第二篇:初中英语知识点总结:主谓一致
在英语中,句子中的谓语动词在人称和单、复数形式上必须和主语保持一致,这就是我们通常说的“主谓一致”。这一点看似简单,但在实际运用中却常常遇到麻烦。一般情况下,主谓之间的一致关系由以下三个原则的支配: 语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近原则。
一、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,谓语亦采取复数形式.例如:
He often helps me learn English.(主语是单数形式,谓语也采取单数形式).My friends often help me learn English.(主语是复数形式,谓语也采取复数形式)
但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:
1、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 aloud is helpful to learn English.大声朗读对学习英语是有帮助的。
What he said has been recorded.他说的话已被录音了.2、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.但none 作主语时,谓语动词既可用单数也可用复数,这要取决于说话人的看法。例如:Neither of my sisters likes sports.我的妹妹中没人喜欢运动.Every boy and girl shows great interest in this book.每个男孩和女孩对这本书都表现出很大的兴趣.3、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 interesting stories.《一千零一夜》给人们讲了许多有趣的故事。
4、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: The number of workers in the factory is 400.这个工厂里工人的数量是400.A kind of rose in the garden smells very pleasant.这座花园里有一种玫瑰香气怡人.5、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: On the seashore, some people are playing volleyball 海边,有些人在打排球。
Both of us are fond of watching football games.我们俩都喜欢看足球赛.A number of will-be graduates are voluntarily going to work in the West of China.许多即将毕业的学生打算自愿去中国西部工作.6、有些表示数量的百分数,分数等后面加名词或代词作主语时,要根据这个名词或代词来决定其谓语动词的单复数形式.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.昨天那家商店丢失了许多钱.A lot of students are from England in the school.那个学校里很多学生来自英国。
二、意义一致
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but, except, besides ,as well as, as much as, including,more than,no less than, rather than, together with等引导的词组时,其谓语动词的单复数形式通常由前面的词来决定。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.例如: The teacher, with all his students, is going to have a picnic this weekend.老师打算这个周末与学生们一起去野炊.The students, together with their teacher , are going to have a picnic this weekend.学生们打算这个周末与他们的老师一起去野炊.我们完全可以将上面句子中的那些词组都分别搬到句首或是放到句末去,因为它们在句子里是状语: The students are going to have a picnic this weekend together with their teacher.2)表示时间,金钱,距离,体积,重量,面积,数字等词语作主语时,,谓语动词常用单数形式。如: Eight hours of sleep is enough.八小时的睡眠足够了。
Twenty years stands for a long period in one's life.二十年在人的一生里意味着一个很长的时期.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;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 sick here are very well cared for.这里的病人都被照顾得很好。The true is to be distinguished from the false.真实与虚假应加以区别。
4)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。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:The writer and teacher is coming.那位作家兼教师来了。(作家和教师指同一个人)The writer and the teacher are coming.作家和老师来了。(作家和老师是两个人)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, class, club, crowd, family, government, group, people, police, public, team等.例如: The family are all fond of football.那一家人都喜欢足球.The family is the tiniest cell of the society.家庭是社会的最小的细胞.6)一些形式为复数,意思为单数的名词,如:trousers, pants, shorts,glasses, 等作主语时,谓语动词用复数.如:Her glasses are new.她的眼镜是新的.但当这类名词前有a pair of 修饰时,谓语动词应用单数.如: This pair of trousers is made in Hangzhou.三、就近原则
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 his family nor he knows anything about it.他全家人和他都不知道那件事.常见考法
