多。 2. 不定式作主语 To say you were ignorant of the rules is no excuse. 说自己不知道规则是不能成为藉口的。 How to earn daily bread by my pen was then the problem. 如何靠我的笔维持生计在当时是一难题。 To have such an easy examination paper was a gift from the gods. 碰到这样容易的考卷, 那是老天爷的恩赐。 To say you were ignorant of the rules is no excuse. 说自己不知道规则是不能成为藉口的。 To say that he was displeased is an understatement. 说他不高兴是重事轻说。 To move house requires forward planning. 要搬家得先做好计划。 To have told my secret would have given me away. 要是讲出了我的秘密就是把我自己出卖了。
主谓一致 主谓一致考查的重点： 三条原则：语法一致，意义一致和就近一致。 语法一致原则：主语为单数形式，谓语动词用单数形式；主语为复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式。意义一致原则：主语形式为单数而意义上是复数，谓语动词用复数。 主语形式为复数而意义上是单数，谓语动词用单数。 就近一致原则：在英语句子中，有时谓语动词的人称和数与最近的主语保持一致。 解题方法： 分析句子，找准句子主语，判断句子主语究竟是单数还是复数。 （一）语法一致原则 1、以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；主语为复数时，谓语动词用复数形式。 如：His father is working on the farm. To study English well is not easy. What he said is very important for us all. Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes. The children were in the classroom two hours ago. 注意：由what引导的主语从句，后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式，但若表语是复数或what 从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时，主句的谓语动词用复数形式。 如：What I bought were three English books. What I say and do are helpful to you. 2、由连接词and或both … and连接起来的合成主语后面，要用复数形式的谓语动词。 如：She and I are classmates. The boy and the girl were surprised when they heard the news. Both she and he are Young Pioneers. 注意：若and所连接的两个词是指同一个人或物时，它后面的谓语动词就应用单数形式。 如：The writer and artist has come. The writer and the artist have come. 3、主语为单数名词或代词，尽管后面跟有as well as,with, together with, along with,rather than,except, besides,but, like, unlike, including等引起的短语，谓语动词仍用单数形式；若主语为复数，谓语用复数形式。 如：Mr Green, together with his wife and children, has come to China.
主谓一致 一.概念: 主谓一致是指： 1）语法形式上要一致，即单复数形式与谓语要一致。 2）意义上要一致，即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。 3）就近原则，即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语， 一般来说，不可数名词用动词单数，可数名词复数用动词复数。例如： There is much water in the thermos. 但当不可数名词前有表示数量的复数名词时，谓语动词用复数形式。例如： Ten thousand tons of coal were produced last year. 二.相关知识点精讲 1.并列结构作主语时谓语用复数，例如： Reading and writing are very important. 读写很重要。 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。例如：The iron and steel industry is very important to our life. 典型例题 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。 2. 主谓一致中的靠近原则 1)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。例如：There is a pen, a knife and several books on the desk.。 There are twenty boy-students and twenty-three girl-students in the class. 2）当either… or… 与neither… nor，连接两个主语时，谓语动词与最邻近的主语保持一致。如果句子是由here, there引导，而主语又不止一个时，谓语通常也和最邻近的主语一致。例如： Either you or she is to go. Here is a pen, a few envelops and some paper for you. 3.谓语动词与前面的主语一致 当主语有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等词组成的短语时，谓语动词与前面的主语部分一致。例如： The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory. He as well as I wants to go boating. 4. 谓语需用单数的情况 1）代词each以及由every, some, no, any等构成的复合代词作主语时，或主语中含有each, every时, 谓语需用单数。例如： Each of us has a tape-recorder. There is something wrong with my watch. 2）当主语是一本书或一条格言时，谓语动词常用单数。例如： The Arabian Night is a book known to lovers of English. 《天方夜谭》 3）表示金钱，时间，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。例如： 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）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。例如： All is right. All are present. 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, audience, crew, crowd, class, company, committee等词后，谓语动词用复数形式时强调这个集体中的各个成员，用单数时强调该集体的整体。例如： His family isn't very large. His family are music lovers. 但集合名词people, police, cattle, poultry等在任何情况下都用复数形式。例如：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。例如： 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的情况 1）用half of, most of, none of, heaps of, lots of, plenty of 等引起主语时，谓语动词通常与of后面的名词/代词保持一致。例如： Most of his money is spent on books. Most of the students are taking an active part in sports. 2）用a portion of, a series of, a pile of, a panel of 等引起主语时，谓语动词通常用单数。例如： A series of accidents has been reported. A pile of lots was set beside the hearth. 3）如many a 或more than one 所修饰的短语作主语时，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。例如：Many a person has read the novel. More than 60 percent of the students are from the city.
