第一篇:高中英語(yǔ)主謂一致
高中英語(yǔ)主謂一致
一)主謂一致的種類
1.語(yǔ)法形式上的一致
主語(yǔ)為單數(shù)形式,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式;主語(yǔ)為復(fù)數(shù)形式,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: The number of the students present is 200.Jane and Mary look alike.2.意義上一致
1)主語(yǔ)形式雖為單數(shù),但意義為復(fù)數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。如:The crowd were shouting.單數(shù)形式代表復(fù)數(shù)內(nèi)容的詞有:people, police, cattle等。2)主語(yǔ)形式為復(fù)數(shù),而意義上卻是單數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。如:The news was so surprising.形復(fù)意單的單詞有news和一些以ics結(jié)尾的學(xué)科名稱,如physics,politics, economics等。
3.就近原則
即謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)形式取決于最靠近它的詞語(yǔ)。如用連詞or,either…or, neither…not, not only…but also等連接的并列主語(yǔ),如果一個(gè)是單數(shù),一個(gè)是復(fù)數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞與靠近它的主語(yǔ)一致。如:
Either your students or Mr.Wang knows this.(二)主謂一致的應(yīng)用 1.名詞作主語(yǔ)
1)某些集體名詞,如family, team等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),如果作為一個(gè)整體看待,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,如果就其中一個(gè)個(gè)成員而言,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如:
His family is a happy one.The whole family are watching TV.這類名詞有:audience,class,club,company,crew,enemy,crowd,government,group,party,public,team等。
名詞population一詞的使用情況類似?!癮 group(crowd)of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞”等短語(yǔ)之后的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也同樣可用單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù),前者強(qiáng)調(diào)整體,后者強(qiáng)調(diào)各個(gè)部分。
2)某些集體名詞,如people, police, cattle等,只當(dāng)復(fù)數(shù)看待,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞必須用復(fù)數(shù)。如: The police are searching for the thief.3)單、復(fù)數(shù)同形的名詞主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)根據(jù)意義決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。如: A sheep is over there.Some sheep are over there.4)名詞所有格之后的名詞被省略,這種情況一般只指商店、工廠、住宅等,作主語(yǔ)時(shí),動(dòng)詞一般用單數(shù)。如:
The doctor’s is across the street.My uncle’s is not far from here.常見(jiàn)的省略名詞有:the baker’s, the barber’s, the carpenter’s, the Zhang’s等。
表示店鋪的名詞,一般作集體名詞看待,但用作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞往往用復(fù)數(shù)。如: Richardson’s have a lot of goods to sell.5)當(dāng)名詞詞組中心詞為表示度量、距離、金額、時(shí)間、書(shū)名等復(fù)數(shù)名詞時(shí),往往可以根據(jù)意義一致的原則,把這些復(fù)數(shù)名詞看作一個(gè)整體,謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)形式。如:
Three years has passed since then.6)不定代詞each, every, no所修飾的名詞即使以and或逗號(hào)連接成多主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式。如: Each boy and each girl wants to go to the cinema.7)如果主語(yǔ)有more than one…或many a…構(gòu)成,盡管從意義上看是復(fù)數(shù)內(nèi)容,但它的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式。如:
More than one student has read the book.Many a girl has been there.但是,“more +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+than one”結(jié)構(gòu)之后,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般多用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: More members than one are against your plan.8)一些有兩個(gè)部分構(gòu)成的名詞表示衣物或工具作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用復(fù)數(shù)形式,例如:glasses, clothes, trousers, shoes, compasses, chopsticks, scissors等。但如果主語(yǔ)用“a kind of, a pair of , a series of等加名詞”構(gòu)成時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般用單數(shù)形式。如:
A pair of shoes was on the desk.9)this kind of book =a book of this kind(這種書(shū)),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù);短語(yǔ)this kind of men =men of this kind =these kind of men(口語(yǔ))(這一類人),但this kind of men的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),men of this kind和these kind of men的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù),all kinds of后跟復(fù)數(shù)名詞,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如:
