① 英语主谓一致的详细讲解。
主谓一致即谓语动词在人称和数上要和主语保持一致,主谓一致包括语法一致、意义一致和就近一致,语法一致即谓语动词在单复数形式上要和主语保持一致,意义一致就是谓语动词要和主语意义上的单复数保持一致,就近一致就是谓语动词要和靠近它的主语部分保持一致。
主谓一致( Subject-Verb Concord )
就其在现代语法中的基本原则而言,通常有三个不同角度的着眼点:1,语法一致 2,意义一致 3,就近原则。
(1)语法一致
主谓一致的原则是指,主语和谓语从语法形式上取得一致:
主语是单数形式,谓语也采取单数形式;主语是复数形式,谓语必须采取复数形式。
例如:
A grammar book helps you learn something about the rules of a language.语法书帮助你学习语言的某些规则。(主语是单数形式,谓语也采取单数形式)
(2)不定式,动名词,以及从句作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数。
例如:
Reading often means learning .读书常意味是学习。
(3)不定代词及each作主语或是修饰主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数。
例如:
Neither of my sisters likes sports .我的妹妹中没人喜欢运动。
(4)表示国家,机构,事件,作品等名称的专有名词作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数。
例如:
One Thousand And One Nights tells people lots of mysterious bits of folklore .《一千零一夜》给人们讲了许多神秘的民间传说。
(5)a series of,a kind of,the number of等与名词构成名词短语作主语时看作单数,谓语动词用单数。
例如:
A series of high technology procts has been laid out in the exhibition. 一系列高科技产品已在展览上展出。
(6)由some,several,both,few,many,a number of 等词修饰主语,或是由它们自身作主语时应看作复数,谓语动词用复数。
例如:
Both of us are fond of watching football games .我们俩都喜欢看足球赛.
(7)由and连接两个主语时,如指同一人或物,谓语用单数;指不同的人或物,谓语用复数.
On the seashore,some people are playing volleyball and some are lying in the sun. 海边,有些人在打排球,有些人躺着晒太阳.
(8)有些短语,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等后接不可数名词,或是单数形式的名词作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数;但如果后接可数名词的复数形式作主语时应看作复数,谓语动词用复数。
例如:
A lot of money in the shop was stolen yesterday when the electricity was suddenly cut off. 昨天突然断电时,那家商店丢失了许多钱.
(9)主语为单数个不定式(短语)、动名词(短语)或从句时,谓语动词一般用单数。
(10)主语为三单,或习惯用作单数名词或不可数名词的词,如:money,information,clothing等,谓语动词用单数。
意义一致(Notional Concord )
这一原则是指,从意义着眼来解决主谓一致问题.有时主语形式上为单数,但意义上却是复数,那么谓语依意义也用复数形式;而有时主语形式上为复数,但意义上却是单数,那么谓语依意义亦用单数形式。
(1)当主语后面接由as well as,as much as,accompanied by,including,in addition to,more than,no less than,rather than,together with等引导的词组时,其谓语动词的形式要依主语的单复数而定。
在这样的句子里,这些词所引导的词组不影响主语自身的单,复数形式,它们在句子里其实是状语.也就是说,我们完全可以将这些词组搬到句首或是放到句末去.从表面上我们也可以看出,它们与主语之间有","隔开。
例如:
Petroleum,along with fuel gas,has recently risen in price.目前石油和燃料煤气的价格上涨了。
(2)表示时间,金钱,距离,体积,重量,面积,数字等词语作主语时,其意义若是指总量应看作单数,谓语动词用单数;但如果其意义是指"有多少数量"则应该看作是复数,那么谓语动词也应该用复数。
例如:
Four weeks are often approximately regarded as one month.人们常大约地将四个星期看成一个月。
(3)形容词前加定冠词即"the + 形容词"作主语时,其意义若是指个人或是抽象概念应看作单数,谓语动词用单数;但如果其意义是指一类人则应该看作是复数,那么谓语动词也应该用复数。
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,青年人常认为老年人保守;另一方面,老年人总是认为青年人没有经验。
(4)当and连接两个并列主语在意义上指同一人,同一物,同一事或者同一概念时,应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.另外,当and 连接两个形容词去修饰一个单数形式的主语时,其实是指两种不同的事物,主语则应该看作是复数,那么谓语动词也应该用复数。
例如:
War and peace is a constant theme in history. 战争与和平是一个历史上的永恒的主题.
