专题三：主谓一致

谓语动词与其主语在人称和数上要保持一致，称为主谓一致。主谓一致遵循着三个基本原则：语法一致、意义一致和就近一致。

一、语法一致

语法一致是指主语为单数形式，谓语动词用单数形式；主语为复数形式，谓语动词用复数形式。其构成有以下10点。

1. 用and连接两个或两个以上的名词时，谓语动词一般用复数；但如果在意义上指同一个人，同一件

事或同一个概念时，谓语动词用单数。

Tom and Jim are students. 汤姆和吉姆是学生。

Rice and wheat are grown in China. 中国种植水稻和小麦。

Both his father and his mother are advanced teachers. 他的爸爸和妈妈都是先进教师。

The professor and writer is from Nanjing University. 那位教授兼作家来自南京大学。

milk and water 掺水的牛奶fish and chips 炸鱼土豆条meat and potatoes 肉炒土豆

3. 当主语后面有with, together with, along with, as well as, as much as, no less than, like, rather than, but,

except, besides, including, in addition to等引导的词组时，其谓语动词的单、复数由主语来确定。

The teacher, including his students, is going to the zoo.

那位老师，包括他的学生们，要去动物园。

4. “many a +单数名词”或“more than one+单数名词”作主语时，尽管意义上是复数，谓语动词仍

用单数形式。但“many+名词复数，more+复数名词+than one”结构之后，谓语动词用复数形式。

6. 有些名词如glasses, clothes, trousers, shoes, compasses, goods, ashes, scissors, shorts, pants等只有复数

形式，作主语时，谓语动词用复数。但若前面有a kind of, a sort of, a type of, a series of, a pair of, this kind of等修饰时，谓语动词则由单位词来确定。