This kind of men is dangerous.Men of this kind are dangerous.10)復(fù)數(shù)形式的單、復(fù)數(shù)同形名詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí),按意義一致原則,作用單數(shù)意義時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù),反之,謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。這類名詞有:means(方法),works(工廠),species(種類),Chinese,Japanese等。如:
The(This)glass works was set up in 1980.(這家玻璃廠建于1980年。)The(These)glass works are near the railway station.(這些玻璃廠在火車站附近。)當(dāng)它們前面有a, such a , this, that修飾時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù);有all, such, these, those修飾時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù),但means, no means, the means等詞前沒(méi)有以上修飾詞時(shí),可用作單數(shù),也可用作復(fù)數(shù)。
11)如果名詞詞組中心詞是all,most, half, rest等詞語(yǔ),所指的復(fù)數(shù)意義,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式;反之,用單數(shù)。如:
All of my classmates like music.All of the water is gone.12)在主謂倒裝的句子中,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與其后的主語(yǔ)一致。如: Between the two windows hangs a picture.2.由連接詞連接的名詞作主語(yǔ)
1)用and或both…and連接并列主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: Plastics and rubber never rot.Walking and riding are good exercises.但是,并列主語(yǔ)如果指的是同一個(gè)人、同一事物或同一概念時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,這時(shí)and后面的名詞沒(méi)有冠詞。如:
Truth and honesty is the best policy.The girl’s teacher and friend is a young doctor.To love and to be loved is great happiness.Going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit.A knife and fork is on the table.2)當(dāng)主語(yǔ)后面跟有as well as, as much as, no less than, along with, with, like, rather than, together with, but, except, besides, including, in addition to等引導(dǎo)的詞組時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)而定。如:
The teacher as well as the students was reading in the library.3)以or, either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also等連接的名詞(代詞)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)應(yīng)根據(jù)就近一致的原則。如:
Tom or his brothers are waiting in the room.Either you or he is to go.3.代詞作主語(yǔ)
1)名詞性物主代詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí),既可以用作單數(shù),也可以用作復(fù)數(shù),這取決于它所代替的是單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)。如:
Ours(Our Party)is a great party.Your shoes are black, and mine(=my shoes)are brown.2)such, the same起指示代詞作用時(shí),應(yīng)根據(jù)其所指的內(nèi)容來(lái)決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。如: Such is our plan.Such are his words.3)關(guān)系代詞who, that, which等在定語(yǔ)從句中作主語(yǔ)時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與句中先行詞的數(shù)一致。如:
Those who want to go please put up your hands.Some of the energy that is used by man comes from the sun.4)疑問(wèn)代詞who, what, which作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞可根據(jù)說(shuō)話人所要表達(dá)的意思決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。如:
Who lives next door ? It is Xiao Liu.Who live next door ? It is Zhang and Liu.What produce(s)heat ?
5)不定代詞any, either, neither, none, all some, more等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),有以下兩種情況:
單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),視其在文中的意義,動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)形式,例如: Now all has been changed.All are present.either, neither單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)通常用單數(shù)。
但后接of時(shí),若of的賓語(yǔ)為不可數(shù)名詞,動(dòng)詞當(dāng)然用單數(shù)形式,若of的賓語(yǔ)為復(fù)數(shù)名詞或代詞時(shí),動(dòng)詞可以是單數(shù),也可以是復(fù)數(shù),在正式文體中,單數(shù)形式的動(dòng)詞更常用。如:
Do(es)any of you know his address ? None of them has(have)seen the film.4.分?jǐn)?shù)、量詞作主語(yǔ)
