主谓一致专项复习

主谓一致专项复习
一、语法一致的原则
语法一致是指主语为单数形式，谓语也用单数形式；主语为复数形式，谓语也用复数形式。

1、动词不定式或动名词作主语时，谓语动词用________。

To see __________ (is/are) to believe. 眼见为实。

Asking __________ (mean/means) nothing. 多问不吃亏。

2、“more than one / many a +单数名词”作主语时，尽管其意义复数，但谓语动词还是用__________形式。

二、意义一致的原则
句子的谓语动词和主语的数的一致是根据该主语的意义，而不是根据语法形式决定的。

当主语形式为单数，但意义为复数时，谓语动词要用复数形式；但主语形式为复数，而意义却为单数时，谓语动词用单数形式。

1、形式为单数，但意义永远为复数的集合名词作主语
这类名词有：_____________________，其谓语动词总是用______形式。

Cattle __________ (is/are) one cause of the problem.
2、集体名词作主语
团体性的集体名词表示整体时，其谓语动词用单数形式；但这些集体名词表示集体中若干个体时，谓语动词用复数形式。

The audience __________ (was/were) deeply moved.
The audience __________ (was/were)dressed in a variety of ways, some in suits and some in jeans.
A team which __________ (is/are) full of enthusiasm is more likely to win.
The team __________ (is/are) practicing hard on the playground.
3、有时，一些用and连接的主语表达的却是单数的概念，这时谓语动词也应用单数形式。

三、就近一致的原则
在一些结构或巨型中，谓语动词的人称和数须与邻近的主语保持一致。

1、“there be”和“here be”结构
Here ______ my replies to your questions.

2、部分并列连词连接两个主语时
