主谓一致专练

是单一的，或主语名词的数比较特殊时，其主谓一致一般要根据语法一致遵循三条原则：语法一致原则，意义一致原则和邻近一致原则。

一、语法一致原则

一般来说，语法形式是单数的主语，谓语动词用单数形式；语法形式是复数的主语，谓语动词用复数形式。

The number of errors was surprising. 错误之多是惊人的。

They often play football on the playground. 他们经常在操场上踢足球。

二、意义一致原则

主、谓语的一致不是根据其外部语法形态来决定，而是取决于主语所表达的内在含义。主语形式虽为单数，但在意义上却为复数，谓语动词应采用复数形式；主语形式虽为复数，但在意义上视为单数，谓语动词应采用单数形式。

The crowd were fighting for their lives. 这些人正为生存而战斗。

Three years in a strange land seems like a long time. 在异乡生活的三年，仿佛是很长的时间。

(一)谓语动词为单数的情况

The worker and writer is from Wuhan. 那个工人兼作家来自武汉。

比较：The worker and the writer are from Beijing. 那位工人和那位作家来自北京。

2．every...and (every)．..，each...and (each)．.., no...and (no)．.., many a．..and (many a)．..连接两个单数名词作主语。

4．clothing, furniture, traffic, jewellery, baggage, equipment, luggage 等无生命的集合名词作主语。

5．以“s”结尾的词，但表示学科、国家、机构、书籍、报刊等名称作主语。

6．表示时间、距离、金钱、等复数名词作主语，表达一个整体概念时。

(二)谓语动词为复数的情况

5．a number of / quantities of / a group of ＋名词作主语。

(三)谓语动词单、复数视情况而定

Not every means is useful. / Not all means are useful. 并非每种方法都有效。/并非所有的方法都有效。

3．all, none, some, any 等不定代词作主语，根据其指代的内容而定。