1)“分?jǐn)?shù)或百分?jǐn)?shù)+名詞”構(gòu)成的短語(yǔ)以及由“a lot of, lots of plenty of, a large quantity of, a heap of, heaps of, half of +名詞”構(gòu)成的短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要與短語(yǔ)中of后面的名詞的數(shù)保持一致,這是因?yàn)槎陶Z(yǔ)中后面的名詞是中心詞,而短語(yǔ)中前面的量詞是修飾語(yǔ),例如:
Lots of damage was caused by fire.About three-fourths of the earth’s surface is covered with water.Three-fifths of the workers here are women.和這種情況類似的還有“a number of+名詞復(fù)數(shù)”,但是,“the number of +名詞”的中心詞卻是number, 試比較:
A number of students have gone home.The number of pages in this book is two hundred.注意:(large)quantities of修飾可數(shù)或不可數(shù)名詞,其短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般用復(fù)數(shù),例如:
Quantities of food(nuts)were on the table.短語(yǔ)in quantity, in large quantities意為“大量”;in small quantities意為“少量”。2)a great deal of , a large amount of修飾不可數(shù)名詞,其短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù);large amounts of修飾不可數(shù)名詞,其短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用復(fù)數(shù),例如:
A large amount of(A great deal of)damage was done in a very short time.Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.3)表示數(shù)量的one and a half后,名詞要用復(fù)數(shù)形式,但是其短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,例如:
One and a half bananas is left on the table.4)half of,(a)part of修飾可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)及不可數(shù)名詞時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),修飾可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。
5.名詞化的形容詞作主語(yǔ)
如果主語(yǔ)由“the+形容詞(或過(guò)去分詞)”結(jié)構(gòu)擔(dān)任時(shí),謂語(yǔ)通常用復(fù)數(shù),這類詞有:the brave, the poor, the rich, the blind, the young, the old, the sick, the dead, the deaf and dumb, the oppressed, the injured, the wounded, the unemployed等;但也有少數(shù)的過(guò)去分詞與定冠詞連用時(shí)指?jìng)€(gè)別,則用單數(shù)。如:
The blind study in special schools.The departed was a well-known engineer.這類形容詞或分詞如果要表示個(gè)體時(shí),就要與名詞man, person或表示人的單數(shù)連和,如:an old man, a rich person, the(a)wounded soldier 6.從句作主語(yǔ)
1)由what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù),但所指的具體內(nèi)容是復(fù)數(shù)意義時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般用復(fù)數(shù)形式,例如:
What we need is more time.What we need are doctors.2)在“one of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞++who/that/which”引導(dǎo)的從句結(jié)構(gòu)中,關(guān)系代詞who/that/which的先行詞是靠近它的復(fù)數(shù)名詞而不是one,因此,從句中的動(dòng)詞應(yīng)該是復(fù)數(shù)形式。如:
This is one of the most interesting stories that have been told.但是當(dāng)one之前有the only等修飾語(yǔ)時(shí),關(guān)系代詞的先行詞是one,而不是靠近它的復(fù)數(shù)名詞,因此從句的動(dòng)詞應(yīng)是單數(shù)形式。如:
She was the only one of the girls who was late.

主謂一致
考點(diǎn)知識(shí)清單
“一致”是指句子之間或詞語(yǔ)之間在人稱、數(shù)、性等方面保持的協(xié)調(diào)關(guān)系。在英語(yǔ)中最主要的一致關(guān)系是主語(yǔ)與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞之間數(shù)的一致。謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)必須和主語(yǔ)的人稱和數(shù)一致,這就叫主謂一致。
在判定一個(gè)句子主謂語(yǔ)是否一致時(shí),要遵循下列三個(gè)原則:語(yǔ)法一致、意義一致和就近一致?!罢Z(yǔ)法一致”也就是平常說(shuō)的從語(yǔ)法形式上取得一致,即主語(yǔ)為單數(shù)形式,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也采用單數(shù)形式;主語(yǔ)為復(fù)數(shù)形式,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞亦為復(fù)數(shù)形式?!耙饬x一致”就是從意義著眼來(lái)處理主謂語(yǔ)一致問(wèn)題。有時(shí),主語(yǔ)形式為單數(shù),但意義為復(fù)數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞依意義而定,也采用復(fù)數(shù)形式?!熬徒恢隆笔侵钢^語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的人稱和數(shù)往往和其最近的主語(yǔ)保持一致。

[解析] 句子的主語(yǔ)是what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句,即:what Zhai Zhigang,Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng did。謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),借助于助動(dòng)詞does強(qiáng)調(diào)謂語(yǔ),后用動(dòng)詞原形do。
[答案] B
[例3] Next to me sat an old lady and a country girl who _______ __looking at the foreigners in the air.
