(完整版)英语语法主谓一致
1.主谓一致是指英语中谓语在人称、数及意义方面要与作主语的名词或代词一致。
2.主谓一致分为语法一致、意义一致、就近一致。
（1）语法一致原则：主语和谓语在语法形式上保持一致。
主语为单数，谓语用单数；主语为复数，谓语用复数。
I often help him and he often helps me.（2）意义一致原则：主语和谓语在意义上单复数一致。
主语为单数，谓语用单数；主语为复数，谓语用复数。
The police are searching the woods for the murderer.（3）就近一直原则：当主语有两个或两个以上时，谓语动词由靠近它的主语确定。
并列主语的谓语一致1.And（1）两个单数名词用and连接，表示不同概念时，谓语用发复数。
Tom and Jack are close friends.（2）两个单数名词用and连接，表示同一歌人、同一个物，同一个概念，或表示不可分割的整体时，谓语用单数。
The singer and dancer is to attend our evening party.（3）被every，each，many a，no等限定的单数名词由and连接时，谓语仍用单数，其中，后一个限定词可以省略。
every ……and ……every，each……and……each，no……and……no, many a……and……many a。
Each boy and (each) girl has an apple.（4）一个单数名词被几个用and连接的并列形容词修饰时，可以指一件事或几件事，这种名词作主语，要根据意义一致的原则决定单复数。
Simple and plain living is a fine quality.生活简朴一种优良品质。
Ancient and modern history are the subjects we are studying.（5）由and连接的两个what的从句作主语时，要根据意义一致的原则决定单复数What he says and does do not agree.（言行不一致）What he says and does does not concern me.2.由either or, neither nor, not but, not only but also,or, nor连接的并列主语，谓语动词常和邻近的主语一致。
(完整word版)英语专业四级语法之主谓一致
主谓一致主谓一致即句子的主语和谓语动词在人称和数上保持一致。
大致有三个基本原则：1．语法一致原则，即主语是单数形式，谓语动词也采用单数形式；主语如是复数形式，谓语动词则相应的为复数形式。
2．意义一致原则，即主语、谓语不参照主语的语法形式，而是取决与主语所表述的实际意义为单数还是复数。
3．就近原则，即谓语动词和它最相邻的名词、代词或其它词在人称或数上保持一致。
专四考点：1．语法一致✧当主语后面跟有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as等词引起的短语时，位于动词与前面的主语一致。
如：Tom as well as two of his classmates was invited to the party. 汤姆和他的两个同学被邀请去参加聚会。
The president of the college, together with the deans, is planning a conference for the purpose of laying down certain regulations. 该大学的校长准备和院长们一起开会制定校规。
✧如果主语是由“a committee of, a panel of, a/the board of + 复数名词”构成，谓语动词通常用单数。
如：A panel of scientific advisers to the agency is expected to make a formalrecommendation on Monday. 药监局的科学顾问小组将在周一提出正式建议。
The board of manager is responsible for the firm. 经理委员会对公司负责。
2．意义一致✧代词each和由every, some, no, any等构成的复合代词作主语，或主语中含有each, every,谓语需用单数。
专四英语主谓一致
第十九章主谓一致“一致”（CONCORD或AGREEMENT）指句子之间或词语之间在语法形式上的协调关系。
主谓一致是指主语和谓语动词之间在“人称”和“数”方面的一致关系，也称为“主－动一致”（SUBJECT－VERB CONCORD）。
第一节主谓一致的指导原则一致关系必须遵循三个原则，即语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近原则。
一、语法一致原则主语和谓语的一致关系主要表现在“数”的形式上，即用作主语的名词短语的中心词和谓语动词在单、复数形式上的一致。
主语为单数形式时，谓语动词用单数形式；主语为复数形式时，谓语动词也用复数形式。
这种一致关系被称为“语法一致”。
例如：My friend has no intention of going swimming with me.我朋友不想跟我一起去游泳。
Each family was forced t o send one labor to the army.每家都被迫送一个劳动力到军队去。
Men are born and remain free and equal in rights.人人生而拥有且保持自由，在权力上一律平等。
