英语中主语和谓语动词之间的数的一致关系是比较难掌握的。通常情况下,主语的单、复形式决定着谓语动词采取相应的形式,但在运用中却会遇到复杂的情况,现介绍如下: 1.谓语动词必须与作主语的名词的人称或人称代词人称和数保持一致。如: Comrade Chen teaches us English The children are watching TV now. 2.两个单数主语用and 连接,谓语动词用复数。如: Tom and Jack are playing table tennis. 但当and 联接的两个主语只表示一个人、一件事或一个概念,谓语动词用单数。如: The teacher and writer is coming here. 如果and 连接的几个单数名词用no、each或every等词修饰,谓语动词则用单数。如: No bird and no beast is seen in that island. 3.many a 或more than one 修饰主语时,谓语动词多用单数。如: Many a student has done this. More than one person was playing basketball on the playground. 4.由as well as、together with、no less than 等短语连接的两个主语,谓语动词要和前面的主语保持一致。如: He as well as you is wrong. Mr. Green,together with his wife and children has come to China. The audience was no less than five thousand. 5.用or、either…or…、neither…nor…、not only…but also…等连接的两个单数主语,谓语动词与最邻近的一个主语在人称和数上保持一致。如: Neither he nor I have been to Beijing. Either he or his wife hasn?蒺t come. Not only his father but also his friends are glad to help him. 6.由some、any 、no、every等词构成的合成词作主语时,谓语动词用单数。如: There is nobody in the room. Something is wrong with my watch. 7.如果名词词组中心词是all、most、half或the rest,其主谓一致关系应根据所表达的意思来确定。如果所指的是单数意思,谓语动词应用单数形式;如果所指的是复数意思,谓语动词则用复数形式。如: Half of the building has been built these years. Half of the students are boys in our class. 8.代词both、a few、many作主语时,谓语动词用复数。如: Both are doing their maths exercises. 但代词such、either、neither或much作主语时则用单数形式。如: Neither of us has been to the Great Wall. 9.a kind of+名词、this kind of+名词,无论名词是单复数形式,谓语动词都用单数。如: There is a kind of rose(或roses) in the park. 有时kind of 之前的限定词和之后的名词都是复数形式,谓语动词也用复数形式。如: Those kinds of flowers are very beautiful. 但all kinds of, many kinds of后跟名词复数形式,谓语动词也用复数形式。如: All kinds of birds went there. 10.a number of后接名词时须用复数形式,而the number of 则用单数形式。如: A number of students are playing football on the playground now. The number of birds is two hundred. 11.主语是表示抽象概念的动词不定式、动名词或从句时,谓语动词用单数。如: To learn English well isn’t easy. Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes. 12.复数词形的单数名词作主语时,谓语动词用单数。如: Physics is a very interesting subject. 13.there、here引起的句子,如果有几个主语时,谓语动词形式应和最靠近的主语一致。如: There is a bed, two chairs and three desks in the room. There are three desks ,two chairs and a bed in the room. Here is a table, some chairs, and a few desks in the room. 14.表示数量、长度、时间、重量等复数名词作主语时,谓语动词一般用单数。如: Five minutes is enough. Five thousand dollars is more than I can afford. 15.集体名词作主语时,如果作为一个整体看待时,谓语动词用单数。如果作为一个个成员来考虑,则用复数形式。如: The family are watching TV in the room. My family is a big one 16.people、police作主语时,谓语动词用复数。如: Several hundred police are on duty. 17.两个作主语用的名词或代词由介词with连接时,谓语动词一般与with 前面的一个名词或代词的人称和数一致。如: A woman with a boy is coming this afternoon. 18.以定冠词the+形容词(或分词)作主语时,谓语动词单、复数形式往往根据所表达的意思来确定。如: The sick have been cured and the lost have been found. 19.one of +复数名词作主语时,谓语动词须用单数形式。如: One of the students has caught the thief. 20.单复数同形的一些名词,作主语时须根据所表达的意思来确定。如: One sheep is missing, the other three are under the tree. 21.what、who、which、more、all、none 等作主语时,谓语动词可用复数,也可用单数,视具体情况而定。如: None knows(know) what he has done. 22.在两个相加等于一个数的等式中,谓语动词用单复数均可。如: Three plus four is(are) seven. 23.在each…and each…或every…and every…之后的名词,谓语动词用单数。如: Each boy and each girl has a flower. 24.关系代词作宾语从句的主语时,从句的谓语动词必须与关系代词的先行词保持人称和数的一致。如: The man who is under the tree is my teacher. 25.某些不定代词为了避免必须标明性别的困难,可用复数形式。如: Every boy is ready now, aren?蒺t they?
