主谓一致

英语的主谓一致包括时态一致,逻辑主语和实际主语一致, 反意疑问句中的一致等.

处理主谓一致的三个原则—语法一致,意义一致和就近原则.

一, 语法一致原则

1)主语是单数，谓语也要用单数; 主语复数,谓语也要用复数,不受修饰词的影响.

The results of the research are to be published soon.

The theory advanced by these scientists is quite convincing.

What are his views on this subject?

The suggestion put forward by the girls has been accepted.

2) 短语, 从句做主语时,谓语用单数

Smoking is harmful to your health. Training astronauts is not easy task.

That she opposes these ideas is quite natural.

Whether he will come or not is uncertain. Going there alone is not wise.

To become a doctor is her dream.

3)当主语是and连接的两个时,若指其中一个（若两项是一个整体）时谓语用单数，当指两项时,谓语用复数.

Iron and steel industry plays an important role in our national economy.

The food and textile industry depend mainly on agriculture for raw material.

To try and fail is better than not to try at all.

4) 主语是单数，尽管后面跟着with, together, as well as, except, but等组成的短语,谓语仍单数.

John, together with his wife, is at the party.

Lily as well as Helen is playing volleyball. Everybody except Tim speaks some Chinese. No one but myself knows anything about it.

5) 一些代词做主语时的谓语

A) some, any, every, no构成的代词(some one, some body, some thing; anyone, anybody, anything; everyone, everybody, everything; no one, nobody, nothing等)做主语时,谓语用单数; / each, either, neither, no one, one of, many a(+名词单数), more than one+名词单数;/ whatever, whoever等主语时, 谓语动词用单数.

Two boys entered the room. Each was carrying a suitcase.

Somebody wants to see you, sir.

Either of these buses goes past the university.

More than one person is involved in this.

* more+名词复数+than one 结构做主语时谓语用复数.

More members than one have protested

against the proposal.

B) both, some, many, few, all(of them)做主语时谓语一般用复数.

Both (of them) are English.

Many are for going by plane. Be for(同意，

赞成) Some workers are still out of work.

Few of my friends like swimming.

Few/a few+名词复数

little/a little+名词单数

二, 意义一致原则

意义一致指谓语动词的单复数取决于主语所表示的意义,而不是取决于其形式.

1) 当主语为集体名词及某些其他名词(s结尾的名词，学科名称,单复数同形名词等), 谓语单复数要遵从意义一致原则.

Measles is a contagious disease. Mathematics is one of the required subjects in all schools.

2)表示度量, 时间的名词词组往往可以作为一个整体来看，谓语动词通常为单数.

Ten dollars is more than I expected.

Thirty people is a big group.

Three weeks is a long time.

3) all, most, some, half, none, what, who, the rest, the remainder做主语时, 谓语的单复数取决于这些词的意义; 当这些词后面

跟of+名词时, 谓语的单复数取决于后续的名词和意义。

All goes well. (抽象)

All were silent. (具体的个体)

Most of his time is spent traveling.

Most of his students come from south China.

None of the jobs is/are suitable for me.

All the jobs are not

4) a lot of, lots of, a pair of, a part of, a group of, a number of, an average of, the majority of, a total of等加名词或代词做主

语时, 谓语的单复数取决于名词和代词的单复数.

Part of the story is not true.

A part of the apples are bad.

The majority of the damage is easy to repair.

The majority of students are in favor of his proposal.

三, 就近原则

指谓语动词的单复数取决于靠近它的词语。

1)当两个或两个以上的主语由or, nor, either…or, neither…nor, not…but, not only….but also等连接时,谓语的单复数由临近它的名词决定.

Neither Mr. Smith nor I myself am able to persuade the principle to change his mind. One or two reasons were suggested.

2)当There be+并列主语中，谓语动词的数通常与临近它的主语一致.

There are two books, some paper, a dictionary on the desk.

时态一致

在英语主从复合句中，从句的谓语动词的时态应和主句中谓语动词的时态保持呼应，从而在逻辑关系中取得协调，这种现象叫时态的呼应。

1）主句中的谓语是现在或将来时态时，从句的谓语动词可以根据上下文需要采取任何时态。

I know that he often comes here.

I shall tell him that you came here yesterday.

It’s reported that they are building a new railway.

Will you tell me how you two are getting along?

2）如果主句是过去时，那么从句谓语也要用相关的过去时态。

A从句谓语的动作与主句谓语的动作同时发生时，用一般过去时或过去进行时。

I asked the little boy where he lived.

She told us that the teacher was preparing lessons.