A.a(chǎn)re
B.is
C.were D.was
[解析] 本句是倒裝句,an old lady and a country girl是主句的主語(yǔ),也是who引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句的先行詞。定語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)應(yīng)與先行詞保持一致。
[答案] C
方法二
分清并列連詞
1.兩個(gè)單數(shù)名詞(主語(yǔ))用and或both...and...連接時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù),但要注意前后兩個(gè)名詞都帶有冠詞。
2.并列主語(yǔ)由or,either...or...,neither...nor...,not only...but(also)...,not...but...等連接時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常與鄰近的主語(yǔ)保持人稱和數(shù)的一致。
[例1] Not only Tom but also Peter and Mary _______ __planning to go.
A.is
B.was
C.a(chǎn)re
D.has been
[解析] 由連接詞either...or...,neither...nor...,not only...but(also)...等連接兩個(gè)并列主語(yǔ)時(shí),句子的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞必須和緊靠它的名詞或代詞的人稱和數(shù)保持一致。此題中的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)和Peter and Mary一致,故謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)are,因此C是正確的。
[答案] C
[例2] The writer and the educator _______ __visited our school.
A.have
B.has
C.had
D.are
[解析] The writer and the educator是兩個(gè)人,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。句意:那位作家和那位教育家參觀了我們的學(xué)校。如果換成The writer and educator,就是一個(gè)人了,即“那位作家兼教育家”,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。
[答案] A
方法三
記熟一些習(xí)慣用法
1.“many a以及more than one+單數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ).謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。
2.“a/an+單數(shù)名詞+or two”作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù);而“one or two+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。3.不定代詞anybody,anything,something,everybody,no one,nothing等作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。4.表示“時(shí)間、距離、價(jià)格”等復(fù)數(shù)名詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。5.“one and a half+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。
6.each...and each...;every...and every...;no...and no...;many a...and many a...等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。
7.“分?jǐn)?shù)或百分?jǐn)?shù)+of+名詞”作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)與of后的名詞保持?jǐn)?shù)的一致。
[例1]
_______ _of the land in that district _______ __covered with trees and grass.
A.Two fifth;is
B.Two fifth;are
C.Two fifths;is
D.Two fifths;are
[解析] 首先“五分之二”應(yīng)為two fifths,故答案應(yīng)為C、D中的一個(gè);當(dāng)“分?jǐn)?shù)+of+名詞”作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)要與of后的名詞保持?jǐn)?shù)的一致,這里的名詞是the land。
[答案] C
[例2] The number of the students of this school _______ __large.
A.a(chǎn)re
B.a(chǎn)re not
C.isn’t
D.a(chǎn)ren’t
[解析] 在“the number of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”的結(jié)構(gòu)中,“of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”的介詞短語(yǔ)作后置定語(yǔ),the number是中心名詞,所以謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式。
[答案] C
[例3] Every boy and every girl as well as some teachers who _______ __to visit the museum _______ _asked to be at the school gate before 6:30 in the morning.
