初中英語主謂一致關系語法

Ⅰ 求初中有關從句和主謂一致性的語法

主謂一致很簡單，就是主語若是第三人稱單數，動詞就用三單形式，以及不同主語所用be動詞不一樣而已，不要想的復雜了！

Ⅱ 英語語法：主謂一致

你好，science
and
technology就是「科技」的意思，你可以把它理解為
抽象名詞
，
謂語動詞
就是單數。

Ⅲ 初中英語主謂一致

用作主語的名詞片語中心詞和謂語動詞在單、復數形式上的一致，就是語法一致。也就是說，如果名詞中心詞是單數，動詞用單數形式；如果名詞中心詞是復數，動詞用復數形式。例如：

This table is a genuine antique.

Both parties have their own advantages.

Her job has something to do with computers.

She wants to go home.

They are divorcing each other.

Mary was watching herself in the mirror.

The bird built a nest.

Susan comes home every week-end.

（二） 編輯本段 回目錄 主謂一致 - 意義一致原則

有時，主語和謂語動詞的一致關系取決於主語的單、復數意義，而不是語法上的單、復數形式，這樣的一致關系就是意義一致。例如：

Democratic government graally take the place of an all-powerful monarchy.

A barracks was attacked by the guerilla.

Mumps is a kind of infectious disease.

The United States is a developed country.

It is the remains of a ruined palace.

No one except his daughters agree with him.

Mary and her sisters are baking a cake.

Neither Richard nor I am going.

A panel of experts has considered the situation.

The board of managers is responsible for the firm.

四、以-s結尾的名詞作主語的主謂一致問題

英語可數名詞的規則復數形式是在詞尾加-s或-es，但是有一些以-s結尾的名詞並不是可數名詞。它們用法多樣，造成了實際使用上的困難，以下詳述了以-s結尾的名詞作主語的主謂一致問題。

（一）以-s結尾的疾病名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

（二）以-s結尾的游戲名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

（三）以-s結尾的地理名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

（四）以-ics結尾的學科名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

（五）其它以-s結尾的名詞的主謂一致問題

（一）以-s結尾的疾病名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

以-s結尾的疾病名稱作主語的主謂一致問題,如：arthritis,bronchitis,diabetes,mumps,phlebitis,rickets,這類以-s結尾的疾病名稱作主語時，謂語動詞通常用作單數。

（三）以-s結尾的地理名稱作主語的主謂一致問題

某些以-s結尾的地理名稱，如果是國名，如the United States，the Netherlands等，因其是單一政治實體，所以謂語動詞用作單數。

例如：

The United States was hit by the Great Depression in 1930s'.

In early January 1996 the Netherlands was hit by its worst storm since 1976.

（三）主語 + as much as,etc的主謂一致問題

（一）由and/both...and連接的並列主語的主謂一致問題

由and/both...and連接的並列結構作主語，可根據主語的意義決定謂語動詞的單、復數形式。

六、以表示數量概念的名詞片語作主語的主謂一致問題

數量概念分兩類：一類是確定數量，如 two years, five seconds,three kilos,等，另一類是非確定數量，如all of..., some of..., none of...。如果用這類表示數量概念的名詞片語作主語，會產生主謂一致問題。

（一）以表示確定數量的名詞片語作主語的主謂一致問題

（二）以表示非確定數量的名詞片語作主語的主謂一致問題

（一）以表示確定數量的名詞片語作主語

當主語為表示確定數量的名詞片語時，如果數量概念被看做一個整體，動詞用單數，如果被看做組成該數量的個體，動詞用復數。

例如：

The treasurer considered that twenty dollars was not too much to ask.

"Two months is too short a time," General manager warned, "we must hurry up."

Three weeks is needed to complete the task.

There were six silver dollars in each of the stockings.

Two-thirds of the people present is against the plan.

Three-fourths of the surface of the earth is covered by sea.

Over twenty percent of the city was destroyed in the war.

例如：

Sixty minus seventeen leaves forty-three.

Forty-two divided by six is seven.

Six and eight makes/make fourteen.

Six times eight is/are forty-eight.

如果主語由"one in/one out of + 復數名詞" 構成，在正式語體中，動詞用單數。

例如：

（二）以表示非確定數量的名詞片語作主語的主謂一致問題

如果主語由 "a portion of, a series of, a pile of, a panel of +名詞"或由「a kind/sort/type of, this kind/sort/type of+名詞」 構成，謂語動詞通常用單數。
例如：

A pile of apple logs was set beside the hearth.

A portion of reports is deceiving.

This kind of cars is rather expensive.

This type of women is dangerous.