B 从句谓语动词表示的动作发生在主句谓语动词表示的动作之前，从句用过去完成时或过去进行时。

I was glad that he had fixed my TV.

He denied he had stolen the car.

I didn’t know what they were doing at that time.

C 从句的动作发生在主句的动作之后，从句可以用过去将来时，过去将来进行时和过去将来完成时。

I didn’t expect you would come so early.

3)注：从句表示的是普遍真理，事实或人，事物的经常性特征时，宾语从句的谓语动词仍然要用一般现在时。

Long ago, people didn’t know that the earth is round.

He said he doesn’t smoke.

主谓一致

主谓一致姓名：****** 班级：英教七班学号：********** “一致”指句子成分之间或词语之间在语法形式上的协调关系。主谓一致指主语和谓语动词之间在“人称”和“数”的方面的一致关系，这又叫“主—动一致”。 1. 指导原则三种不同的原则：语法一致原则、意义一致原则、就近原则 1）语法一致主语和谓语动词之间的一致关系主要表现在“数”的形式上，即用作主语的名词词组中心词和谓语动词在单、复数形式上的一致。

如果名词中心词是复数，动词就该用复数形式；如果名词中心词不是复数，而是单数名词或不可数名词，动词便使用单数形式。这种一致关系叫做“语法一致”。 Both boys have their own merits（优点）. Few students are really lazy. Many people want to go. Two girls were standing on the corner. Each boy has his own book. Either answer is correct. Much effort is wasted. 2）意义一致和就近原则有时，主语和谓语动词的一致关系并非取决于语法上的单、复数形式，而是取决于主语的单、复数意义：比如有时主语在语法形式上并非复数，但有复数意义，随后的动词便用复数；反之，主语在语法形式上是复数，而在意义上可视为单数，随后的动词也用单数。这种一致关系叫做意义一致。 The government have asked the country to decide by a vote. Fifteen miles seems like a long walk to me. Fifty-six dollars was stolen from the cash register（现金出纳机）. 有时，谓语动词的单、复数形式决定于最靠近它的词语（主要指名词）的单、复数形式，这种一致关系所依据的原则叫做“就近原则”。Either my brothers or my father is coming. Only one out of five were present. No one except his own supporters agree with him. Neither Julia nor I am going. 2. 以-s 结尾的名词作主语的主谓一致问题

主谓一致用法总结

主谓一致使用主谓一致时，必须遵循三个原则，即语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。一、当单数可数名词、不可数名词、复合不定代词、单个不定式（疑问词＋不定式）、动名词或主语从句以及表示“时间、价值、重量、距离、书名、影片名称”等名词作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数形式。例如： The curtains are closed and the living room is dark when Mom and Dad enter. Visiting a place like this is always very interesting. Why pleasant smells do not reduce pain in men is a question still to be answered by scientists. 二、all（some, a lot, plenty, any, part, the rest, most等）＋of＋名词作主语以及分数、百分数构成短语作主语时，谓语动词单复数形式取决于of后的名词或代词。表示复数概念用复数；表示单数概念用单数。例如： As a result of the serious flood, two-thirds of the buildings in the area need repairing. One study says that 90% of our time is spent watching television

or using computers. While the rest of the passengers were getting out, she glanced at the faces around her. 三、在“名词/代词＋介宾结构＋谓语＋…”结构中，谓语动词与名词/代词保持一致，介宾结构看作插入成分。该结构中的常见介词及介词短语有with, together with, along with, as well as, like, but, except, besides, including等。例如： Healthy eating along with regular exercise is probably the only way to become fit. Nobody but Tom and his father has ever been there. 四、a number of / a group of / a variety of / a total of 等构成短语作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式；而the number of / the group of / the variety of / the total of 等构成短语作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。例如： The low number of attacks that happen every year proves that sharks do not feed on humans if they have the choice. Nowadays, a large number of women, especially those from the countryside, work in the clothing industry. 五、quality / pair / amount等构成短语作主语时，谓语动词根据

主谓一致(二)

主谓一致（一）单数名词与谓语动词的一致 1.表示集体的词： Army, class, audience, club, committee, company, crowd, family, group, government, organization, party, personnel, public, staff, team, union, crew. 2.表示成员的词： Cattle, folk, people, police, poultry Machinery, clothing, luggage, furniture, equipment, jewelry Clothes, works, goods, contents, the Olympics games Some of, plenty of, a lot of, lots of, most of, the rest of, all of, half of, part of, the remainder of 1.the public( )the best judge because the public always( )their thoughts.（B） A.are; express B.is;express C.is;expresses D.are;expresses