A.a(chǎn)re;are
B.is;is
C.a(chǎn)re;is
D.is;are
[解析] 本題是一個(gè)帶有定語(yǔ)從句的復(fù)合句,定語(yǔ)從句修飾的是teachers,關(guān)系詞在從句中作主語(yǔ),應(yīng)與先行詞的數(shù)保持一致,故從句謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。句子主語(yǔ)是Every boy and every girl,當(dāng)主語(yǔ)后面跟有with,together with,as well as等連接的詞時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)不受這些詞語(yǔ)的影響。every...and every...作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。
[答案] C
第三篇:高中英語(yǔ)主謂一致精講介紹
高中英語(yǔ)語(yǔ)法--主謂一致
概述:
1)語(yǔ)法形式上要一致,即用作主語(yǔ)的名詞中心詞和謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞在單、復(fù)數(shù)形式上一致
2)意義上要一致,即主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)的一致關(guān)系取決于主語(yǔ)的單、復(fù)數(shù)意義.并列結(jié)構(gòu)作主語(yǔ)時(shí)當(dāng)意義為復(fù)數(shù)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)
注意: 當(dāng)主語(yǔ)由and連結(jié)時(shí),如果它表示一個(gè)單一的概念,即指同一人或同一物時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),and 此時(shí)連接的兩個(gè)詞前只有一個(gè)冠詞.The iron and steel industry 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:在英語(yǔ)中,當(dāng)一人兼數(shù)職時(shí)只在第一個(gè)職務(wù)前加定冠詞.后面的職務(wù)用and 相連.這樣本題主語(yǔ)為一個(gè)人,所以應(yīng)選B.主謂一致中的靠近原則
當(dāng)there be 句型的主語(yǔ)是一系列事物時(shí),謂語(yǔ)應(yīng)與最鄰近的主語(yǔ)保持一致.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.總的來(lái)說(shuō),在由not only…but also…, not just…but…, or, either…or…, neither…nor…連接主語(yǔ)的句子中及在there be句型中,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)按就近原則處理,即按與謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞最靠近的那個(gè)主語(yǔ)來(lái)確定謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: Not only John but also I am going to Shanghai next week.Either you or she is to go.Here is a pen, a few envelops and some paper for you.謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞與前面的主語(yǔ)一致
當(dāng)主語(yǔ)后面跟有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等詞引起的短語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞與前面的主語(yǔ)一致.The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory.He as well as I wants to go boating.謂語(yǔ)需用單數(shù)
1)代詞each和由every, some, no, any等構(gòu)成的復(fù)合代詞作主語(yǔ),或主語(yǔ)中含有each, every, 謂語(yǔ)需用單數(shù).Each of us has a tape-recorder.There is something wrong with my watch.2)當(dāng)主語(yǔ)是一本書(shū)或一條格言時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常用單數(shù).The Arabian Night is a book known to lovers of English.< The Arabian Night >是英語(yǔ)愛(ài)好者熟悉的一本好書(shū).3)表示金錢,時(shí)間.距離.價(jià)格或度量衡的復(fù)合名詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí),通常把這些名詞看作一個(gè)整體,謂語(yǔ)一般用單數(shù).(用復(fù)數(shù)也可,意思不變.)
4,all指人時(shí),動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù);all指物時(shí),動(dòng)詞用單數(shù).例如: “All are present and all is going well.” 所有人全部到場(chǎng)了,一切進(jìn)展順利
5,what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞可視表語(yǔ)而定:表語(yǔ)是單數(shù)名詞時(shí),動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),相反,則用復(fù)數(shù).例如: What they want to get is the number of good books.他們想得到的是大量的好書(shū).6,and連接的兩個(gè)單數(shù)名詞前若用each,every,no修飾,該名詞短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式.例如:
No book and no pen is found in the schoolbag.書(shū)包里沒(méi)有書(shū)和鋼筆.7,當(dāng)主語(yǔ)后面有as well as, with, along with, together with, but, like, rather than, except等引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要與最前面的主語(yǔ)保持一致.例如: My father as well as his workmates has been to Beijing.我父親和他同事曾去過(guò)北京.8,each作主語(yǔ)的同位語(yǔ)時(shí), 謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞由主語(yǔ)來(lái)決定,與each無(wú)關(guān).例如: They each have a bike.他們每人有一輛自行車.9,動(dòng)詞不定式,動(dòng)詞-ing形式短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常用單數(shù).例如: Going out for a walk after supper is a good habit.晚飯后出去散步是一個(gè)好習(xí)慣.10,the following作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)與后面名詞的數(shù)保持一致.例如: The following are good examples下面是一些好例子.11,以-ics結(jié)尾的學(xué)科名詞,如politics,physics,mathematics等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù).以-s結(jié)尾的名詞news, works, plastics等同屬此類.例如: Politics is now taught in all schools.現(xiàn)在各學(xué)校都開(kāi)設(shè)政治課.當(dāng)以-ics結(jié)尾的學(xué)科名詞表示“學(xué)科”以外的意義時(shí),用作復(fù)數(shù),如:mathematics(運(yùn)算能力)politics(政治觀點(diǎn))economics(經(jīng)濟(jì)意義)等
12,有些用來(lái)表示由兩個(gè)對(duì)應(yīng)部分組成一體的名詞復(fù)數(shù)(trousers, glasses,shoes.shorts.scissors.scales等)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),前面若有“一條”,“一副”,“一把”之類的單位詞,動(dòng)詞用單數(shù);若沒(méi)有單位詞或單位詞是復(fù)數(shù),則謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù).例如: The shoes are all right.這些鞋子都很合適.還有一些以-s結(jié)尾的名詞通常用復(fù)數(shù):
arms(武器).clothes.contents.minites(記錄).remains(遺體).thanks等 13,“one and a half +名詞”作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用單數(shù).例如: One and a half apples is left on the table.桌子上有一個(gè)半蘋果.14,“One or two more +復(fù)數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù).例如: One or two persons are sent there to help them do the work.要派一兩個(gè)人到那兒去給他們幫忙.15,“one of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞+ 定語(yǔ)從句”結(jié)構(gòu)中,定語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用復(fù)數(shù);而在“the only one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+定語(yǔ)從句”的結(jié)構(gòu)中,定語(yǔ)從句的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用單數(shù).例如: He is one of the students who get there on time.他是準(zhǔn)時(shí)到達(dá)那里的學(xué)生之一.16,表示時(shí)間,距離,金錢等的復(fù)數(shù)名詞作主語(yǔ)表達(dá)一個(gè)整體概念時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常用單數(shù),但若強(qiáng)調(diào)數(shù)量,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞可用復(fù)數(shù).例如: One million dollars is a lot of money.一百萬(wàn)美元是一大筆錢.以-s結(jié)尾的名詞作主語(yǔ)的主謂一致問(wèn)題
英語(yǔ)可數(shù)名詞的規(guī)則復(fù)數(shù)形式是在詞尾加-s或-es,但是有一些以-s結(jié)尾的名詞并不是可數(shù)名詞。它們用法多樣,造成了實(shí)際使用上的困難,以下詳述了以-s結(jié)尾的名詞作主語(yǔ)的主謂一致問(wèn)題。
There are huge crowds in the streets on Sunday.There are many English-speaking peoples in the world.但應(yīng)注意,這類集合名詞的單數(shù)形式有時(shí)表示復(fù)數(shù)概念,所以這些集合名詞的單數(shù)形式也可歸為“單復(fù)同形型”中.2)單數(shù)型.這類集合名詞表示的是人或事物的整體,即把這類人或事物的全部包括在內(nèi),所以只有單數(shù)形式.如作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞常用單數(shù).這類名詞常見(jiàn)的有:humanity, mankind, proletariat等.【例如】The proletariat is the greatest class in the history of mankind.In the fields of production and scientific experiment, mankind makes constant progress.3)復(fù)數(shù)型.這類集合名詞在形式和內(nèi)容上是相互矛盾的,就是說(shuō)它們只有單數(shù)形式,但表達(dá)的都是復(fù)數(shù)概念.它強(qiáng)調(diào)的是集體中的個(gè)體性.這類名詞有:police, cattle, faculty, flock, machinery, vermin, personnel等.它們作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞要用復(fù)數(shù).【例如】The police have caught the murder.Our personnel are very highly trained.The vermin are very dangerous.4)單復(fù)同形型.這類集合名詞的單數(shù)形式既可表示單數(shù)也可表示復(fù)數(shù).作主語(yǔ)時(shí),用單數(shù)動(dòng)詞或復(fù)數(shù)動(dòng)詞均可,有時(shí)意義區(qū)別不大.【例如】The school teaching staff are(is)excellent.The public is(are)requested not to litter in the park.The teaching profession claim(s)to be badly paid.這類集合名詞常見(jiàn)的有:class, family, team, crew, board, herd, committee, party, jury, enemy, audience等.根據(jù)說(shuō)話人的心理意向若把這個(gè)集合名詞所代表的人或事物看作一個(gè)整體,就認(rèn)為是單數(shù),用單數(shù)動(dòng)詞;若把它所代表的人或事物看作若干個(gè)個(gè)體的話,就認(rèn)為其為復(fù)數(shù),用復(fù)數(shù)動(dòng)詞.試比較: The football team is playing well.那個(gè)足球隊(duì)打得非常漂亮.The football team are shavings bath and are then coming back here for tea.足球隊(duì)員們正在洗澡,然后來(lái)這里吃茶點(diǎn).The family is a very happy one.那個(gè)家庭是一個(gè)非常幸福的家庭.That family are very pleased about the news of William's success.全家人對(duì)威廉的成功都感到很高興.主謂一致練習(xí)1

