【專題要點(diǎn)】主謂一致考點(diǎn)概覽:1.集合名詞作主語時(shí)的主謂一致;2.主語從句作主語時(shí)謂語的確定;3.or, either---or, nor, neither---nor, not only-----but (also), not---but等連接兩個(gè)并列主語時(shí)的主謂一致情況;4.主語+as well as, with, together with, along with, rather than, but, except, besides等詞時(shí)的主謂一致;5.由不同數(shù)詞修飾的名詞作主語時(shí)謂語的確定;6.定語從句中謂語的數(shù);7.the+形容詞作主語時(shí)謂語的確定;8.時(shí)間、距離等度量名詞作主語時(shí)謂語的數(shù)。
【考綱要求】考綱要求考生掌握主謂一致的三大原則即語法一致、邏輯意義一致、就近原則;掌握主謂一致的特殊用法;學(xué)會(huì)分析句式,排除干擾,分清主謂,明了句子的主謂關(guān)系。
【教法指引】分析近五年來的高考題可以發(fā)現(xiàn),高考對(duì)主謂一致的考查幾乎每年都有所涉及,但題量不大,其因?yàn)槭沁@項(xiàng)語法用法比較固定、單純,教師只要給學(xué)生講清主謂一致的“三大原則”,讓學(xué)生記住這些用法就能很好地把這項(xiàng)語法學(xué)會(huì);當(dāng)然高考命題多以特殊點(diǎn)為切入點(diǎn),讓學(xué)生注意三大原則里邊的一些變化如:not only -----but also連接主語是應(yīng)該按照就近原則。 not only he and she-----but also----這樣的結(jié)構(gòu)仍然還是就近原則,只不過主語為he and she。引導(dǎo)學(xué)生復(fù)習(xí)好主謂一致??碱}型如:

【知識(shí)網(wǎng)絡(luò)】 主謂一致用法
在英語句子里,謂語受主語支配,其動(dòng)詞必須和主語在人稱和數(shù)上保持一致,這就叫主謂一致。尋其規(guī)律,大致可歸納為三個(gè)原則,即語法一致、邏輯意義一致和就近一致原則。
(一)語法一致原則:語法上一致就是謂語動(dòng)詞和主語在單、復(fù)數(shù)形式上保持一致。
1、以單數(shù)名詞或代詞、動(dòng)詞不定式短語、動(dòng)名詞短語或從句作主語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞一般用單數(shù)形式;主語為復(fù)數(shù)時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
His father is working on the farm. / To study English well is not easy. / What he said is very important for us all. / The children were in the classroom two hours ago. / Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes.
注意:由what引導(dǎo)的主語從句,后面的謂語動(dòng)詞多數(shù)情況用單數(shù)形式,但若表語是復(fù)數(shù)或what從句是一個(gè)帶有復(fù)數(shù)意義的并列結(jié)構(gòu)時(shí),主句的謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
What I bought were three English books. / What I say and do is (are) helpful to you.
2、由連接詞and或both ... and連接起來的合成主語后面,要用復(fù)數(shù)形式的謂語動(dòng)詞。如:Lucy and Lily are twins. / 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:① 若and所連接的兩個(gè)詞是指同一個(gè)人或物時(shí),它后面的謂語動(dòng)詞就應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式。如:The writer and artist has come.; / ② 由and連接的并列單數(shù)主語前如果分別有no, each, every more than a (an) , many a (an)修飾時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞要用單數(shù)形式。如:Every student and every teacher was in the room.. / No boy and no girl likes it.
3、主語為單數(shù)名詞或代詞,盡管后面跟有with, together with, except, but, like, as well as, rather than, more than, no less than, besides, including等引起的短語,謂語動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式;若主語為復(fù)數(shù),謂語用復(fù)數(shù)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、either, neither, each, every 或no +單數(shù)名詞和由some, any, no, every構(gòu)成的復(fù)合不定代詞,都作單數(shù)看待。如:Each of us has a new book. / Everything around us is matter.
注意:① 在口語中當(dāng)either或neither后跟有"of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞(或代詞)"作主語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞也可用復(fù)數(shù)。
Neither of the texts is (are) interesting.
② 若none of后面的名詞是不可數(shù)名詞,它的謂語動(dòng)詞就要用單數(shù);若它后面的名詞是復(fù)數(shù),它的謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)都可以。
None of us has (have) been to America.
5、在定語從句時(shí),關(guān)系代詞that, who, which等作主語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與句中先行詞的數(shù)一致。
He is one of my friends who are working hard.
注意:He is the only one of my friends who is working hard.
6、如果集體名詞指的是整個(gè)集體,它的謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù);如果它指集體的成員,其謂語動(dòng)詞就用復(fù)數(shù)形式。這些詞有family, class, crowd, committee, population, audience等。
Class Four is on the third floor. / Class Four are unable to agree upon a monitor.
注意:people, police, cattle等名詞一般都用作復(fù)數(shù)。如:The police are looking for the lost child.
