考点02 名词和主谓一致名词是历年高考的重要考点,常常出现在完形填空、语法填空和短文改错题型中。
名词局部主要考查:①名词的词义辨析和习惯搭配②名词的数〔可数与不可数、单数与复数〕③名词的所有格④抽象名词的具体化⑤名词和冠词的搭配名词是中学英语的主要词汇之一,也是历年高考的重要考点。
研究近年的高考题我们不难看出,名词局部主要考查名词的词义辨析和习惯搭配、名词的数〔可数与不可数、单数与复数〕、名词的所有格、抽象名词的具体化、物质名词的量化、名词和冠词的搭配以与主谓一致等。
在学习过程中,要掌握常用名词的根本用法,注意一词多义和旧词新义。
另外要多归纳总结,做题时要结合语境。
名词的数可数名词的数1.可数名词的数〔不规如此变化〕〔1〕单、复数同形。
如:means, aircraft, deer, fish, Chinese, Japanese, sheep。
〔2〕合成名词的复数。
如:boyfriend→boyfriends, go-between→go-betweens(中间人), grown-up→grown-ups, passer-by→passers-by, looker-on→lookers-on, woman doctor→women doctors。
〔3〕只有复数形式的名词。
此类名词往往以复数形式出现,表示“衣服〞、“工具〞等的总称,不能用具体的数字修饰,也不能加不定冠词a/an,但可以用a pair of/two pairs of, many等修饰。
如:clothes, tights, jeans, pajamas, pants, shorts, socks, stockings, trousers, glasses, chopsticks, compasses, pincers, scissors, scales等;另外一类总是以复数形式出现,但不能用具体的数字修饰,也不能用a/an,a pair of等修饰,只能用many, a great many, a lot of等修饰。

(完整版)高考英语专题复习主谓一致(附答案).doc高考英语专题复习主谓一致(附答案)I.考点分析一、概述主谓一致是指句子成分之间或词语之间在人称、性、数等方面的一致关系。
处理主谓一致一般应遵循以下三条原则:1.语法一致,即在语法形式上取得一致。
例如,主语为单数形式,谓语动词也为单数形式;主语为复数形式,谓语动词也采取复数形式。
a. The number of errors was surprising.b. Julia and her twin sister naturally look a lot alike.2.意义一致,即从意义着眼处理一致关系。
a. The crowd were fighting for their lives. (单形名词主语要求复数谓语动词,下划线部分表示一个整体中的成员 )b. Five minutes is enough. ( 复数名词单数谓语动词,下划线部分表示一个数目)3.邻近原则,即指谓语动词的形式与邻近的名词一致。
a. A man of abilities are needed(.动词 are 不与主语 a man一致,而与其邻近的复形名词a bilities 形式上一致。
二、主谓一致注意要点:1.当名词词组中心词为表示度量、时间等复数名词时,往往可根据意义一致的原则,把这些复数名词看作一个整体,谓语动词采取单数形式。
a. The dollars is not enough.b. Three months passes in no time at all on the ranch.如果明显地指一个个个体,则要根据语法一致地原则,谓语动词用复数形式。
a. There are two sliver dollars in each of the stockings.2.如果名词词组中心词是all, most, half, the last, the rest, the remainder等词组时,其主谓关系一般遵循意义一致的原则:如所指为复数意义,谓语动词用复数形式;如所指为单数意义,则谓语动词用单数形式。

①We always keep ______ spare paper, in case we ran out.A. too muchB. a number ofC. plenty ofD. a good many【解析】 答案为C 。
“paper”作为“纸”解释时为不可数名词,所以先排除B 和D 两个选项。
根据题意“我们总是准备充足的备用纸张,以防用光。
”选择答案C 。
too much 意为“太多”尽管修饰不可数名词,但用在这儿不符合题意。
②The young dancers looked so charming in their beautiful clothes that we took ___ pictures of them.A. many ofB. masses ofC. the number ofD. a large amount of【解析】答案为B。
【解析】答案为masses of 意为“大量的”既可修饰可数名词又可修饰不可数名词;the number of…意为“……的数量”;a large amount of意为“大量的”后接不可数名词;“many of”后接前面带有定冠词的名词,意为“……中的许多”。