(5)集体名词作主语时,谓语动词的数取决于主语的意义:主语表示整体时视为单数,谓语动词用单数;主语表示集体中的个体成员时视为复数,谓语动词用复数.这类集体名词常见的有:
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一般看成复数形式.
例如:
The family are all fond of football. 那一家人都喜欢足球.
就近原则(Principle of Proximity )
这一原则是指,谓语动词的人称和数常常与最近作主语的词语保持一致.常出现在这类句子中的连词有: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,就是他们要对那件事的结局负责任。
Neither the unkind words nor the unfriendly attitude has caused me any distress.既不是那些不友好的话,也不是那不友好的态度让我沮丧。
1、并列结构作主语时的主谓一致
由and 连接的两个单数名词作主语时,谓语动词一般根据语法一致的原则用复数。
如:
A young man and a girl want to go there.一个青年男子和一个姑娘想去那里。
2、但如果在意义上指同一个人,同一件事或同一个概念时,谓语动词要用单数形式.如:
A needle and thread was found on the floor.在地板上找到了针线(穿了线的针)。
当each ...and each...,every...and every...,no...and no...,many a...and many a...结构作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式.
如:
No man and no animal is to be found on the moon.在月球上没发现人和动物。
3、一个单数名词同时被两个不同的形容词修饰,表示两个不同的概念时,谓语动词一
般用复数.
如:
Ancient and modern history are the subjects we are studying.古代史和现代史是我们目前学习的课程。
但如果表示的是同一概念时应用单数。
如:
The last and most difficult lesson is lesson14.14课是最后一课也是最难的一课。
4、由not only... but also ...,either...or ...,neither... nor...,... or...连接的并列主语,谓语动词通常依就近一致原则决定.
如:
Either the players or the coach is responsible for the defeat.不是运动员就是教练应该对这次比赛的失利负责。
5、当主语由as well as,along with,together with,ratherthan,no less than,but,except,besides,in additionto,like,including等词连接时,其谓语动词的单复数形式通常由前面的词来决定。
如:
An iron and steal works,with some satellite factories. is to be built here.在这里将建立一个钢铁厂和一些卫星厂。
② 在英语主谓一致这个语法点我不太清楚,请大家讲一下
John rescued the drowning child (at the risk of his own life)(John冒着自己生命危险救了那个溺水的孩子。)此题中动词rescue变成了过去式,而要填写回部分的正确答答案risk是名词 与主谓一致 无关
在一句话中只要是谓语动词 不管有几个并列谓语 都需要满足主谓一致这个原则
1.The university authorities did not approve the regulation,Nor did they explain why。
本题与主谓一致 无关 属于时态一致
2. Although he was interested in philosophy,(his father persuaded him into)
本题与主谓一致 无关 属于时态一致
你提的问题 不属于主谓一致 的问题 而是时态问题
在一个句子中 出现 并列谓语 一般时态要一致 当然有时也有不一致的情况
在复合句和并列句中 从句或并列句的谓语 视情况 可以和主句或前句 一致或不一致
关键 要符合逻辑
如 i am as i was 我没有变
③ 英语语法里主谓一致的问题
【意义一致原则(Notional Concord)】

①The worker and writer has come . 这位工人作家来了。
②A cart and horse was seen in the distance. 远处能看见有一套马车。
③Truth and honesty is the best policy. 真诚是最好的策略。
3. “and”前、后的单数词语都有“each, every ,many ,a ,no”等修饰时,仍作单数用。e.g.
①Every boy and every girl enjoys equal rights here.这里每个男孩和每个女孩都享有平等权益。
②No teacher and no student is excused from taking part in the activity .没有哪个教师或学生可以免于参加这项活动。
Ⅳ. 主语前、后加表“数、量”等的修饰语时:
1. a)“many a + 单名 ”接单数谓语:“a good (great ) many + 复名”接复数谓语。e.g.
①Many a fine man has died for it . 许多优秀战士为此献出了生命。
②A great many parents were present at the meeting. 许多家长出席了会议。
b)"a / an + 单名+ or two " 大多接单数谓语: "one or two + 复名"接复数谓语。e.g.
①Only a word or two is (are )needed. 只需说一两句。
②One or two reasons were suggested. 提出一两条理由。
c)"a / an + 单名+ and a half"常接单数谓语;“one and a half +复名”多接复数谓语。e.g.

