主谓一致问题

主谓一致是指主语与谓语在数上要一致。把握主谓一致问题,考生主要解决的是对不同结构的主语单复数的认定,进而选择适当的谓语。解决主谓一致主要遵循三个原则:

语法一致原则意义一致原则就近一致原则

很多情况下应该综合利用这三个原则来处理主谓一致,在不同情况下可能应用三个原则中的不同原则,具体应用哪种原则应该视具体情况而定。总结如下:

一.谓语动词用单数的情况

1.动名词短语、不定式短语、名词性从句做主语,谓语用单数。如:

Buying clothes is often a time-consuming job because those clothes that a person likes are rarely the cones that fit him or her.

To understand the situation completely requires more thought than has been given thus far.

2.表示时间、距离、金额、重量、面积、体积、容积等度量的名词短语做主语时,谓语用单数。Two weeks was too long

Five times five makes twenty five

3.一般用and连接的两个单词或短语做主语时候,谓语用复数,但是下面用and连接的主语表示一个概念,谓语用单数:

law and order 法制 soap and water 肥皂水

a cup and saucer 茶杯碟子 fork and knife 刀叉

the needle and thread 针线trial and error 反复尝试,不断摸索

horse and carriage 马车 time and tide 岁月

bread and butter 奶油面包the ebb and flow 盛衰,潮涨潮落

如:If law and order not preserved, neither the citizen nor his property is safe.

A. is

B. are

C. was d. were 答案:A。

4.表示学科和某些疾病名称的名词是复数形式,作主语时候谓语动词用单数形式

Linguistics is a branch of study on human language.

5.有些名词形式上是复数,意义上是单数,根据意义一致原则动词用单数

The chaos was stopped by the police

The news is a great encouragement to us

A series of debates between the lectures was scheduled for the next weekend.

6.用and 连接的成份表示一个单一概念时候,动词谓语用单数形式

Bread and butter is our daily food

Time and tide waits for no man

7.family,team ,audience,class,club,company,crew,enemy,crowd,government,group,party,public,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.他的家庭是一个幸福的家庭。

The whole family are watching TV.全家人都在看电视。

8.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.孩子们都想去看电影。

9 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. 很多学生读过这本书。

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. 许多成员反对你的计划。

10 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。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.桌子上有一双鞋。

11 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.这一种人很危险。

Men of this kind are dangerous.这种类型的人很危险。

12 复数形式的单、复数同形名词作主语时,按意义一致原则,用作单数意义时,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。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。

13 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 cl assmates like music.我的同学都喜欢音乐。

All of the water is gone.所有的水都没了。

二.谓语用复数情况

1.由and, both …and, 连接的并列主语,和both ,a few, many ,several 等修饰语后面谓语动词通常用复数形式。

Few people know he and I were classmates when we were at college.

2.集体名词police, public, militia, cattle ,class ,youth后常用复数形式的动词

The Chinese people are brave and hardworking

The cattle are grazing in the sunshine

3.当表示民族的词与冠词合用当主语,谓语动词用复数形式

The Japanese were once very aggressive

4.某些形容词前面加定冠词表示一类人,做主语时候,谓语动词用复数

The rich are not always selfish

5.不可数名词作主语,其前有表示数量的复数名词修饰时,谓语动词用复数

Three million tons of coal were exported that year

三.谓语动词可用单数,也可以用复数的情况

1.就近一致原则

这种情况下,谓语动词使用单数还是复数取决于最靠近该动词的主语的单复数,存在这种情况的主要由以下几种可能:

1)由连词either…or…; neither…nor…; whether… or…;not only…but (also) ;or 等连接的并列主语Neither money nor fame has influence on me

Not only you but also he is wrong

2) 在倒装结构中,谓语动词与后面的第一个主语一致

Blocking the open-sided porch, framed by the enveloping fog, stands a tall grave-faced policeman.

Just outside the ruins is a magnificent building surrounded by tall trees.

Although a great number of houses in that area are still in need of repair, there has been improvement in the facili

2.主语带有(together/along)with, such as, accompanied by, as well as, no less than, except, besides, with, combined with, in addition to , including, together with 等等附加成分,谓语的数不受附加成分的影响仍然与主语保持一致

Professor Taylor , with six of his students ,is attending a conference in Boston organized to compare current practice in the United States with those of other nations.

The president of the college, together with the deans, is planning a conference for the purpose of laying down certain regulations. (1981年考研题)

3.关系代词做主语的定语从句中,谓语的数要与先行词一致。

4.一些表示数量的短语与名词连用时候,谓语动词的数取决于名词的数,名词是复数,谓语动词用复数,反之就用单数。这些短语包括:a lot of /lots of; plenty of/heaps of; half of; two-third (three-fourth…) of; eighty(ten, twenty…) percent; part of; rest of ; none of 等等

Two-thirds of people present are women

Lots of damage was caused by the fire

5.集体名词作主语时,谓语动词的数取决于主语表示的意思和数,当表示整体时候,谓语动词就用单数,当强调集体中的个体时候,谓语动词就用复数。这些集体名词如:army, audience, band ,government ,group ,flock, police, public ,staff ,team ,troop. Crowd, firm, family 等等

The family is the basic unit of our society

The family were watching the TV

The audience was enormous

The audience were greatly moved at the words

6.谓语通常用复数,在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等谓语通常用复数,;

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.盲人在特殊的学校学习。

这类形容词或分词如果要表示个体时,就要与名词man,person或表示人的单数名词连用,如:an old man,a rich person,the(a)wounded soldier。

7.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,如:

What we need is more time.我们所需要的是更多的时间。

What we need are doctors.我们所需要的是医生。

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.

