专题要点】主谓一致考点概览：1.集合名词作主语时的主谓一致；2.主语从句作主语时谓语的确定；3.or, either---or, nor, neither---nor, not only-----but (also), not---but等连接两个并列主语时的主谓一致情况；4.主语+as well as, with, together with, along with, rather than, but, except, besides等词时的主谓一致；5.由不同数词修饰的名词作主语时谓语的确定；6.定语从句中谓语的数；7.the+形容词作主语时谓语的确定；8.时间、距离等度量名词作主语时谓语的数。
【考纲要求】考纲要求考生掌握主谓一致的三大原则即语法一致、逻辑意义一致、就近原则；掌握主谓一致的特殊用法；学会分析句式，排除干扰，分清主谓，明了句子的主谓关系。
【教法指引】分析近五年来的高考题可以发现，高考对主谓一致的考查几乎每年都有所涉及，但题量不大，其因为是这项语法用法比较固定、单纯，教师只要给学生讲清主谓一致的“三大原则”，让学生记住这些用法就能很好地把这项语法学会；当然高考命题多以特殊点为切入点，让学生注意三大原则里边的一些变化如：not only -----but also连接主语是应该按照就近原则。 not only he and she-----but also----这样的结构仍然还是就近原则，只不过主语为he and she。引导学生复习好主谓一致常考题型如：

【知识网络】 主谓一致用法
在英语句子里，谓语受主语支配，其动词必须和主语在人称和数上保持一致，这就叫主谓一致。寻其规律，大致可归纳为三个原则，即语法一致、逻辑意义一致和就近一致原则。
（一）语法一致原则：语法上一致就是谓语动词和主语在单、复数形式上保持一致。
1、以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；主语为复数时，谓语动词用复数形式。
His father is working on the farm. / To study English well is not easy. / What he said is very important for us all. / The children were in the classroom two hours ago. / Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes.
注意：由what引导的主语从句，后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式，但若表语是复数或what从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时，主句的谓语动词用复数形式。
What I bought were three English books. / What I say and do is (are) helpful to you.
2、由连接词and或both ... and连接起来的合成主语后面，要用复数形式的谓语动词。如：Lucy and Lily are twins. / She and I are classmates. / The boy and the girl were surprised when they heard the news. / Both she and he are Young Pioneers.
注意：① 若and所连接的两个词是指同一个人或物时，它后面的谓语动词就应用单数形式。如：The writer and artist has come.; / ② 由and连接的并列单数主语前如果分别有no, each, every more than a (an) , many a (an)修饰时，其谓语动词要用单数形式。如：Every student and every teacher was in the room.. / No boy and no girl likes it.
3、主语为单数名词或代词，尽管后面跟有with, together with, except, but, like, as well as, rather than, more than, no less than, besides, including等引起的短语，谓语动词仍用单数形式；若主语为复数，谓语用复数形式。如：Mr Green, together with his wife and children, has come to China. / Nobody but Jim and Mike was on the playground. / She, like you and Tom, is very tall.
4、either, neither, each, every 或no +单数名词和由some, any, no, every构成的复合不定代词，都作单数看待。如：Each of us has a new book. / Everything around us is matter.
注意：① 在口语中当either或neither后跟有"of+复数名词（或代词）"作主语时，其谓语动词也可用复数。
Neither of the texts is (are) interesting.
② 若none of后面的名词是不可数名词，它的谓语动词就要用单数；若它后面的名词是复数，它的谓语动词用单数或复数都可以。
None of us has (have) been to America.
5、在定语从句时，关系代词that, who, which等作主语时，其谓语动词的数应与句中先行词的数一致。
He is one of my friends who are working hard.
注意：He is the only one of my friends who is working hard.
6、如果集体名词指的是整个集体，它的谓语动词用单数；如果它指集体的成员，其谓语动词就用复数形式。这些词有family, class, crowd, committee, population, audience等。
Class Four is on the third floor. / Class Four are unable to agree upon a monitor.
注意：people, police, cattle等名词一般都用作复数。如：The police are looking for the lost child.
7、由"a lot of, lots of, plenty of, the rest of, the majority of + 名词"构成的短语以及由"分数或百分数+名词"构成的短语作主语，其谓语动词的数要根据短语中后面名词的数而定。如：There are a lot of people in the classroom. / The rest of the lecture is wonderful. / 50% of the students in our class are girls.
注意： a number of"许多"，作定语修饰复数名词，谓语用复数；the number of"...的数量"，主语是number，谓语用单数。
8、在倒装句中，谓语动词的数应与其后的主语一致。如：There comes the bus./ On the wall are many pictures. / Such is the result. / Such are the facts.