Ⅶ 主謂一致的語法

概述主謂一致指「人稱」和「數」方面的一致關系。對大多數人來說，往往會在掌握主語和隨後的謂語動詞之間的一致問題上遇到困難。一般情況下，主謂之間的一致關系由以下三個原則的支配： 語法一致原則 (grammatical concord) 意義一致原則 (notional concord) 就近原則(principle of proximity)編輯本段典型例題1 並列結構作主語時謂語用復數 Reading and writing are very important. 注意： 當主語由and連結時，如果它表示一個單一的概念，即指同一人或同一物時，謂語動詞用單數，and 此時連接的兩個詞前只有一個冠詞，共用一個冠詞用單數，表示一人兼兩職。 The iron and steel instry is very important to our life. The League secretary and monitor ___ asked to make a speech at the meeting. A. is B. was C. are D. were 答案B. 注: 先從時態上考慮.這是過去發生的事情應用過去時,先排除A.,C..本題易誤選D,因為The League secretary and monitor 好象是兩個人,但仔細辨別, monitor 前沒有the,在英語中,當一人兼數職時只在第一個職務前加定冠詞.後面的職務用and 相連.這樣本題主語為一個人,所以應選B. 2 主謂一致中的就近原則 當there be 句型的主語是一系列事物時,謂語應與最鄰近的主語保持一致. There is a pen, a knife and several books on the desk.. There are twenty boy-students and twenty-three girl-students in the class. 總的來說，在由not only…but also…, not just…but…, or, either…or…, neither…nor…連接主語的句子中及在there be句型中，謂語動詞的單復數按就近原則處理，即按與謂語動詞最靠近的那個主語來確定謂語動詞的單復數形式。如： Not only John but also I am going to Shanghai next week. Either you or she is to go. Here is a pen, a few envelops and some paper for you. 3 謂語動詞與前面的主語一致 當主語後面跟有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等詞引起的短語時,謂語動詞與前面的主語一致. The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory. He as well as I wants to go boating. 4 謂語需用單數 1) 代詞each和由every, some, no, any等構成的復合代詞作主語,或主語中含有each, every, 謂語需用單數. Each of us has a tape-recorder. There is something wrong with my watch. 2) 當主語是一本書或一條格言時,謂語動詞常用單數. The Arabian Night is a book known to lovers of English. <一千零一夜>是英語愛好者熟悉的一本好書. 3) 表示金錢,時間.距離.價格或度量衡的復合名詞作主語時,通常把這些名詞看作一個整體,謂語一般用單數.(用復數也可,意思不變.) Three weeks was allowed for making the necessary preparations. Ten yuan is enough. 5 指代意義決定謂語的單復數 1) 在代詞what, which, who, none, some, any, more, most, all等詞的單復數由其指代的詞的單復數決定. All is right. (一切順利.) All are present. (所有人都到齊了.) 2) 集體名詞作主語時,謂語的數要根據主語的意思來決定.如family,team，group，club,public, audience, crew, crowd, class, company, committee等詞後用復數形式時,意為這個集體中的各個成員,用單數時表示該個集體. His family isn't very large. 他家不是一個大家庭. His family are music lovers. 他的家人都是音樂愛好者. 但集合名詞people, police, cattle, poultry(家禽).militia(民兵).vermin(害蟲)等在任何情況下都用復數形式. Are there any police around 3)有些名詞,如variety, number, population, proportion, majority 等有時看作單數,有時看作復數. A number of +名詞復數+復數動詞. The number of +名詞單數+單數動詞. A number of books have lent out. The majority of the students like English. 6 與後接名詞或代詞保持一致 1) 用half of, part of, most of, a portion of 等詞引起主語時,動詞通常與of後面的名詞,代詞保持一致. Most of his money is spent on books. Most of the students are taking an active part in sports. 2) 在一些短語,如 many a 或 more than one 所修飾的詞作主語時,謂語動詞多用單數形式.但由more than… of 作主語時,動詞應與其後的名詞或代詞保持一致. Many a person has read the novel. 許多人都讀過這本書. More than 60 percent of the students are from the city.百分之六十多的學生都來自這個城市. 7 the+形容詞/國籍形容詞。表示一類人/一國人，作主語，謂語動詞用復數。 8 the+姓氏的復數，表示一家人或兩夫婦，作主語時，謂語動詞用復數， 9 四則運算時，謂語動詞用單數。 10 表示，(時間，距離，重量，金額，書名）的復數名詞作主語時，通常當做整體看待，謂語動詞用單數。

Ⅷ 英語主謂一致的詳細講解。

主謂一致即謂語動詞在人稱和數上要和主語保持一致，主謂一致包括語法一致、意義一致和就近一致，語法一致即謂語動詞在單復數形式上要和主語保持一致，意義一致就是謂語動詞要和主語意義上的單復數保持一致，就近一致就是謂語動詞要和靠近它的主語部分保持一致。

主謂一致( Subject-Verb Concord )

就其在現代語法中的基本原則而言，通常有三個不同角度的著眼點：1,語法一致 2,意義一致 3,就近原則。

（1）語法一致

主謂一致的原則是指，主語和謂語從語法形式上取得一致：

主語是單數形式，謂語也採取單數形式；主語是復數形式，謂語必須採取復數形式。

例如：

A grammar book helps you learn something about the rules of a language.語法書幫助你學習語言的某些規則。(主語是單數形式，謂語也採取單數形式）