第四篇:高中英語(yǔ)主謂一致講解及練習(xí)
高中英語(yǔ)主謂一致
一)主謂一致的種類
1.語(yǔ)法形式上的一致
1)主語(yǔ)為單數(shù)形式(一個(gè)單數(shù)名詞,一個(gè)ving(短語(yǔ)),一個(gè)to do(短語(yǔ))或一個(gè)從句),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式;主語(yǔ)為復(fù)數(shù)形式(復(fù)數(shù)名詞,兩個(gè)或兩個(gè)以上的ving(短語(yǔ))、to do(短語(yǔ))或從句),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: The number of the students present is 200.Jane and Mary look alike.Giving Plastics and rubber never rot.Walking and riding are good exercises.2)當(dāng)主語(yǔ)后面跟有as well as, as much as, no less than, along with, with, like, rather than, together with, but, except, besides, including, in addition to等引導(dǎo)的詞組時(shí),其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)視主語(yǔ)而定。如: The teacher as well as the students was reading in the library.3)不定代詞作主語(yǔ),主語(yǔ)是one,another,the other,either,somebody,anybody,everybody,nobody,someone,anyone,everyone, no one,something,anything,everything,nothing等,謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。Nobody knows exactly how many species of plants and animals are on Earth.Everyone was calm.4)復(fù)數(shù)形式的名詞作主語(yǔ)。主語(yǔ)是glasses, shorts, shoes, scissors, gloves, trousers等復(fù)數(shù)名詞,謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。但其前有“pair/ kind/ type of ”時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)一般與pair,kind, type等的一致。The trousers are all right.Now please try on the shirt.A pair of Funky Swanky jeans costs 80yuan ,available in all Funky Swanky shops now.2.意義上一致
1)主語(yǔ)形式雖為單數(shù),但意義為復(fù)數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。如:The crowd were shouting.單數(shù)形式代表復(fù)數(shù)內(nèi)容的詞有:people, police, cattle等。People often use body language on purpose.The police are searching for the thief.2)某些集體名詞,如family, audience,class,club,company,enemy,crowd,government,group,party,public,team等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),如果作為一個(gè)整體看待,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,如果就其中一個(gè)個(gè)成員而言,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如:
His family is a happy one.The whole family are watching TV.3)不定代詞any, either, neither, none, all some, more, the rest, half等作主語(yǔ)時(shí),有以下兩種情況:
單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),視其在文中的意義,動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)(指代不可數(shù)名詞)或復(fù)數(shù)(指代復(fù)數(shù)名詞)形式,例如: Now all has been changed.All are present.either, neither單獨(dú)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)通常用單數(shù)。
但后接of時(shí),若of的賓語(yǔ)為不可數(shù)名詞,動(dòng)詞當(dāng)然用單數(shù)形式,若of的賓語(yǔ)為復(fù)數(shù)名詞或代詞時(shí),動(dòng)詞可以是單數(shù),也可以是復(fù)數(shù),在正式文體中,單數(shù)形式的動(dòng)詞更常用。如: Do(es)any of you know his address ? None of them has(have)seen the film.4)復(fù)數(shù)形式的單、復(fù)數(shù)同形名詞作主語(yǔ)時(shí),按意義一致原則,作用單數(shù)意義時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù),反之,謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。這類名詞有:means(方法),works(工廠),species(種類),Chinese,Japanese等。單、復(fù)數(shù)同形的名詞deer,sheep做主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)根據(jù)意義決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。如: A sheep is over there.Some sheep are over there.如: The(This)glass works was set up in 1980.(這家玻璃廠建于1980年。)The(These)glass works are near the railway station.(這些玻璃廠在火車站附近。)