（二）逻辑意义一致原则：逻辑意义一致就是谓语动词的数必须和主语的意义一致（因有时主语形式为单数，但意义为复数；有时形式为复数，但意义为单数）。
1、what, who, which, any, more, all等代词可以是单数，也可是复数，主要靠意思来决定。如：Which is your bag? / Which are your bags? / All is going well. / All have gone to Beijing.
2、表示"时间、重量、长度、价值"等的名词的复数作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数形式， 这是由于作主语的名词在概念上是一个整体，如：Thirty minutes is enough for the work.
3、若英语是书名、片名、格言、剧名、报名、国名等的复数形式，其谓语动词通常用单数形式。如： "The Arabian Nights"is an interesting story-book..
4、表数量的短语"one and a half"后接复数名词作主语时，其谓语动词可用单数形式（也可用复数。如：One and a half apples is (are) left on the table.
5、算式中表示数目（字）的主语通常作单数看待，其谓语动词采用单数形式。如：Twelve plus eight is twenty. / Fifty-six divided by eight is seven.
6、一些学科名词是以 -ics 结尾，如：mathematics, politics, physics 以及news, works等，都属于形式上是复数的名词，实际意义为单数名词，它们作主语时，其谓语动词要用单数形式。如：The paper works was built in 1990. / I think physics isn't easy to study.
7、trousers, glasses, clothes, shoes, 等词作主语时，谓语用复数，但如果这些名词前有a (the) pair of等量词修饰时，谓语动词用单数。如：My glasses are broken. / The pair of shoes under the bed is his.
8、"定冠词the + 形容词或分词"，表示某一类人时，动词用复数。
（三）就近一致原则：在英语句子中，有时谓语动词的人称和数与最近的主语保持一致。
1、当两个主语由either ... or, neither ... nor, whether ... or ..., not only ... but also连接时，谓语动词和邻近的主语一致。如：Either the teacher or the students are our friends. / Neither they nor he is wholly right. / Is neither he nor they wholly right?
2、there be句型be动词单复数取决于其后的主语。如果其后是由and连接的两个主语，则应与靠近的那个主语保持一致。如：There are two chairs and a desk in the room..
注意：Here引导的句子用法同上。
（四）主谓一致应注意的几个问题：
A)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。例如：
The whole family are watching TV?
His family is going to have a long journey．
这类名词有：audience，class，club，committee，company， crew，crowd，enemy，government，group，party，public，team，etc.
名词population一词的使用情况跟上述类似。例如：：
The population in China is very large，and eighty percent of the population in China are farmers.
“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，militia等)只当复数看待，谓语动词必须用复数。例如：
The police are searching for him．
3)单、复数同形的名词作主语时，谓语动词应根据意义决定单、复数。例如：
A sheep is over there,
Some sheep are over there．
4)名词所有格之后的名词被省略的情况一般只指商店、工场、住宅等，作主语时，动词一般用单数。例如：
My Uncle's is not far from here．
The doctor's is on the side of the street．
常见的省略名词有：the baker's，the barber's，the carpenter's，the Zhang's，etc,
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。例如：
Richardson's have a lot of leather 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。例如：
Five minutes is enough to do this exercise．
The Selected Poems of Li Bai was published long ago．
Three years has passed．
6)不定代词each，every，no所修饰的名词即使以and或逗号连接成多个并列主语，谓语动词仍用单数形式。例如：
Each boy and each girl wants to serve the people in the future．
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。例如：
Many a ship has been damaged in the storm．
More than one student has seen the film，
是，在“more+复数名词+than one\'’结构之后，谓语词一般用复数形式。例如：
More members than one are against your plan．
8)一些由两个部分构成的名词表示衣物或工具主语时；谓语通常用复数形式，如scissors，chopsticks，compasses，shoes，trousers，clothes，glasses等。但如果主语由“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。例如：
A pair of shoes was on the desk .
