句子改错主谓一致

第一篇：句子改错主谓一致

SAT 文法中的主谓一致

根据ＳＡＴ历年真题以及官方指南习题，主谓一致的句子改错题又可以分为五大类：１ 迷失主语 ２ 复合主语 ３ 单数原则 ４ 关系从句 ５ 倒装结构

１ 迷失主语：

即修饰主语的成份过长，难以辨别真正主语。因此很难判断谓语动词的形式。例一 A group of yachts with brightly colored banners flying in the wind were entering the harbor.在这个句子中很少有同学能够认识到真正的主语是a group，yachts with brightly colored banners 以及flying in the wind都是对其修饰的成份。因此根据主谓一致原则，谓语动词应用单数 was entering 而非were entering。

在这里Sally 告诉大家，SAT文法中经常有 名词一 of 名词二 的结构，在这样的结构中，核心名词是 of 之前的名词一，判断谓语动词要用 单数还是复数是根据名词一来决定。

例二 French mountain honey made from linden blossoms, which are sometimes called ‘lime blossoms’, have a distinctively citrus flavor.在这里真正的主语是 honey，和谓语动词之间相隔了一个分词短语：made from liden blossoms 和一个定语从句： which are sometimes called ‘lime blossoms’,因此谓语动词应该用单数 has 而非have。

例三 Despite the heavy rain, the television reporter, accompanied by her loyal film crew, were willing to wait outside the hotel until the delegates finished their meeting.该句中，主语和谓语动词之间有一个插入语：accompanied by her loyal film crew, 真正的主语 the television reporter, 因此谓语动词为 was 而非were

2、复合主语： 顾名思义，复合主语就是有两个或者两个以上的主语，这是我们应该跟不同的复合主语选用不用的谓语动词。

一般情况下复合主语有以下几种情况： A． both…and…(谓语动词使用复数)B． neither…nor;either….or;not only…but also….(谓语动词根据就近原则选用相应形式)例一 Our genetic make-up and our personal experience make us who we are.在这个句子中，降到了 genetic make-up 和 personal experience 两个方面做主语，因此谓语动词应该使用复数形式 make。

例二 Either a novel by Isaac Asimov or one by Arthur C.Clarke are going to be discussed at the next meeting of the Science Fiction Book Club.该句主语是一个either…or 的句型结构，要根据就近原则决定谓语动词单复数，因此应该是is going 而非are going。永远单数原则

有些词语修饰主语，谓语动词永远使用单数。这些词为：each，every，either of;neither of 例： Because neither of the dolls were in its original box, the pair would not be worth as much as

the toy collector had hoped.因为词句用了neither of 的结构，因此谓语动词要用单数 was 而非were，尽管dolls 紧跟谓语动词。关系从句中的单复数 关系从句又叫定语从句，意思是定语从句中的谓语动词形式由此从句所修饰的名词单复数决定。

例一： Thanks to the strength of the bonds between its constituent carbon atoms, a diamond had exceptional physical properties that makes it useful in a wide variety of industrial applicants.该句包含一个定语从句_ that makes it useful in a wide variety of industrial applicants.该从句中的that 指代的是physical properties 是复数名词，因此定语从句中的谓语动词应用复数形式 为 make 而非makes 倒装

倒装意为着谓语动词放在主语之前，谓语动词的单复数形式由放在其后的主语决定。例一：Over that hill are thousand of bison.该句中介词短语 over that hill 不能做主语，因此该句为倒装句，真正的主语是thousand of bison，因此谓语动词为复数形式：are。

例二：Riding on the bus were a dozen commuters.句子里面 a dozen commuters 是主语，谓语动词用were

例三： Across the street from the new bookstore and coffee shop were an old, dilapidated playground whose broken equipment and overgrown weeds attested to long neglect.不难看出，这是一个介词短语提前的倒装，真正的主语是 an old，dilapidated playground，谓语动词当然要用单数形式：was。

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

第四篇：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。

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

第五篇：高中英语主谓一致

高中英语主谓一致

一）主谓一致的种类

1．语法形式上的一致

主语为单数形式，谓语动词用单数形式；主语为复数形式，谓语动词也用复数形式。如： The number of the students present is 200.Jane and Mary look alike.2．意义上一致