5)主語(yǔ)形式為復(fù)數(shù),而意義上卻是單數(shù),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù),形復(fù)意單的單詞有news和一些以ics結(jié)尾的學(xué)科名稱,如physics,politics, economics等。如:The news was so surprising.6)當(dāng)名詞詞組中心詞為表示度量、距離、金額、時(shí)間、書(shū)名等復(fù)數(shù)名詞時(shí),往往可以根據(jù)意義一致的原則,把這些復(fù)數(shù)名詞看作一個(gè)整體,謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)形式。如: Three years has passed since then.Ten pounds is enough.7)“名詞+and+名詞”做主語(yǔ),并列主語(yǔ)如果指的是同一個(gè)人、同一事物或同一概念時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式,這時(shí)and后面的名詞前沒(méi)有冠詞。如: The girl’s teacher and friend is a young doctor.To love and to be loved is great happiness.Going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit.A knife and fork is on the table.8)“分?jǐn)?shù)/百分?jǐn)?shù)+of+名詞”作主語(yǔ),要根據(jù)of后的名詞確定謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。名詞為不可數(shù)名詞或單數(shù)可數(shù)名詞時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù);名詞為復(fù)數(shù)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。

如果主語(yǔ)由“the+形容詞(或過(guò)去分詞)”結(jié)構(gòu)擔(dān)任時(shí),謂語(yǔ)通常用復(fù)數(shù),這類詞有:the brave, the poor, the rich, the blind, the young, the old, the sick, the dead, the deaf and dumb, the oppressed, the injured, the wounded, the unemployed等;但也有少數(shù)的過(guò)去分詞與定冠詞連用時(shí)指?jìng)€(gè)別,則用單數(shù)。如:
The blind study in special schools.The departed was a well-known engineer.這類形容詞或分詞如果要表示個(gè)體時(shí),就要與名詞man, person或表示人的單數(shù)連和,如:an old man, a rich person, the(a)wounded soldier 10)不定代詞“each,/every+單數(shù)名詞+and+單數(shù)名詞”或“each,/every+單數(shù)名詞+and+ each,/every+單數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式。如:

由what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù),但由what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句所指的具體內(nèi)容是復(fù)數(shù)意義時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般用復(fù)數(shù)形式,例如: What we need is more time What we need are doctors.12)“a number of+名詞復(fù)數(shù)”,謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù),“the number of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞”謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)。
13)“a quantity of +不可數(shù)名詞/可數(shù)名詞”作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)取決于名詞是否可數(shù)?!皅uantities of +不可數(shù)名詞/ 可數(shù)名詞” 作主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)用復(fù)數(shù)。A large quantity of beer was drunk.A large quantity of nuts are on the table.(large)Quantities of nuts are on the table.3.就近原則,即謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)形式取決于最靠近它的詞語(yǔ)。
1)用連詞or, either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also等連接的名詞(代詞)作主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)應(yīng)根據(jù)就近一致的原則。如: Tom or his brothers are waiting in the room.Either you or he is to go.Either your students or Mr.Wang knows this.2)如果主語(yǔ)由more than one…或many a…構(gòu)成,盡管從意義上看是復(fù)數(shù)內(nèi)容,但它的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式。如: More than one student has read the book.Many a girl has been there.但是,“more +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+than one”結(jié)構(gòu)之后,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞一般多用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如: More members than one are against your plan.3)在主謂倒裝的句子中,謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與其后的主語(yǔ)一致。如: Between the two windows hangs a picture.There is a station and a free car park