对于主谓一致的考查,通常会以单选的形式出现,多是让我们选择合适的谓语动词。典型例题:The factory, including its machines and buildings, __________ burnt last night.A.is B.are C.were D.was 解析:but, except, besides, with, together with, along with, including, as well as, rather than, like等词连接主语时,谓语动词和前面的主语保持一致,本题中就是和The factory保持一致。而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.答案:D 误区提醒
主谓一致这一知识点比较琐碎,在运用中常会因为考虑不全面而出错,所以我们必须把每一种用法记住,灵活运用。尤其要注意就近原则、集体名词和百分数,分数短语作主语的情况。
典型例题:Either Jane or Steven _____ watching TV now.A.were B.is C.was D.are 解析:本题考查的是就近原则。either… or …, neither… nor … ,not only… but also …连接两个主语时,谓语动词的人称和数常常与最近作主语的词语保持一致。本题中就是和Steven保持一致。有now.可知是现在进行时,排除A和C.答案:B

18.Some pictures of the river brought the days back to the old ________ they swam in it.A.when B.that C.who D.where 19.The man showed us so heavy a stone ________ no man can lift.A.that B.as C.which D.and 20.He stayed there for quite a long time, during ________ time he learned much spoken English.A.that B.this C.which D.same 答案与解析:
1.A.主语与run(延伸)是主动关系,所以用现在分词。Those指街道,所以不用who而用that来引导定语从句。2.B.因为在此题中where引导定语从句,表示“在这种种况下”,与in which相当。3.A.因为先行词是Beijing而不是this autumn所以用where引导定语从句。
4.B.答案B是省略了关系代词that的定语从句,另外,to后还省略了动词原形paint。5.C.因为of which引导定语从句,并在从句中作定语。of which the telephone number = whose telephone number。6.D.因为这是个非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面一句话的内容。
7.B.因为表示“阶段、程度、地步”的the point在定语从句中作地点状语,所以用where引导定
语从句。8.B.因为先行词是research centers并在定语从句中作状语,所以用where。
9.C.因为当先行词是表示事物的all, little, few, much, anything, everything, nothing等时,多用that引导定语从句。
10.因为先行词是the time,且在定语从句中作状语,所以用when引导。此题的先行词与定语从句被主句谓语分开了,要善于辨别。11.B.先行词是Taiwan is a part of China整个主句,一般由as或which引导定语从句,但which引导的定语从句只能放在主句之后,另外,as有“正如”之意,而which没有,所以用as。顺便说说,原句改为:It is known to everybody that Taiwan is„= What is known to everybody is that Taiwan is„
12.A.两空都是考查定语从句,先行词分别是the day和Shen Zhou V was launched, the day在定语从句中作状语,用when引导;后句是非限制性定语从句,不能用that,要用which。13.A.因为替代不可数名词(the bread)只能用that,排除B和D;又因为先行词that(the bread)在定语从句中作buy的宾语,用which,所以选A。14.D.当定语从句的先行词前有such, so, as等词语时,由as引导,并且as在定语从句中作主语或宾语,as在此题中作dream of的宾语。注意:在表示“如此„以致„”的such /so„that„结构中,that不作任何句子成份。15.B.考查非限制性定语从句,all of whose homes = all of their homes他们所有的房子。16.D.因为先行词是前面整个句子,且在从句中作主语,所以用which。of course是插入语。17.D.将疑问句改为陈述句:this research center is„显然缺少先行词,必须加上代词the one来作先行词,又因定语从句不缺主语或宾语,所以用关系副词where。假若在this后加the,就选where,请想想这是为什么。18.A.因为先行词是the days,并在定语从句中作状语。19.B.当先行词前有so时,用as引导定语从句,as在从句中作主语或宾语。假若在lift后加上it,答案就是that了,请想想这是为什么。
20.C.因前后均的句子,必须要选连词,排除B和D;又因在介词后不能用that来引导定语从 主谓一致练习

第五篇:主谓一致专题)
主谓一致
主谓一致指的是主语和位于动词在“数”的方面一定要保持一致,而这种一致关系通常是由下列三种原则支配的
一、语法一致:主语是单数形式或不可数名词,谓语动词也用单数形式;主语用复数形式,位于也用复数形式。
The library does not open until nine o’clock.The Great Wall draws numbers of tourists every year.The best reward I get from teaching is the joy of seeing my students grow and develop.Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.二、意义一致原则:主语虽在语法形式上是复数形式,但意义上是单数,谓语动词也要用单数;主语虽在语法形式上不是复数形式,但意义上时复数,谓语动词也要用复数。Cattle are grazing peacefully on the pasture.The police have arrested a lot of suspects.Two miles is a long walk for the 80-year-old man.One thousand dollars is a large sum of money for the couple.Five pounds is enough.Twenty years is a long time on one’s life.三、就近原则:有时谓语动词的形式是和它最近的词(或词组)保持一致的。Neither you nor I am right.Not only the boy but also his parents enjoy playing that game.Twenty percent of students are from Wuhan.Only half of the members agree with him.易出现问题的地方:
一、集体名词与以“s”结尾的名词作主语时主谓一致 1.people, cattle, police, poultry, militia, youth等形式上是单数,但意义上时复数,所以谓语用复数。
The police are questioning him.People often hear him telling about his experience in the Second World War.The militia are determined to fight the enemy to the finish.2.audience, committee, family, government, group, staff, team, public, class, crew, arm等若表示整体概念,谓语动词用单数,若强调成员或个体,谓语动词用复数。His family are proud of him.His family is not very large.The audience burst into thunderous applause.A large audience was watching their performance.某些表示疾病的词,如mumps, arthritis, bronchitis, rickets, diabetes等,以及某些表示游戏的词,如cards, ninepins, darts, bowls, marbles, billiards, chequers等,它们在形式上虽然是复数,但在意义上是单数,因此谓语动词要用单数。Sometimes mumps is rather dangerous.Arthritis is not a kind of infectious disease.Marbles is greatly enjoyed by the children here.Diabetes is a kind of chronic disease.4.某些以-ics 结尾的表示学科的词,如physics, mathematics, economics, politics, linguistics, optics, electronics, acoustics等,形式上是复数形式,但意义上是单数,因此谓语动词要用单数。
Some students say physics is much more interesting than mathematics.I don’t think linguistics is difficult to learn.但当这些词不表示“学科”时,有时可当复数用,谓语动词也要用复数。
Statistics show that the divorce rate in China is much higher than ten years ago.Politics have never interested her.5.以“s”结尾的国家、组织、机构等虽然形式上是复数,但却表示单数意义,所以谓语动词要用单数形式。
Some people say the United States is a large “melting pot”.The United Nations was founded on October 24, 1945.但表示群岛、瀑布、山脉等以“s”结尾的专有名词常被看成是复数,谓语动词也要用复数。The Niagara Falls attracts tourists from many countries every year.The Rocky Mountains are vast and spectacular.6.某些表示由两部分组成的物体的名词在形式和意义上都是复数如:scissors, pants, trousers, shorts, glasses, spectacles, jeans等,谓语动词也用复数。His glasses were broken this morning.Your trousers are in the wardrobe.另外还有一些常以“s”结尾的词,如:contents, archives, arms, goods, suburbs, stairs, earnings, surroundings, belongings, particulars等也通常被看成是复数,作主语时谓语也用复数形式。
The suburbs are more and more seriously polluted.The surroundings are very beautiful.All his belongings are in that big bag.二、表示数量概念的名词(或词组)作主语时主谓一致
1.表示时间、距离、价值、重量等的名词或词组作主语时,常把这些数量看成一个整体,谓语动词用单数形式。
Seven months is needed to translate this book into Chinese.Five hundred miles is a long distance.Where is the ten dollars I gave you yesterday? 2.“分数或百分数+of„”构成的短语作主语,如果of后面是单数,谓语动词用单数;如果of后面是复数,谓语动词要用复数。Two-thirds of the gasoline has been used.Over forty percent of the employees are women.Ninety percent of the wasteland has been turned into rice fields.Three-fifths of the trees have been cut down.3.“all(half, most, some, the rest, none等)+of„”构成的短语作主语,如果of后面是复数,谓语动词用复数;如果of后面是单数,谓语动词也用单数。All of his energy has been used up.All of the restaurants are closed.Most of the oil is imported from Saudi Arabian.Most of the rubbish has been removed from the playground.4.“lots(plenty, heaps, loads, scads等)+of„”构成的短语作主语时,如果of 后gender是复数,谓语动词也用复数;如果of后跟的是不可数名词单数,谓语动词用单数 Plenty of time has been spent on this experiment.Loads of friends have come to attend his wedding.Scads of money has been wasted in the past 2 years.5.当“many a+名词”或“more than one+名词”作主语时,谓语动词用单数。Many a customer complains about the poor quality of the washing machines.More than one train was delayed.6.“a portion(series, pile, panel, kind, sort, type等)+of+名词”构成的短语作主语,谓语动词用单数(无论名词时单数还是复数)。