9)this kind of book=a book of this kind(这种书)，其谓语用单数；短语this kind of men=men of this kind=these kinds of men(口语)(这一类人)，但this kind of men的谓语用单数，
men of this kind和these kinds of men的谓语用复数。all kinds of后跟复数名词，谓语用复数形式。例如：
Men of this kind are dangerous．
This kind of men is dangerous．
10)复数形式的单、复数同形名词作主语时，按意义一致的原则，作单数意义时，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。例如：
The (This) glass works was set up in l970．
(这家玻璃厂建于1970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，可作单数，也可用作复数。
注：work作“工作”解时是不可数名词，作“著作”解时是可数名词，有单复数之分。
11)如果名词词组中心词是all，most；half，rest，part等词语，表示的是复数意义，谓语动词用复数形式；反之，用单数。例如：
All of the water is gone。
All of my classmates work hard．
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．
B)由连接词连接的名词作主语
13)用and或both...and连接并列主语，谓语动词通常用复数形式。例如：
Walking and riding are good exercises．
Plastics and rubber never rot．
但是，并列主语如果指的，是同一个人、同一事物或同一概念，谓语动词用：单数形式，这时，and后面的名词没有冠词。例如：
A knife and fork is on the table．
Going to bed early and getting up early is a good habit．
The girl\'s teacher and friend is a young doctor．
Truth and honesty is the best policy。
14)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、复数按主语的单、复数而定。例如：
The room with its furniture was rented．
The teacher as well as the students was excited．
15)以or，either...，neither...nor，not only…but also等连接的名词(代词)作主语，谓语动词的单复数应根据就近一致的原则。例如：
Neither you nor I nor anybody else knows anything about it
Either you or he is to go．
Tom or his brothers are waiting in the room．
C)代词作主语．’
16)名词型物主代词后的动词，既可以用单数，也可以用复数，这取决于它所代替的是单数还是复数。例如：
Ours(Our Party) is a great party．
our shoes are black，mine (=my shoes) are brown．
17)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。例如：
Such are his words．Such is our plan．
8)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。例如：
Some of the energy that is used by man comes from the sun．
Those who want to go please you’re your names here．
19)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。例如：
What produce(s)heat?
Which is (are) your book(s)?
Who live next door? It is Zhang and Liu．
Who lives next door? It is Xiao Liu．
20)不定代词．any，either，neither，none，all some，more等作主语时，有以下两种情况：
①单读用作主语时，视其在文中的意义，动词可用单数或复数形式。例如：
All are present．let\'s begin the meeting．
Now all has been changed．
either，neither单独作主语时，谓语通常用单数。
②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，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。
例如：
None of them has(have)seen the film ．
Do(es) any of you know his address?
D)分数、量词作主语
21)某数词单纯表示数字作主语时，其谓语动词通常用单数形式，但是当基数词表示的不是数值而是数量时，谓语动词可用复数形式。例如：
The billion is a large number．
Twelve were boys.
英语中算术式作主语时，若是减法或除法算术式，谓语通常用单数形式；若是加法和乘法，谓语动词有时也可用复数形式。例如：
Three times five is/are fifteen．
Two and (plus) two is/are four.
Twelve divided by four is three．
Three taken from eight leaves five．
在提问加、减、乘、除得数时，如用how much，谓语动词多用单数形式；如用how many，谓语动词多用复数形式。例如：
How many are two times five?
How much is eight divided by two?
22)．“分数或百分数+of+名词”构成短语，以及由“some，a lot of，lots of，plenty of，a(1arge)quantity of，the rest of，a heap of，heaps of+名词”构成短语时，其名词可以是可数名词或不可数名词。作主语时，采取就近一致的原则，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of后面的名词是中心词，而名词前面的量词是修饰语。例如：
A quantity of blouses were on sale．
A large quantity of beer was sold．
Plenty of English books are on the shelf．
Lots of damage was caused by fire．
Three-fifths of the workers here are women．
About three-fourths of the earth\'s surface is covered with water．
23)A(great)number of，many；a few修饰可数复数名词，
其短语作主语时，谓语动词用复数；a little，much，a great deal of，a large amount of修饰不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词用单数。例如： ；

A number of students have gone to the countryside to help
with the autumn harvest．
24)(large)quantities of修饰可数
复数名词或不可数名词其短语作主语时，谓语动词一般用复数。例如：

Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge．
25)The number+可数复数名词，the amount of+不可数名词，the quantity of+可数复数名词或不可数名词构成的短
语，作主语时，谓语动词用单数，例如：
The amount of money is great.
The quantity of heat in the office has not been increased．
The quantity of books in the library is amazing．
The number of students in our school is increasing．
26)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.
27)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。
E)名词化的形容词作主语，
28)如果主语由“the+形容词或过去分词)”结构充当时。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。例如：
The departed(死者) was a well-known engineer．
The blind study in special schools．
这类形容词或分词如果要表示个体时，就要与名词／man，person或表示人的单数连用。如：all old man，a rich person，the(a)wounded soldier
F)从句作主语从句，不定式，-ing形式等做主语时，一般被看作一个整体，谓语动词应用单数。

What he said and what he did were always different.（如果主语是两个（或两个以上）的名词性从句，谓语动词常用复数。）
29)由what引导的主语从句，谓语动词通常用单数；所指的具体内容若是复数意义，谓语动词一般用复数形式。例如：
What we need are doctors．
What we need is more time．
30）在复数名词引导的从句结构中，关系代词的先行词是靠近它的复数名词而不是，因此，从句中的动词应该是复数形式。例如：
This is one of the most interesting questions that have been asked.
但是，当之前有等修饰时，关系代词的先行词是，而不是靠近它的复数名词，因此从句的动词应是单数形式。
she was the only one of the girls who was late for the meeting.
