主謂一致:指的就是給出主語(yǔ),要求判斷謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是用單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)的問(wèn)題。
一、就近原則:
指句子的主語(yǔ)由兩部分單詞或短語(yǔ)構(gòu)成時(shí),由離謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞近的那部分主語(yǔ)來(lái)決定謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。
只有當(dāng)以下單詞或短語(yǔ)連接主句的兩部分時(shí)就近原則才適用:
1. or 或者; 2. either … or … 不是…就是… ,…或… ; 3. neither … nor … 既不…也不… ;
4. not only … but also … 不但…而且… ; 5. not … but … 不是…而是…
例如:主語(yǔ)1 or 主語(yǔ)2 謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。 此時(shí)由主語(yǔ)2決定謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞。
10. _C_ either he or his accountants going to claim for the loss?
A Are B Where C Is D Does
如果題目改變?yōu)椋篍ither he or his accountants ___ going … 則應(yīng)選A
二、句子謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一定用復(fù)數(shù)的兩種情況:
1. 集合名詞做主語(yǔ),集合名詞沒(méi)有復(fù)數(shù)形式,因?yàn)樗旧砭痛硪粋(gè)復(fù)數(shù)概念。
常見(jiàn)的幾個(gè)復(fù)合名詞: people 人民,人們; police 警察; cattle 牛; poultry 家禽。
2. 表示數(shù)量的復(fù)數(shù)名詞 + 不可數(shù)名詞,整體做主語(yǔ)時(shí)
例如:去年出口了八百萬(wàn)頓煤。 Eight million tons of coal were exported last year.
三、謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一定用單數(shù)的六種情況:
1. 句子的主語(yǔ)是由從句充當(dāng)?shù)摹?dòng)詞不定式短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)、動(dòng)名詞短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ);
2. 表示時(shí)間、重量、長(zhǎng)度、價(jià)值四方面的詞做主語(yǔ);
399. -- “How many days?”
0 -- “Did you say that five days _C_ required to complete that work?”
A are B were C was D is
3. 表示單數(shù)概念的主語(yǔ),短語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,此時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用單數(shù);
因?yàn)榇私Y(jié)構(gòu)中短語(yǔ)只是對(duì)主語(yǔ)提供附加說(shuō)明情況,所以謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用單數(shù)。
當(dāng)以下這些標(biāo)志性的介詞或介詞短語(yǔ)出現(xiàn)在此結(jié)構(gòu)中時(shí)可以不管中間的附加說(shuō)明情況:
with, together with, like, except, besides, in addition to, rather than, as well as
注意:表示復(fù)數(shù)概念的主語(yǔ),短語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞,此時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)。
4. each, every, either, some, any, no,由以上六個(gè)詞中任何一個(gè)所構(gòu)成的復(fù)合代詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí);
some經(jīng)常構(gòu)成的三個(gè)復(fù)合代詞:something, somebody, someone;
no經(jīng)常構(gòu)成的三個(gè)復(fù)合代詞:nothing, nobody, no one; either of + 短語(yǔ);
5. 通常由and連接兩部分這種形式做主語(yǔ)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用復(fù)數(shù),但在以下兩種情況下則應(yīng)用單數(shù);
1> and連接的兩部分指的是同一事物;
2> and連接的兩部分被no, each, every中任何一個(gè)詞修飾時(shí);
例如:每位男士和女士都要著裝得體。 be supposed to do sth. 理應(yīng),應(yīng)該做某事。
Every man and every woman is supposed to dress properly.
11. Many an airplane _B_ in the exhibition.
A are shown B has been shown C has shown D show them
many a(an) 很多,相當(dāng)于many; many a(an) + 可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),做主語(yǔ)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。
6. many a (an) + 可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),作主語(yǔ)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。
9. Not only Joan but her sisters _B_ the combination to the safe which contains the list of the family securities.
