2022中考英语步步高精品：单项选择考点(主谓一致
考点经典例题赏析)
1. I didn’t think maths ______ important at that time.
A. is
B. was
C. are
D. were
[点拨] 答案是B。

以-s结尾的学科名词maths, physics, politics等以及news, plastics等不可数名词作主语时，谓语动词应用单数形式。

又，因主句谓语动词是一样过去时，依照主句和从句时态一致性的原则，故选B。

2. Everyone except Tom and John ______ there when the meeting began.
A. are
B. is
C. was
D. were
[点拨] 答案是C。

主语后面有介词except, with, together with, like, but, besides 等构成的介词短语时，谓语动词的数不受其阻碍，也确实是说主语是单数，谓语动词就用单数；主语是复数，谓语动词也用复数。

依照实践状语从句when the meeting began确定主句应为一样过去时态。

3. Both Lily and Lucy ______ to the party yesterday.
A. invited
B. was invited
C. had invited
D. were invited
[点拨] 答案是D。

此题考查主谓一致的邻近一致原则。

both...and, not only...but also, neither...nor, either...or等并列两个名词作主语时，谓语动词应与其靠近的主语保持一致。

此题为一样过去时的被动语态。

4. Jenny: How many countries ______ in Europe?
Betty: I’m not sure.
A. is it
B. is there
C. are they
D. are there
[点拨] 答案是D。

此题考查There be句型的主谓一致问题。

主语countries是复数，谓语动词be也应用复数形式。

5. —What’s on the plate?
—There ______ some bread on it.
A. is
B. are
C. has
D. have
[点拨] 答案是A。

在There be 结构中，假如主语是不可数名词或单数可数名词，谓语
动词be须用单数形式is/was。

假如主语是复数名词，则be应用复数形式are/were。

假如主语有两个以上名词，则应与靠近的主语(名词)保持数的一致。

6. Look! There ______ some apples in that tree.
A. is
B. was
C. are
D. were
[点拨] 答案是C。

此题考查There be句型主谓一致的问题。

主语apples是复数形式，谓语动词be也应用复数形式。

由提示语Look!可知，该句说的是现在的情形，故不选D。

7. Henry, with his friends, ______ volleyball every Saturday afternoon.
A. play
B. plays
C. has played
D. have played
[点拨] 答案是B。

此句主语是Henry, 介词短语with his friends作状语。

正常语序是Henry plays volleyball with his friends every Saturday afternoon. 因此谓语动词用单数。

8. A boy with two dogs ______ when the earthquake rocked the city. (2003乌鲁木齐)
A. were sleeping
B. is asleep
C. was sleeping
D. are asleep
[点拨] 答案是C。

A. student; is
B. the students; are

D. students; are
[点拨] 答案是C。

“The number of + 复数名词”作主语，表示“……的数量”，谓语动词用单数。

题意是“我们班的学生数是五十”。

注意，a number of意为“许多”，后跟复数名词，谓语动词用复数。

10. —It’s more and more important to protect our earth.