1）主语形式虽为单数，但意义为复数，谓语动词用复数。如：The crowd were shouting.单数形式代表复数内容的词有：people, police, cattle等。2）主语形式为复数，而意义上却是单数，谓语动词用单数。如：The news was so surprising.形复意单的单词有news和一些以ics结尾的学科名称，如physics，politics, economics等。

3．就近原则

即谓语动词的单、复数形式取决于最靠近它的词语。如用连词or，either…or, neither…not, not only…but also等连接的并列主语，如果一个是单数，一个是复数，谓语动词与靠近它的主语一致。如：

Either your students or Mr.Wang knows this.（二）主谓一致的应用 1．名词作主语

1）某些集体名词，如family, team等作主语时，如果作为一个整体看待，谓语动词用单数形式，如果就其中一个个成员而言，谓语动词用复数形式。如：

His family is a happy one.The whole family are watching TV.这类名词有：audience，class，club，company，crew，enemy，crowd，government，group，party，public，team等。

名词population一词的使用情况类似。“a group(crowd)of +复数名词”等短语之后的谓语动词也同样可用单数或复数，前者强调整体，后者强调各个部分。

2）某些集体名词，如people, police, cattle等，只当复数看待，谓语动词必须用复数。如： The police are searching for the thief.3）单、复数同形的名词主语时，谓语动词应根据意义决定单、复数。如： A sheep is over there.Some sheep are over there.4）名词所有格之后的名词被省略，这种情况一般只指商店、工厂、住宅等，作主语时，动词一般用单数。如：

The doctor’s is across the street.My uncle’s is not far from here.常见的省略名词有：the baker’s, the barber’s, the carpenter’s, the Zhang’s等。

表示店铺的名词，一般作集体名词看待，但用作主语时，谓语动词往往用复数。如： Richardson’s have a lot of goods to sell.5）当名词词组中心词为表示度量、距离、金额、时间、书名等复数名词时，往往可以根据意义一致的原则，把这些复数名词看作一个整体，谓语用单数形式。如：

Three years has passed since then.6）不定代词each, every, no所修饰的名词即使以and或逗号连接成多主语时，谓语动词仍用单数形式。如： Each boy and each girl wants to go to the cinema.7）如果主语有more than one…或many a…构成，尽管从意义上看是复数内容，但它的谓语动词仍用单数形式。如：

More than one student has read the book.Many a girl has been there.但是，“more +复数名词+than one”结构之后，谓语动词一般多用复数形式。如： More members than one are against your plan.8）一些有两个部分构成的名词表示衣物或工具作主语时，谓语动词通常用复数形式，例如：glasses, clothes, trousers, shoes, compasses, chopsticks, scissors等。但如果主语用“a kind of, a pair of , a series of等加名词”构成时，谓语动词一般用单数形式。如：

A pair of shoes was on the desk.9）this kind of book =a book of this kind（这种书），其谓语动词用单数；短语this kind of men =men of this kind =these kind of men(口语)（这一类人），但this kind of men的谓语动词用单数，men of this kind和these kind of men的谓语动词用复数，all kinds of后跟复数名词，谓语动词用复数形式。如：

This kind of men is dangerous.Men of this kind are dangerous.10）复数形式的单、复数同形名词作主语时，按意义一致原则，作用单数意义时，谓语用单数，反之，谓语用复数。这类名词有：means（方法），works（工厂），species（种类），Chinese，Japanese等。如：

The(This)glass works was set up in 1980.(这家玻璃厂建于1980年。)The（These）glass works are near the railway station.（这些玻璃厂在火车站附近。）当它们前面有a, such a , this, that修饰时，谓语用单数；有all, such, these, those修饰时，谓语用复数，但means, no means, the means等词前没有以上修饰词时，可用作单数，也可用作复数。

11）如果名词词组中心词是all，most, half, rest等词语，所指的复数意义，谓语动词用复数形式；反之，用单数。如：

All of my classmates like music.All of the water is gone.12)在主谓倒装的句子中，谓语动词的数应与其后的主语一致。如： Between the two windows hangs a picture.2．由连接词连接的名词作主语

1）用and或both…and连接并列主语，谓语动词通常用复数形式。如： Plastics and rubber never rot.Walking and riding are good exercises.但是，并列主语如果指的是同一个人、同一事物或同一概念时，谓语动词用单数形式，这时and后面的名词没有冠词。如：