7、由"a lot of, lots of, plenty of, the rest of, the majority of + 名詞"構(gòu)成的短語以及由"分?jǐn)?shù)或百分?jǐn)?shù)+名詞"構(gòu)成的短語作主語,其謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)要根據(jù)短語中后面名詞的數(shù)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: a number of"許多",作定語修飾復(fù)數(shù)名詞,謂語用復(fù)數(shù);the number of"...的數(shù)量",主語是number,謂語用單數(shù)。
8、在倒裝句中,謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與其后的主語一致。如:There comes the bus./ On the wall are many pictures. / Such is the result. / Such are the facts.
(二)邏輯意義一致原則:邏輯意義一致就是謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)必須和主語的意義一致(因有時(shí)主語形式為單數(shù),但意義為復(fù)數(shù);有時(shí)形式為復(fù)數(shù),但意義為單數(shù))。
1、what, who, which, any, more, all等代詞可以是單數(shù),也可是復(fù)數(shù),主要靠意思來決定。如:Which is your bag? / Which are your bags? / All is going well. / All have gone to Beijing.
2、表示"時(shí)間、重量、長(zhǎng)度、價(jià)值"等的名詞的復(fù)數(shù)作主語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù)形式, 這是由于作主語的名詞在概念上是一個(gè)整體,如:Thirty minutes is enough for the work.
3、若英語是書名、片名、格言、劇名、報(bào)名、國(guó)名等的復(fù)數(shù)形式,其謂語動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù)形式。如: "The Arabian Nights"is an interesting story-book..
4、表數(shù)量的短語"one and a half"后接復(fù)數(shù)名詞作主語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞可用單數(shù)形式(也可用復(fù)數(shù)。如:One and a half apples is (are) left on the table.
5、算式中表示數(shù)目(字)的主語通常作單數(shù)看待,其謂語動(dòng)詞采用單數(shù)形式。如:Twelve plus eight is twenty. / Fifty-six divided by eight is seven.
6、一些學(xué)科名詞是以 -ics 結(jié)尾,如:mathematics, politics, physics 以及news, works等,都屬于形式上是復(fù)數(shù)的名詞,實(shí)際意義為單數(shù)名詞,它們作主語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞要用單數(shù)形式。如:The paper works was built in 1990. / I think physics isn't easy to study.
7、trousers, glasses, clothes, shoes, 等詞作主語時(shí),謂語用復(fù)數(shù),但如果這些名詞前有a (the) pair of等量詞修飾時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。如:My glasses are broken. / The pair of shoes under the bed is his.
8、"定冠詞the + 形容詞或分詞",表示某一類人時(shí),動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。
(三)就近一致原則:在英語句子中,有時(shí)謂語動(dòng)詞的人稱和數(shù)與最近的主語保持一致。
1、當(dāng)兩個(gè)主語由either ... or, neither ... nor, whether ... or ..., not only ... but also連接時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞和鄰近的主語一致。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動(dòng)詞單復(fù)數(shù)取決于其后的主語。如果其后是由and連接的兩個(gè)主語,則應(yīng)與靠近的那個(gè)主語保持一致。如:There are two chairs and a desk in the room..
注意:Here引導(dǎo)的句子用法同上。
(四)主謂一致應(yīng)注意的幾個(gè)問題:
A)名詞作主語
1)某些集體名詞(如family,team等)作主語時(shí),如果作為一個(gè)整體看待,謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式;如果就其中一個(gè)個(gè)成員而言,謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
The whole family are watching TV?
His family is going to have a long journey.
這類名詞有:audience,class,club,committee,company, crew,crowd,enemy,government,group,party,public,team,etc.
名詞population一詞的使用情況跟上述類似。例如::
The population in China is very large,and eighty percent of the population in China are farmers.
“a group(crowd)of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞”等短語之后的謂語動(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,militia等)只當(dāng)復(fù)數(shù)看待,謂語動(dòng)詞必須用復(fù)數(shù)。例如:
The police are searching for him.
3)單、復(fù)數(shù)同形的名詞作主語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)根據(jù)意義決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。例如:
A sheep is over there,
Some sheep are over there.
4)名詞所有格之后的名詞被省略的情況一般只指商店、工場(chǎng)、住宅等,作主語時(shí),動(dòng)詞一般用單數(shù)。例如:
My Uncle's is not far from here.
The doctor's is on the side of the street.
常見的省略名詞有:the baker's,the barber's,the carpenter's,the Zhang's,etc,
表示店鋪的名詞一般作集體名詞看待,但用作主語時(shí),謂語 動(dòng)詞往往用復(fù)數(shù)。例如:
Richardson's have a lot of leather 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,謂語用單數(shù)形式。例如:
Five minutes is enough to do this exercise.
The Selected Poems of Li Bai was published long ago.
Three years has passed.
6)不定代詞each,every,no所修飾的名詞即使以and或逗號(hào)連接成多個(gè)并列主語,謂語動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式。例如:
Each boy and each girl wants to serve the people in the future.
7)如果主語有more than one...或many a…構(gòu)成,盡管從意義上看是復(fù)數(shù)內(nèi)容,但它的謂語動(dòng)詞仍用單數(shù)形式。例如:
Many a ship has been damaged in the storm.