②Large quantities of water are needed. 需要大量的水。
b)①This kind of apple is sweet . 这种苹果甜。
②This kind of apples is (are) sweet. (大多依 kind ,作单数用 )
③These kind(s) of apple(s) are sweet . (总作复数用)
但:Apples of this kind are sweet. (总作复数用)
3. 主语后接“with…”等构成的短语修饰成分时:谓语仍须与这类短语前的“主语”一致。可构成这类短语的常用“with ,along with ,together with ,as well as , but , besides , except ,added to , including , like ,no less than , rather than , more than ”等。e.g.
①A woman with two children has come . 一位妇女带着两个孩子来了。
②I as well as they am ready to help you. 不仅他们,我也愿帮助你。
4. "one of + 复数名词+ 定语从句":

①This is one of the best novels that have appeared this year . 这是今年出版的最佳小说之一。(关系词“that”代“novels”)
②He was one of the boys who were praised . 他是受表扬的男孩之一。
2)若“one”前加“this, the ,the only ”等时,定语从句的关系词指代one,作从句主语时,接单数谓语。e.g.
He was the only one of the boys who was praised .他是男孩中唯一受到表扬的。(关系词who 代 the only one )
④ 英语主谓一致问题
coal当做【煤】不可复数制
一般来说,不可数名词用动词单数,可数名词复数用动词复数.
There is much water in the thermos.
但当不可数名词前有表示数量的复数名词时,谓语动词用复数形式.
Ten thousand tons of coal were proced last year.
⑤ 初中英语需要掌握的主谓一致——语法主谓一致(写下需要注意的关联词等等)
主谓一致是指:
1) 语法形式上要一致,即单复数形式与谓语要一致。
2) 意义上要一致,即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。
3) 就近原则,即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语,
一般来说,不可数名词用动词单数,可数名词复数用动词复数。2 主谓一致中的就近原则
1) 当there be 句型的主语是一系列事物时,谓语应与最邻近的主语保持一致。
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.
2)当either… or… 与neither… nor, 连接两个主语时,谓语动词与最邻近的主语保持一致。 如果句子是由here, there引导,而主语又不止一个时,谓语通常也和最邻近的主语一致。 Either you or she is to go.
Here is a pen, a few envelopes and some paper for you.
3 谓语动词与前面的主语一致
当主语后面跟有with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等词引起的短语时,谓语动词与前面的主语一致。
The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory.
He as well as I wants to go boating.
1) 用half of, part of, most of, a portion of 等词引起主语时,动词通常与of后面的名词,代词保持一致。
Most of his money is spent on books.
Most of the students are taking an active part in sports.
2) 在一些短语,如 many a 或 more than one 所修饰的词作主语时,谓语动词多用单数形式。但由more than… of 作主语时,动词应与其后的名词或代词保持一致。
Many a person has read the novel. 许多人都读过这本书。
More than 60 percent of the students are from the city.百分之六十多的学生都来自这个城市
⑥ 英语主谓一致问题(语法知识较好的请进,非诚勿扰,避免骂人。谢谢)
你钻牛角尖了。。。
谓语动词的单复数形式,就是你上文说的什么时候谓语动专词用单数,什么时候用复数。这属么说吧,给你这个名词是为了解释语法时方便。就像你称SARS是非典一样。
这里有个资料,你自己看吧
http://..com/link?url=svU2khAFfV3X0DvK
⑦ 一道英语题(主谓一致)
答案:B
翻译:京沪人口大约有1/3是网民,但是在更贫困地区,只有3-4%的人回口上网在线。
解释答:此题考查population做句子主语时,主谓一致的语法。
1. 相关规定如下:
如果主语指的是“全部的/整体的人口”,则谓语动词用单数形式;
如果主语指的是“部分的人口”,则谓语动词用复数形式。
如:The population of China is about 1.3 billion.
One-third of the population of China are farmers.
2. 此两题中,主语population分别被one third和three to four percent所修饰,都是指“部分的人口”,所以谓语动词都用复数形式,即答案B为正解。
⑧ 英语语法主谓一致
both beijing and tianjin is in the north of China.
这句哪里看来的?这是病句,没这单数的用法
⑨ 英语语法并列主语的主谓一致问题
A promotion, a huge pay rise and a contract saying I would never publish anything about my work 是主语,后面的 was offered to me 是被动语态的谓语部分。
显而易见,主语部分是动回名词短语的复合结构,答其中的 a promotion, a huge pay rise and a contract 是动名词 saying 的逻辑主语,后面 I would never publish anything about my work 是动名词带的宾语从句。短语作主语属于单数概念,所以后面要用 was offered to me。这句话的意思是 “一次升职、一种大幅度的提薪和一种契约表明我从来不会透露有关自己工作的任何信息这种事情被提供给我(直译)”。