主谓一致

主谓一致揭秘英语中的谓语在人称、数及意义等方面要与主语的名词或代词以及相当于名词的词保持一致，叫做主谓一致。英语中的主谓一致须遵循一系列规则，包括语法一致、意义一致和就近原则。语法一致指的是语法形式一致，即主语是单数形式，谓语动词也用单数形式；主语是复数形式，谓语动词也用复数形式。如：The boys are playing football .He reads English every morning .意义一致是指主语有时形式为单数，但意义为复数，谓语动词依意义而定也采用复数形式。反之，主语形式上是复数，但意义是单数，谓语动词依意义而定也采用单数形式。如：People are talking about the news . Politics is taught in all middle schools. 就近原则是指谓语动词的单复数与最近的主语保持一致。Not only you but also he is wrong . 主谓一致情况复杂，但用途广泛，几乎时时刻刻都离不开。学生在学习时往往感到渺茫，感到“头痛”。因此，我们将主谓一致整合梳理，按担当主语的词，词组和句子分类学习，这样会让学生感到“山重水复疑无路，柳暗花明又一村”。一、名词作主语 1、部分集体名词，如police，cattle，people等作主语时，谓语动词用复数。例：The police are searching the house . 2、部分集体名词，如family，team，class，army，enemy，audience，company，government，group，commitee等作主语时，若作为一整体看待，谓语动词用单数形式；如就其中一个个成员而言，谓语动词用复数。例：（1）My family is a happy one. (2 ) The whole family are having lunch. 3、一些形式上是复数而意义上是单数的名词，如glasses,scissors,trousers等作主语时，谓语动词用复数。例：My glasses are very beautiful.但是前用a pair of来修饰时，动词应用单数形式。例：This pair of scissors is made in Shanghai. 4、一些以—ics结尾的表学科的名称词，如politics,economics,physics,mathmatics等形式上是复数，意义上则是单数，动词用单数。例：Physics is difficult to me. 5、若名词词组中心词是表示度量、时间、价格、距离等复数名词时，根据意义一致原则，谓语动词一般用单数形式。例：Ten years has passed since then. 6、一本书、一个组织、一国家的名称或一句格言作主语时，谓语动词用单数。例：(1) The United Nations is an international organization. (2) "The pride goes before a fall" is his motto. (3) "The Aribian Nights" is a very interesting story-book. 7、单复数同形的名词作主语时，谓语动词根据意义一致原则决定单复数。如sheep,deer,works,means,species,Chinese,Japanese等。例：(1) The deer is drinking water. (2) These deer are playing. 8、如果主语前有many a，more than one修饰，尽管从意义上看是复数，但谓语动词仍用单数形式。例：(1) Many a student has read the book. (2) More than one person is involved in the case.

II. 主谓一致的重要原则 ?语法原则 ?意义原则 ?就近一致（一）语法一致 IV.顾名思义，即谓语在语法角度上与主语保持一致，不考虑主语的意义。 V.以单数名词或代词，动词不定式短语作主语时，谓语动词要用单数;主语为复数时，谓语用复数。例如：注意：不定式及动名词作主语时，谓语动词单数。E.g. 2) 由and或both……and连接的并列成分作主语时，谓语动词用复数。例如： Both you and he are right. Mr. and Mrs. Brown have a son called Tom. 但并列主语如果指的是同一人，同一事物或同一概念，谓语动词用单数。例如：The poet and writer has written lots of books. The poet and the writer have come. 可通过名词前定冠词来判断。 3) 由and连接的并列单数主语之前如果分别由each, every修饰时，其谓语动词要用单数形式。例如： Now every man and every woman has the right to receive education. 4) 主语后面跟有 but ,except, besides, with ，together with 等介词短语时，谓语动词仍用与主语（即前面的词语）保持一致。例如： The teacher with his students is going to have a picnic in the park. The students with the teacher are going to have a picnic in the park. Nobody but two boys was late for class. 5) 集合名词作主语谓语动词要用复数。如people, police, cattle, clothes等。集合名词指可用来指称一群对象的词语，这些对象可以是人、动物、或是一群概念等事物。常见集合名词：people, police, cattle, goods, clothes等。 e.g. The police are looking for him. ?有些集合名词如class, team, group, family 根据其表达意义不同，单复数用法也不同。

