1、复习重点1.主谓一致主要遵循三个原则:语法一致、意义一致、就近一致。2.分数、百分数、不定式、动词-ing形式作主语时的主谓一致。基础知识一、主谓一致的原则主谓一致是指主语和谓语在人称和数上保持一致。一般遵循下列原则:1.语法一致原则:主语和谓语在人称和数上一致,即主语是单数形式,谓语动词也采用单数形式;主语是复数形式,谓语动词也采用复数形式。2.意义一致原则:谓语的单复数取决于主语的意义。有时主语形式上为单数,但意义上却是复数,那么谓语根据意义也用复数形式;有时主语形式上为复数,但意义上却是单数,那么谓语根据意义应用单数形式。3.就近一致原则:谓语动词的形式与邻近的主语在人称和数上一致。二、
2、主谓一致的具体应用1.名词作主语 集合名词作主语,如果表示整体概念,谓语动词用单数形式;如果强调个体,谓语动词用复数形式。常见的这类名词有:army,audience,class,family,team,crowd,staff,committee,enemy,government,population等。有些集合名词如cattle,people,police等,通常看作复数,谓语动词必须用复数。如:The team is the best in the league.单复数同形的名词作主语,应根据其意义来决定谓语形式,常见的这类名词有:deer,fish,sheep,Chinese,Japan
3、ese,means,works(工厂)等。如:There are ten sheep on the farm,but there are only four goats.表示单数概念的复形名词,如:学科(maths,physics等)、机构、书名、剧名等作主语,谓语动词通常用单数。如:Maths is one of the most important courses in the senior school.The Times is Britains oldest national daily.表示成双成对的名词作主语,谓语动词通常用复数形式,这类名词有:trouser,shoe,chops
4、tick,sunglass等。但如果其前有a pair of,a kind of等修饰时,谓语动词一般用单数。如:A pair of trousers is on the bed.当名词短语中心词为表示距离、金额、时间等的复数名词时,往往把这些复数名词看作一个整体,谓语动词用单数。如:Four thousand dollars is more than she can afford.“the+形容词或过去分词”结构作主语时,如表示一类可数的人或事物,谓语动词用复数,这类词有wounded,rich,unemployed,blind等。如:The unemployed lead a misera
5、ble life.如果主语由more than one.或many a.构成,尽管从意义上看是复数,但谓语动词通常用单数形式;在“more than+复数名词”或“more+复数名词+than one”结构之后,谓语动词通常用复数形式。如:Many a playwright is satisfied with the play.More than one person has been concerned in this.2.代词作主语由代词each,every one,no one,either,neither,another以及合成代词something,anything,nothing,
6、everything,somebody,anybody,nobody,everybody,someone,anyone,everyone作主语时,谓语动词均用单数。如:Each book was in its proper place.关系代词who,that,which等在定语从句中作主语时,其谓语动词的数应与句中的先行词的数一致。如:He is one of the students who were late this morning.He is the only one of the students who was late this morning.all,most,none,so
7、me等作主语时,其谓语动词的形式要根据它们所代替的内容来定。如:Most of his spare time was spent in reading.All of my classmates work hard.3.由连接词连接的名词或代词作主语用and或both.and.连接并列主语,如果意义为复数,谓语动词通常用复数。但由and连接的并列主语如果指的是同一个人、同一事物或同一概念,谓语动词则用单数形式,这时and后面的可数名词不带冠词。如:Both the secretary and the manager have agreed to be present.Law and order
8、means different things to people with different political opinions.当主语后跟有说明主语的修饰语,如用with,as well as,along with,rather than,together with,including,in addition to与修饰语连接时,谓语动词的人称和数与主语保持一致。如:The missing things,as well as the bag,have been found and returned to the owner.由or,either.or.,neither.nor.,not
9、only.but also.等连接的名词或代词作主语时,谓语动词要与邻近的主语相一致。如:Not only the students but also their teacher goes to the exhibition.4.数词作主语“分数或百分数+of+名词”构成的短语作主语时,谓语动词的单复数取决于of后名词的数。如:Only one third of the work was done yesterday.Thirds fourth of the students come to school on time.5.从句及非谓语动词作主语名词性从句作主语时,谓语动词通常用单数。但如果
10、是两个或两个以上的从句由and连接表示两个概念时,谓语动词用复数。另外,what从句作主语时,谓语动词的数由其表示的意义来决定。如:Whether we go camping tomorrow depends on the weather.What caused the snow slide and how many tourists are injured are still unknown.What you want is a big bag.You need not get any more stamps.What we have are quite sufficient.动词-ing形
11、式短语或动词不定式作主语时,谓语动词通常用单数。如:Smoking/To smoke is a bad habit.常见考点高考试题对主谓一致的考查重点是:名词作主语时的谓语动词形式;分数、百分数、不定式、动词-ing形式作主语时的主谓一致。从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。1.All we need _ a small piece of land where we can plant various kinds of fruit trees throughout the growing seasons of the year.A.areB.wasC.is D.were