（2）不定式，動名詞，以及從句作主語時應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數。

例如：

Reading often means learning .讀書常意味是學習。

（3）不定代詞及each作主語或是修飾主語時應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數。

例如：

Neither of my sisters likes sports .我的妹妹中沒人喜歡運動。

（4）表示國家，機構，事件，作品等名稱的專有名詞作主語時應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數。

例如：

One Thousand And One Nights tells people lots of mysterious bits of folklore .《一千零一夜》給人們講了許多神秘的民間傳說。

（5）a series of,a kind of,the number of等與名詞構成名詞短語作主語時看作單數，謂語動詞用單數。

例如:

A series of high technology procts has been laid out in the exhibition. 一系列高科技產品已在展覽上展出。

（6）由some,several,both,few,many,a number of 等詞修飾主語，或是由它們自身作主語時應看作復數，謂語動詞用復數。

例如：

Both of us are fond of watching football games .我們倆都喜歡看足球賽.

（7）由and連接兩個主語時，如指同一人或物，謂語用單數；指不同的人或物，謂語用復數.

On the seashore,some people are playing volleyball and some are lying in the sun. 海邊，有些人在打排球，有些人躺著曬太陽.

（8）有些短語，如：a lot of,most of,any of,half of,three fifths of,eighty percent of,some of,none of,the rest of,all of等後接不可數名詞，或是單數形式的名詞作主語時應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數；但如果後接可數名詞的復數形式作主語時應看作復數，謂語動詞用復數。

例如：

A lot of money in the shop was stolen yesterday when the electricity was suddenly cut off. 昨天突然斷電時，那家商店丟失了許多錢.

（9）主語為單數個不定式（短語）、動名詞（短語）或從句時，謂語動詞一般用單數。

（10）主語為三單，或習慣用作單數名詞或不可數名詞的詞，如：money，information，clothing等，謂語動詞用單數。

意義一致（Notional Concord )

這一原則是指，從意義著眼來解決主謂一致問題.有時主語形式上為單數，但意義上卻是復數，那麼謂語依意義也用復數形式；而有時主語形式上為復數，但意義上卻是單數，那麼謂語依意義亦用單數形式。

（1）當主語後面接由as well as,as much as,accompanied by,including,in addition to,more than,no less than,rather than,together with等引導的片語時，其謂語動詞的形式要依主語的單復數而定。

在這樣的句子里，這些詞所引導的片語不影響主語自身的單，復數形式，它們在句子里其實是狀語.也就是說，我們完全可以將這些片語搬到句首或是放到句末去.從表面上我們也可以看出，它們與主語之間有","隔開。

例如：

Petroleum,along with fuel gas,has recently risen in price.目前石油和燃料煤氣的價格上漲了。

（2）表示時間，金錢，距離，體積，重量，面積，數字等詞語作主語時，其意義若是指總量應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數；但如果其意義是指"有多少數量"則應該看作是復數，那麼謂語動詞也應該用復數。

例如：

Four weeks are often approximately regarded as one month.人們常大約地將四個星期看成一個月。

（3）形容詞前加定冠詞即"the + 形容詞"作主語時，其意義若是指個人或是抽象概念應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數；但如果其意義是指一類人則應該看作是復數，那麼謂語動詞也應該用復數。

例如：

The young,on the one hand,often think of the old conservative. On the other hand,the old always consider the young inexperience.一方面，青年人常認為老年人保守；另一方面，老年人總是認為青年人沒有經驗。

（4）當and連接兩個並列主語在意義上指同一人，同一物，同一事或者同一概念時，應看作單數，謂語動詞用單數.另外，當and 連接兩個形容詞去修飾一個單數形式的主語時，其實是指兩種不同的事物，主語則應該看作是復數，那麼謂語動詞也應該用復數。

例如：

War and peace is a constant theme in history. 戰爭與和平是一個歷史上的永恆的主題.

（5）集體名詞作主語時，謂語動詞的數取決於主語的意義：主語表示整體時視為單數，謂語動詞用單數；主語表示集體中的個體成員時視為復數，謂語動詞用復數.這類集體名詞常見的有：

army,audience,cattle,class,club,committee,crowd,family,government,group,majority,minority,part,people,police,public,staff,team等等，其中cattle,people,police一般看成復數形式.

例如：

The family are all fond of football. 那一家人都喜歡足球.

就近原則（Principle of Proximity )

這一原則是指，謂語動詞的人稱和數常常與最近作主語的詞語保持一致.常出現在這類句子中的連詞有：or,either… or …，neither… nor …，not only… but also …等.例如：

Either I or they are responsible for the result of the matter.不是我，就是他們要對那件事的結局負責任。

Neither the unkind words nor the unfriendly attitude has caused me any distress.既不是那些不友好的話，也不是那不友好的態度讓我沮喪。

(8)初中英語主謂一致關系語法擴展閱讀

2、但如果在意義上指同一個人，同一件事或同一個概念時，謂語動詞要用單數形式.如：

如：

No man and no animal is to be found on the moon.在月球上沒發現人和動物。

般用復數.

但如果表示的是同一概念時應用單數。

如：

The last and most difficult lesson is lesson14.14課是最後一課也是最難的一課。