A portion of the products is being inspected.A series of questions was asked by the students.A pile of reference books is on his desk.7.“a number(或numbers)of +可数名词复数”作主语时,谓语用复数形式,但a great deal(an amount, a quantity)of +不可数名词单数作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。A large number of workers were dismissed.Numbers of houses were destroyed.A great deal of time has been wasted.但the number of „作主语时,谓语动词要用单数形式 The number of students is increasing.8.“an average(或total)of +名词复数”构成的短语作主语,谓语动词一般用复数。An average of 500 students graduate from this school every year.A total of 200 bicycles were sold last month.但the average(或total)of +名词复数作主语时谓语要用单数形式
The average of students who graduate from this school every year is 500.9.“a group(crowd, gang, flock, herd)of +可数名词复数”构成的短语作主语时,谓语动词既可以单数也可以用复数。
A group of people was /were standing under the big tree.A gang of gunmen was/were robbing the jeweler's.A herd of cows was/were grazing there.三、并列结构作主语时主谓一致
1.由and或both„and„连接的并列结构作主语,如果意义为单数,谓语动词就用单数;如果意义为复数,谓语动词就要用复数。
Asia, Africa and Latin America make up the third world.Both families and society are responsible for juvenile delinquency.下面由and连接的并列结构表面上是复数,实际上表示复数意义,所以谓语动词要用复数。Chinese and America culture are quite different.What they have said and done are quite disappointing.当each„and each„, every„and every„, no„and no„作主语时,谓语动词要用单数形式
Each boy and each girl was given an apple.Every teacher and every student was looking at him.No bus and no taxi was found in the street.2.由or, either..or„, neither„nor„, not only„but also„连接的并列结构作主语时,谓语动词的单复数形式与离它最近的主语保持一致。Neither he nor I am able to get there in ten minutes.Not only he but also I am curious about this.Neither her husband nor the doctors have told her about her condition.3.由某些介词或准并列连词连接的短语作主语,谓语动词的形式应与真正的主语保持一致。
常见的这类介词有:with, along with, together with, besides, in addition to, except, but, like, including等,准并列连词有:as well as, as much as, no less than, more than, rather than等。
Practical experience as well as formal education is considered very important in today’s job market.No one except hi relatives helps him.The bus driver, as much as the passengers, was very impatient.Jack, like many other children, often dreams of travelling in the space.The school, rather than the parents, is mainly responsible for the children’s safety.四、动名词、不定式和短语作主语时主谓一致
动名词或不定式短语作主语,谓语动词一般用单数形式。To err is human.To learn three foreign languages at the same time is very difficult.Smoking is very harmful to one’s health.Walking is the easiest way to exercise.五、名词性从句作主语时主谓一致 名词性从句作主语,谓语动词通常用单数
Whether you go or not makes no difference to me.It’s quite obvious that they have nor received the letter.How the plan is to be carried out still needs to be discussed.六、there be„ 句型中的主谓一致
be 动词的形式由它后面的主语决定,但当be 动词后是并列结构作主语时,遵循就近原则,be动词的形式要与它最近的主语保持一致。There are servants in the house.There is no water on the moon.There are a lot of spectators in the stadium.七、定语从句中的主谓一致
定语从句中谓语动词的单、复数形式是由先行词所决定的。That’s the young man who comes to the library every week.Yesterday they visited the palaces which were built 200 years ago.在one of+名词复数+定语从句的句型中,定语从句的谓语动词通常用复数形式,但当one 前有the或the only 时,谓语动词用单数:
She is one of the few passengers who were not killed in the crash.This is the only one of the books which is worth reading.