We do morning exercises every day.我们每天做早操。
二、概念一致原则有时，主语和谓语动词的一致关系并非取决于语法上的单、复数形式，而是取决于主语的单、复数意义，也就是说，主语在形式上虽然为单数，但其意义为复数，谓语动词则要用复数形式。
例如：Fifteen miles seems like a long walk to me.十五英里对我来说像是要走很长一段路程。
The teacher and writer is her friend.这个既是教师又是作家的人是她的朋友。
三、就近原则有时，谓语动词的单、复数形式决定于最靠近它的词语（主要指名词）的单、复数形式，这种一致关系所依据的原则叫做“就近原则”。
例如：Either my brothers or my father is coming here.来这儿的或者是我的兄弟们或者是我父亲。
【专四】主谓一致_等_练习
语法复习主谓一致1在英语句子里,谓语受主语支配,其动词必须和主语在人称和数上保持一致,这就叫主谓一致。
寻其规律,大致可归纳为三个原则,即语法一致、逻辑意义一致和就近一致原则。
(一)语法一致原则:语法上一致就是谓语动词和主语在单、复数形式上保持一致。
1、以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时,谓语动词一般用单数形式;主语为复数时,谓语动词用复数形式。
如: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引导的主语从句,后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式,但若表语是复数或what从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时,主句的谓语动词用复数形式。
如:What I bought were three English books. / What I say and do is (are) helpful to you.2、由连接词and或both … and连接起来的合成主语后面,要用复数形式的谓语动词。
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所连接的两个词是指同一个人或物时,它后面的谓语动词就应用单数形式。
如:The writer and artist has come.; / ②由and连接的并列单数主语前如果分别有no, each, every more than a (an) , many a (an)修饰时,其谓语动词要用单数形式。

1、主谓一致。
这类考题灵活性大，需要根据实际情况判断谓语动词的单复数形式。
一部分具有生命意义的集合名词做主语时谓语动词多采用复数形式，如
peoplepoultrymilitia等;用and连接的成分
表单一概念时谓语动词用单数:就近原则:主语中
含有某些连词(如aswellasbesidesin
additionto等)时，谓语动词的数同第一个主语保持一致。
2、倒装结构。
表示强调或突出，分为全部倒装和部分倒装。
那些否定词(组)、介词短语能引起倒装句。
部分倒装和全部倒装有和区别，as在倒装结构中的用法及意义等等，都是考生应当重视的地方。
3、非谓语动词。
这是词汇与结构考试中语法部分的重中之重，解题时可以从三个方面入手:
根据非谓语动词同其所修饰的名词或逻辑主语的一致关系，确定使用主动语态或被动语态，然后考虑采用现在分词、现在分词被动式或过去分词。
专四语法之主谓一致
专四语法之----主谓一致主谓一致1.当单数名词做主语后接with,together with,as well as,rather than, along with等短语做定语时，谓语动词只和主语保持一致。
The teacher together with his students is going there on foot.2.名词性从句或者非谓语动词短语做主语时往往表达一种抽象概念，谓语动词应该用单数形式：Driving cars is easy.To protect the fruits of our country victory is our sacred duty.3.Neither nor,either or,not only but also等句型中的谓语动词应该取决与主语中邻近部分，：Not only I but also Tom and Mary are fond of watching TV.4.the great part of可数或不可数与of后面的名词一致a large proportion of50% ofone third ofplenty ofthe rest of补充: a series of, a portion of, a species of, a piece of+ 名词的单数或复数时,谓语用单数.5.集体名词作主语时的主谓一致（1）表示无生命的“类”的集体名词Clothing，furniture，baggage/luggage，information，machinery，merchandise，jewelry 它们指同一类的许多东西，其用法与不可数名词相当：①形式上总是单数，没有复数形式，作主语时，谓语用单数。
The old machinery is out of date.这些旧机器过时了。
②不可直接与a（n）或数词连用。
表数量时用much，little，some，a piece of，an article of等。
