2、邻近的主语决定,所以答案应为表示复数的助动词。 3. Every possible method _to prevent air pollution,but the sky is still not clear. A.is usedB.are usedC.has been usedD.have been used 【答案】:Cmethod 用作名词,意为“方式,手段”,单数概念,在具体的语境中可通过其修饰语判断。该句中means前有every修饰,说明用作单数形式,可排除B、D两项;再由后面的结果看出,应用完成时表示“已经使用了”。 4. My best friend and adviser_
3、mind again. A.have changed his B.has changed their C.has changed his D.have changed their 【答案】:C当and连接的两个名词中只有前一个带有限定词a/an/the或形容词性物主代词时,表示一者具有双重身份,所以谓语动词应用单数。 5. The family_been to the Summer Palace twice, but they still want to go to. A. will haveB.hasC.haveD.had 【答案】:C首先根据they still want to go to
4、看出是到现在为止“去过两次”,应排除时态错误的A、D两项;从“去过颐和园”以及后面的they看出,该句中的family不是指“家庭”这个单位,而是指“全家人”这个概念,所以谓语应用复数。 6. Many a student in our class _been to Beijing. A. haveB.hasC.areD.is 【答案】:B“many a + 单数名词”虽然表示复数意义,但句子的主语为单数,所以谓语应用单数形式。 7. _Mary _ Sue knows nothing about the matter, _they didnt come to school yesterday
5、. A.Either;or;becauseB.Both;and;as C.Neither;nor;sinceD.Not only;but;for 【答案】:Dboth.and.连接并列主语时,谓语应用复数,由第二个空后的knows可知B项错误;从后面的原因知道昨天他们没来上学,其结果当然是对那事一无所知,因此答案为D项。 8. The class _ doing experiments on heat and light in the laboratory, and this afternoon this class_going to have its picture taken. A. is
6、; isB.is; areC.are; isD.are; are 【答案】:C从句意看,做实验的应该是班里的学生,所以第一个空用复数;第二个空后的its说明是指整个班集体,所以第二个空用单数。全句意为“同学们在实验室里在做一个关于光和热的实验,今天下午这个班要让人拍集体照”。 9. It is I who_on duty today. A. isB.amC.areD.be 【答案】:B该句为强调句型,强调了主语I。强调句型是把被强调部分置于“it is/was.that/who.”中,其余部分不变,如果将该题还原为I on duty today.,就很容易得出正确答案。 10. _want t
7、o go away for summer vacation. A.Neither Mary nor her brother B.Either Father or mother C.Neither Mary nor her classmates D.Not only they but also their English teacher 【答案】:Cneither.nor./either.or./not only.but also.连接并列主语时,谓语动词采取“就近”原则同后面的主语保持一致,该句谓语为want,由此可知只有C项的her classmates能与之一致,答案为C项。 11. “A
8、ll_present and all _going on well,”said our monitor. A.is; isB.are; areC.are; isD.is; are 【答案】:Call作主语时,如果指可数名词,谓语用复数;如果指不可数名词或不明确时,谓语用单数。第一个空后的present表示“到场”,应该是说明“人”的,所以第一个空用复数;第二个空后表示“进展顺利”,是笼统地说明事情的,所以第二个空应用单数。 12. Cattle_on the hillside. A.grazesB.is grazingC.was grazingD.were grazing 【答案】:Dcatt
9、le为“牛”的总称,是复数形式,所以答案为D项。 13. Getting to other planets or to the moon_many problems. A.involveB.involvesC.involvingD.to involve 【答案】:B该题需要谓语,可排除C、D两项;由于主语为动名词短语,所以谓语应用单数形式。 14. The committee_over the problem among themselves for two hours. A.has argued B.has been arguing C.have argued D.have been arg
10、uing 【答案】:Dcommittee为集合名词。看作整体表示“委员会”时,谓语用单数;看作个体表示“委员会的成员”时,谓语用复数。argue意为“辩论,争执”,其执行者肯定是“人”,并且后面的themselves也暗示谓语用复数;分析句意可知,他们还在争论,所以用现在完成时不妥,而用现在完成进行时表示“一直在争论”。 15. She is one of the few girls who_in the kindergarten. A.is well paid B.are well paid C.is paying well D.are paying well 【答案】:B由于先行词为复数名
11、词girls,所以定语从句的谓语应用复数形式,并且根据句意分析,该句中girls与pay为被动关系,所以应选are well paid。 16. As a result of destroying the forests,a large _of desert _ covered the land. A.number;has B.quantity;has C.number;have D.quantity;have 【答案】:Ba large number of只能修饰可数名词复数,a large quantity of既可修饰可数名词复数,也可修饰不可数名词,由于desert是不可数名词,所以第
12、一个空应选quantity;因为主语为不可数名词desert,第二个空的谓语应用单数形式。 17. The Philippines_to the south-east of China. A.liesB.lieC.layD.lays 【答案】:Alie意为“位于”;lay意为“放置;产卵”,根据句意可排除C、D两项;The Philippines指的是“菲律宾”这个国家,是一个整体,为单数,所以答案为A项。 18. None of them_my friends. A.isB.areC.wasD.has been 【答案】:Bnone作主语,指不可数的事物时为单数形式,指可数的事物时既可以为单
13、数形式又可以为复数形式。该句中none指的是“人”,但为了和表语my friends保持一致,谓语需用复数形式。 19. Every man,woman and child_some history,enough at least,to survive in the world. A.knowsB.knowC.is knownD.are known 【答案】:A当并列的主语由every或each修饰时,谓语须用单数形式。 20. In our school,many a boy_playing football and more girls than one_playing it. A.likes;likesB.like;like C.like;likesD.likes;like 【答案】:D“many a+单数可数名词”作主语时,后面应跟单数谓语动词;“more+复数名词+than one”作主语时,后面应跟复数谓语动词。