高一英语“主谓一致”用法归纳一、基本概念所谓一致关系(Agreement)就是在英语句子中各个成分之间必须在人称、数、性等方面要保持一定的语法关系。在英语中最主要的一致关系是主语与谓语动词之间的一致。在判断一个句子主语、谓语是否一致时，要遵循下列三个原则：语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。一般来说，主语的单复数形式决定着谓语动词需要采用的单复数形式。比较：The student studies very hard.这个学生学习非常努力。The students study very hard.这些学生学习非常努力。主谓一致的原则说起来简单，但在实际使用中遇到的情况要复杂很多。在处理主谓一致的问题时，可依据上面提到的三个原则。“语法一致”也就是平常说的从语法形式上取得一致，即主语为单数形式，谓语动词亦用单数形式。“意义一致”就是从意义着眼来处理主谓语一致问题。有时，主语形式为单数，但意义为复数，谓语动词依意义而定，也采用复数形式。“就近原则”是指谓语动词的人称和数往往和其最近的主语保持一致。二、基本用法 1.集合名词与谓语动词的一致集合名词作主语，如果表示整体概念，谓语动词用单数形式；如果强调其成员，则用复数形式。常用的集合名词有： army,audience,class,club,committee,company,couple,crowd,family,flock,group,government,j-ury, majority,minority,organization,party,personnel,publ-ic,staff,team,union等。 The football team are discussing the problem with the coach now. 足球队员们现在正在与教练讨论这个问题。 The police have caught the criminal.警察已经逮捕了那个罪犯。 The majority were/was for the proposal.大多数人赞同这个提议。 Only a minority of students receive the scholarship.只有少数学生获得了奖学金。【注意】（1）有些有生命的集合名词作主语时，谓语动词只用复数。这样的名词常用的有：cattle,people,police,folk等。 The cattle are grazing in the fields.牛在田里吃草。（2）无生命的集合名词作主语时，谓语动词常用单数形式。这样的名词常用的有:clothing,furniture,machinery,jewellery等。 Warm clothing is necessary in cold climates.气候寒冷的地方需要暖和的衣服。 All the furniture has been moved to another room. 所有家具已经搬到了另一个房间里。 2.由either...or...，neither...nor...，not only...but(also)...连接的两个名词或代词作主语时，主谓一致遵循就近原则，即谓语动词应与最近的一个主语的人称和数保持一致。 Either he or I am wrong.不是他错就是我错。 Not only the students but(also) the teacher is active in sports and games.不但学生，就连老师都积极参加体育运动。 Does neither the teacher nor the students know this matter? 教师和学生都不知道这件事吗？【经典回放】 Either you or one of your students ______ to attend the meeting that is due tomorrow.

二、主谓一致(Subject-VerbConcord)

二、主谓一致( Subject-Verb Concord ) 主谓一致的问题看上去似乎很简单，其实使用起来却不是那么容易，有时候甚至很复杂。这是因为在不同情况下，处理这一问题所依据的原则各不相同。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。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，谓语亦采取复数形式。例如： A grammar book helps you learn something about the rules of a language.（主语是单数形式，谓语也采取单数形式）语法书帮助你学习语言的某些规则。 Grammar books help you learn something about the rules of a language.（主语是复数形式，谓语也采取复数形式）语法书帮助你学习语言的某些规则。主语和谓语从语法形式上取得一致的问题远不只上述的那么简单，有许多方面的情况需要去具体地对待： #不定式、动名词、以及从句作主语时应看作单数，谓语动和不可数名词并不是一尘不变的。英文中的很多词都是一词多义，名词词用单数。例如： Reading often means learning .读书常意味是学习。 To read English aloud every morning does you a lot of good.每天早晨朗读英语有许多好处。 What he said has been recorded .他说的话已被录音了。 ## 不定代词one, every, each, everybody, everyone, one of, no one, nothing, nobody, someone, somebody, either, neither, many a 等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。 Many a student takes a walk on campus after dinner.许多学生晚饭后常在校园里散步。Every boy and girl shows great interest in extra-curriculum activities .每个男孩和女孩对课外活动都表现出很大的兴趣。 ### 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。 The United States is leading the world in science and technology .美国常在世界科技方面领先。 The United Nations play an important role in the international affairs .联合国在国际事务中起着重要作用。 #### a portion, a series of, a kind of, the number of等与名词构成名词短语作主语时应看作单数，谓语动词用单数。例如： A series of high technology products has been laid out in the exhibition. 一系列高科技产品已在展览上展出。 The number of printing mistakes in some recent books often surprises people even to death.近来一些书籍里印刷错误的数量让人吃惊得要命。 A substantial portion of the reports is missing .这些报告都没有提及实质问题。 A kind of rose in the garden smells very pleasant.这座花园里有一种玫瑰香气怡人。##### 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。另外，由and连接两个主语时，谓语一般用复数。例如：