Truth and honesty is the best policy.The girl’s teacher and friend is a young doctor.To love and to be loved is great happiness.Going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit.A knife and fork is on the table.2）当主语后面跟有as well as, as much as, no less than, along with, with, like, rather than, together with, but, except, besides, including, in addition to等引导的词组时，其谓语动词的单、复数而定。如：

The teacher as well as the students was reading in the library.３）以or, either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also等连接的名词（代词）作主语时，谓语动词的单复数应根据就近一致的原则。如：

Tom or his brothers are waiting in the room.Either you or he is to go.3．代词作主语

1）名词性物主代词作主语时，既可以用作单数，也可以用作复数，这取决于它所代替的是单数还是复数。如：

Ours(Our Party)is a great party.Your shoes are black, and mine(=my shoes)are brown.2）such, the same起指示代词作用时，应根据其所指的内容来决定单、复数。如： Such is our plan.Such are his words.3）关系代词who, that, which等在定语从句中作主语时，其谓语动词的数应与句中先行词的数一致。如：

Those who want to go please put up your hands.Some of the energy that is used by man comes from the sun.4）疑问代词who, what, which作主语时，谓语动词可根据说话人所要表达的意思决定单、复数。如：

Who lives next door ? It is Xiao Liu.Who live next door ? It is Zhang and Liu.What produce(s)heat ?

5）不定代词any, either, neither, none, all some, more等作主语时，有以下两种情况：

单独作主语时，视其在文中的意义，动词用单数或复数形式，例如： Now all has been changed.All are present.either, neither单独作主语时，谓语通常用单数。

但后接of时，若of的宾语为不可数名词，动词当然用单数形式，若of的宾语为复数名词或代词时，动词可以是单数，也可以是复数，在正式文体中，单数形式的动词更常用。如：

Do(es)any of you know his address ? None of them has(have)seen the film.4．分数、量词作主语

1）“分数或百分数+名词”构成的短语以及由“a lot of, lots of plenty of, a large quantity of, a heap of, heaps of, half of +名词”构成的短语作主语时，其谓语动词要与短语中of后面的名词的数保持一致，这是因为短语中后面的名词是中心词，而短语中前面的量词是修饰语，例如：

Lots of damage was caused by fire.About three-fourths of the earth’s surface is covered with water.Three-fifths of the workers here are women.和这种情况类似的还有“a number of+名词复数”，但是，“the number of +名词”的中心词却是number, 试比较：

A number of students have gone home.The number of pages in this book is two hundred.注意：(large)quantities of修饰可数或不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词一般用复数，例如：

Quantities of food(nuts)were on the table.短语in quantity, in large quantities意为“大量”；in small quantities意为“少量”。2）a great deal of , a large amount of修饰不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数；large amounts of修饰不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词通常用复数，例如：

A large amount of(A great deal of)damage was done in a very short time.Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.3）表示数量的one and a half后，名词要用复数形式，但是其短语作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式，例如：

One and a half bananas is left on the table.4）half of,(a)part of修饰可数名词单数及不可数名词时，谓语动词用单数，修饰可数名词复数时，谓语动词用复数。

5．名词化的形容词作主语

如果主语由“the+形容词（或过去分词）”结构担任时，谓语通常用复数，这类词有：the brave, the poor, the rich, the blind, the young, the old, the sick, the dead, the deaf and dumb, the oppressed, the injured, the wounded, the unemployed等；但也有少数的过去分词与定冠词连用时指个别，则用单数。如：

The blind study in special schools.The departed was a well-known engineer.这类形容词或分词如果要表示个体时，就要与名词man, person或表示人的单数连和，如：an old man, a rich person, the(a)wounded soldier 6．从句作主语

1）由what引导的主语从句，谓语动词通常用单数，但所指的具体内容是复数意义时，谓语动词一般用复数形式，例如：

What we need is more time.What we need are doctors.2）在“one of+复数名词++who/that/which”引导的从句结构中，关系代词who/that/which的先行词是靠近它的复数名词而不是one，因此，从句中的动词应该是复数形式。如：

This is one of the most interesting stories that have been told.但是当one之前有the only等修饰语时，关系代词的先行词是one，而不是靠近它的复数名词，因此从句的动词应是单数形式。如：

She was the only one of the girls who was late.