More than one student has seen the film,
是,在“more+復(fù)數(shù)名詞+than one\'’結(jié)構(gòu)之后,謂語詞一般用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
More members than one are against your plan.
8)一些由兩個(gè)部分構(gòu)成的名詞表示衣物或工具主語時(shí);謂語通常用復(fù)數(shù)形式,如scissors,chopsticks,compasses,shoes,trousers,clothes,glasses等。但如果主語由“a kind of ,a pair of,a series of等加名詞”構(gòu)成時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞一般用單數(shù)形式。例如:
A pair of shoes was on the desk .
9)this kind of book=a book of this kind(這種書),其謂語用單數(shù);短語this kind of men=men of this kind=these kinds of men(口語)(這一類人),但this kind of men的謂語用單數(shù),
men of this kind和these kinds of men的謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。all kinds of后跟復(fù)數(shù)名詞,謂語用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
Men of this kind are dangerous.
This kind of men is dangerous.
10)復(fù)數(shù)形式的單、復(fù)數(shù)同形名詞作主語時(shí),按意義一致的原則,作單數(shù)意義時(shí),謂語用單數(shù);反之,謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。這類名詞有means(方法),works(工廠),species(種類),Chinese,Japanese等。例如:
The (This) glass works was set up in l970.
(這家玻璃廠建于1970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),謂語用單數(shù);有all,such,these,those修飾時(shí),謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。但“means\",“no means\",“the means\"等詞前沒有以上修飾詞時(shí),可作單數(shù),也可用作復(fù)數(shù)。
注:work作“工作”解時(shí)是不可數(shù)名詞,作“著作”解時(shí)是可數(shù)名詞,有單復(fù)數(shù)之分。
11)如果名詞詞組中心詞是all,most;half,rest,part等詞語,表示的是復(fù)數(shù)意義,謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式;反之,用單數(shù)。例如:
All of the water is gone。
All of my classmates work hard.
12)在主謂倒裝的句子中,謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與其后的主語一致。如:
Between the two windows hangs a picture.
B)由連接詞連接的名詞作主語
13)用and或both...and連接并列主語,謂語動(dòng)詞通常用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
Walking and riding are good exercises.
Plastics and rubber never rot.
但是,并列主語如果指的,是同一個(gè)人、同一事物或同一概念,謂語動(dòng)詞用:?jiǎn)螖?shù)形式,這時(shí),and后面的名詞沒有冠詞。例如:
A knife and fork is on the table.
Going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit.
The girl\'s teacher and friend is a young doctor.
Truth and honesty is the best policy。
14)當(dāng)主語后面跟有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),其謂語動(dòng)詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)按主語的單、復(fù)數(shù)而定。例如:
The room with its furniture was rented.
The teacher as well as the students was excited.
15)以or,either...,neither...nor,not only…but also等連接的名詞(代詞)作主語,謂語動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)應(yīng)根據(jù)就近一致的原則。例如:
Neither you nor I nor anybody else knows anything about it
Either you or he is to go.
Tom or his brothers are waiting in the room.
C)代詞作主語.’
16)名詞型物主代詞后的動(dòng)詞,既可以用單數(shù),也可以用復(fù)數(shù),這取決于它所代替的是單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)。例如:
Ours(Our Party) is a great party.
our shoes are black,mine (=my shoes) are brown.
17)such,the same起指示代詞作用時(shí),應(yīng)根據(jù)其所指的內(nèi)容來決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。例如:
Such are his words.Such is our plan.
8)關(guān)系代詞who,that,which等在定語從句中作主語時(shí),其謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與句中先行詞的數(shù)一致。例如:

②后接of時(shí),若of的賓語為不可數(shù)名詞,動(dòng)詞當(dāng)然用單數(shù)形式;若of的賓語為復(fù)數(shù)名詞或代詞,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。
例如:
None of them has(have)seen the film .
Do(es) any of you know his address?

A quantity of blouses were on sale.
A large quantity of beer was sold.
Plenty of English books are on the shelf.
Lots of damage was caused by fire.

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)連用。如:all old man,a rich person,the(a)wounded soldier
F)從句作主語從句,不定式,-ing形式等做主語時(shí),一般被看作一個(gè)整體,謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)。
When to leave has not been decided.
What he said and what he did were always different.(如果主語是兩個(gè)(或兩個(gè)以上)的名詞性從句,謂語動(dòng)詞常用復(fù)數(shù)。)
29)由what引導(dǎo)的主語從句,謂語動(dòng)詞通常用單數(shù);所指的具體內(nèi)容若是復(fù)數(shù)意義,謂語動(dòng)詞一般用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
What we need are doctors.
What we need is more time.
30)在復(fù)數(shù)名詞引導(dǎo)的從句結(jié)構(gòu)中,關(guān)系代詞的先行詞是靠近它的復(fù)數(shù)名詞而不是,因此,從句中的動(dòng)詞應(yīng)該是復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如:
This is one of the most interesting questions that have been asked.
但是,當(dāng)之前有等修飾時(shí),關(guān)系代詞的先行詞是,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。
