主谓一致【语法概说】

【主谓一致命题趋势与预测】

根据对主谓一致部分全国各地试题的分析可知,今后该部分将是重点考查点之一。其考查重点为:

1、 主谓一致的语法一致原则:指主语是单数形式,谓语动词用单数形式,主语是复数形式,谓语也用复数形式。 Tom is a good student.

主谓一致的就近一致原则

2、 主谓一致的意义一致原则:指主语形式上为单数,但意义为复数,因此谓语动词用复数形式;或主语形式上为复数,但表示单数意义,这是谓语动词用单数形式。

My family are having lunch now.

我们一家人现在正吃午饭。

Twenty dollars is too expensive for the book.

这本书20美元太贵了。

3、 主谓一致的附加原则:指谓语动词用单数形式还是用复数形式,取决于最靠近他的主语。例如:

Not only the teacher but also his students like playing football.

【考点诠释】

一、由or, either... or... , neither... nor... , not only...but also... , whether...or...等连接并列主语时,常采用就近原则,动词与最靠近的主语保持一致。

【考例】Not only Jim but also his sister ______a few cities in the south since they came

to China.[临沂市]

A.will visit B. has visited C.have visited

D .visited

[答案]B .[解析]本题既考查时态,又考查并列连词not only...but also的用法。由时间状语since they came to China,可判断用现在完成时,排除A、D两项;not

only...but also连接两个并列的主语时,谓语动词要用“就近原则。

Neither Jim nor his cousins _______to America, but _____of them know the country very

well. [07年潍坊市]

A.have been;a11 B. have been; both C has been; all

D.has been; both

[答案]B.[解析]考查neither...nor的用法,以及both与all的区别。neither„nor连接两个主语时,谓语用“就近原则”,cousins是复数,谓语用have been,排除C和D项;指两者用both。

二、 the number of + 复数名词,主语是the number(数量),谓语动词用单数;a number

of +复数名词,主语是复数名词,a number of作定语, 相当于many,谓语动词用复数。

【考例】Look! There _______ playing with the tourists on Yinhe Square. (2004包头)

A. are a number of deer B. are a number of deers

C. is a number of deer D. is a number of deers

答案:A。该题考查的是主谓一致。这个句子的主语是a number of deer, 是个复数概念,因此谓语动词应用复数形式。(deer单复数相同)

The number of ________ in our class ________ fifty. (2004山东烟台)

A. student, is B. the students, are C. the students, is D. students, are

[答案]: C

[命题立意]:本题考查主谓一致的用法。

[试题解析]:the number of 后接复数名词,作主语时,其谓语动词用单数形式。故应选C。

三、动词不定式、动名词以及名词性从句作主语时,谓语动词常用单数形式。【考例】As the saying ________,"Where there is a will; there is a way. "[昆明市]

A. go B. goes C. going D. went

[答案]B.[解析] the saying为第三人称单数形式,所以谓语动词用goes。

但what从句作主语而表语是复数时,谓语动词常用复数。

What we badly need here are experienced teachers. 我们这里急需的是有经验的教师。

四、and连接的两个单数名词作主语。

【考例】 Trees and flowers ________every year to make our country more beautiful.

[陕西省]

A. is planted B. was planted C. are planted D.

were planted

[答案]C.[解析] every year说明本句表示的是一般现在时的概念,去掉B、D项;trees

and flowers表达复数意义,所以选C项。

五、表示时间、距离、金钱、体积或数字等的词语作主语且表示总量时,谓语动词用单数。

【考例】

---How much ________the shoes?

---Five dollars_________ enough. [年青岛市]

A.is;is B are;is C.are;are D.is;are

[答案]B .[解析] 答案为B。shoes作主语时,谓语动词应用复数形式;five dollars是一个整体,应按单数对待。

How time flies! Ten years ________ passed. (2004天津)

A. have B. has C. is D. are

答案:B。该题考查的是主谓一致。Ten years通常被看作是一个时间整体,谓语动词用单数形式。

六、就近原则

--There__________ no milk in the fridge. Could you get some for me, Dick?

--All right, Mum. [福州市]

A. is B. are C. was

D. were

[答案]A.[解析]本题考查"there be”句型中be的数及时态,be在数上要与最近的主语保持一致.句子的主语是不可数名词,所以be应使用单数形式,B、D两项可以排除。

Not only Jim but also his sister ______a few cities in the south since they came to

China.[07临沂市]

A.will visit B. has visited C.have visited

D .visited

[答案]B .[解析]本题既考查时态,又考查并列连词not only...but also的用法。由时间状语since they came to China,可判断用现在完成时,排除A、D两项;not

only...but also连接两个并列的主语时,谓语动词要用“就近原则。

Neither Jim nor his cousins _______to America, but _____of them know the country very

well. [07年潍坊市]

A.have been;a11 B. have been; both C has been; all

D.has been; both

[答案]B.[解析]考查neither...nor的用法,以及both与all的区别。neither„nor连接两个主语时,谓语用“就近原则”,cousins是复数,谓语用have been,排除C和D项;指两者用both。

【语法回顾】

主谓一致

1. 语法一致的原则

2. 意义一致的原则

3. 邻近一致的原则

谓语受主语支配,须和主语在人称和数上保持一致,这叫做主谓一致。主谓一致一般遵循三条原则:语法一致原则,意义一致原则和就近一致原则。

在英语中,谓语动词必须和主语在人称和数上同主语保持一致,叫做主谓一致。通常采用下列三个原则来处理,即:语法形式一致的原则、逻辑意义一致的原则、就近(或毗邻)一致的原则。

一、语法形式一致的原则,即在语法形式上取得一致。如:主语为单数形式,谓语动词用单数;主语为复数形式,谓语动词也采用复数形式。但须注意下列几种情况:

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,谓语动词用单数。 例如:

Much land has been deserted in this area in the past few years.在过去的几年中,这个地区的许多土地已经沙化。

To start smoking is quite easy, but to give it up needs courage.开始吸烟很容易,但是要戒烟却需要勇气。

Reading English newspapers is a good way of improving you English. 阅读英文报纸是提高你英语水平的好方法。

What you need most is to have a good sleep.你所需要的就是好好睡一觉。

How you can get there is a problem. 你怎么到那儿去还是个问题。

[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 。例如:

What I bought were three English books.我买的是三本英语书。

What I say and do is (are) helpful for you.我所说的和做的对你是有帮助的。

2、由and 或both...and来连接并列主语时,谓语用复数。例如:

Swimming and walking are good exercises.游泳和散步都是好运动。

He and I were classmates when we were at college.他和我在上大学时是同学。