这是讲过的最有趣的故事之一。

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.她是惟一一位迟到的女生。

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.想去的请举手。

Some of the energy that is used by man comes from the sun.

人类使用的一些能源来自太阳。

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.谁住在隔壁?是小刘。

What produce(s) heat? 什么产生热量?

8.某些固定结构中主语与谓语的数:

第一组:

a great many + 可数名词复数谓语用复数 a number of + 可数名词复数谓语用复数the majority of + 可数名词复数谓语用复数

第二组;

the number of + 可数名词复数谓语用单数each/every + 可数名词复数谓语用单数neither/either of + 可数名词复数谓语用单数one and a half + 可数名词复数谓语用单数One and a half bananas is left on the table.桌子上有一个半香蕉。

第三组;

more than one + 可数名词单数谓语用单数

many a + 可数名词单数谓语用单数

第四组;

the greater part of a large proportion of 50% of one third of plenty of the rest of

谓语的数与of 后面的名词一致

第五组;

(n)either…(n)or….not only….. but also ……not …..but ……

谓语的数与主语的第二部分(即(n)or/ but also/ but引导的后面部分)一致.

注意比较:

More students than one have been referred to

More than one student is going to buy this book

第六组

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; (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,如:

Quantities of food (nuts) were on the table.大量的食物在桌子上。

Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.大量的钱花在了这座桥上。

第七组

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,如:

About three fourths of the earth’s surface is covered with water.

地球的四分之三被水覆盖。

Three fifths of the workers here are women.这个地方五分之三的工人是妇女。

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.许多学生都回家了。

The number of pages in this book is two hundred.这本书中的页码是二百。

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.

主谓一致知识点总结(word)

主谓一致知识点总结(word) 一、主谓一致 1.—Mum,____ofthe apples____gone bad. —We'd better eat up the rest as soon as possible. A.one third; have B.one thirds; have C.one third; has D.first three; has 【答案】A 【解析】 试题分析:句意:-妈妈,三分之一的苹果已经坏了。-我们最好尽快吃了。在英语中的分数,分子用基数词,分母用序数词,当分子大于一时,分母要用复数形式。所以选A。 考点:考查分数及主谓一致。 2.Not only his friends but also he ________ always interested in science fiction. A.show B.shows C.are D.is 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】 句意:不仅他的朋友,而且他总是对科幻小说感兴趣。考查主谓一致。not only…but also连接两个主语的时候,谓语动词的数由离其最近的主语来决定,即就近原则,所以此处要根据he来确定谓语动词的形式;因为后面是interested in,所以用be interested in“对…感兴趣”,所以谓语动词用is;故答案选D。 3. students in our class going to the summer camp in Beijing next week. A.Two fifths; is B.Second fifths; are C.Second fifths; is D.Two fifths; are 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】 句意:我们班五分之二的学生打算下周去北京参加夏令营。 表达分数时,分子用基数词,分母用序数词,因此五分之二的表达应该是two fifths,排除B,C;分数后面的名词为复数名词students,根据主谓一致的原则,只能用are,故答案选D。 【点睛】

主谓一致

【学习目标】 1.掌握英语主谓一致的一般规律,熟练运用人称和数上与主语保持一致的原则。 2.能够在书面表达中杜绝主谓一致方面的错误。 【重点难点】 1.谓语动词用单数的种种情况。 2.就近原则。 3.定语从句中的主谓一致。 【使用说明】 本语法学案难度较大。希望大家仔细研读,认真领会,能独立在40分钟内完成。 【自学指导】 事实上,从小学到现在同学们学习英语的八年中,主谓一致和大家一直相伴左右。现在无非就是进行了综合归纳。建议大家随着讲解,一一恢复这八年关于主谓一致的记忆。 【自主学习】 主谓一致指的是谓语动词在人称和数上必须与主语保持一致。处理主谓一致问题,可依据三项原则:语法上一致、意义上一致和就近一致。根据这些原则,总结如下: (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,谓语动词一般要用单数动词。例如:To work hard _____ necessary.努力工作是必要的。 Reading without comprehension is no good.只读不理解是不好的。 It pays to work hard. 天道酬勤。 (2)表示时间、距离、金额、重量、面积、体积、容积等度量的名词短语做主语时,谓语用_____。例如:Two weeks was too long.两周太长了。 Ten dollars is a small sum.十美元是个小数目。 Five times five makes twenty five.五乘以五是二十五。 One and a half bananas is left on the table.一只半香蕉留在桌子上。 (3)主语是单数时,尽管后面跟as well as (以及),no less than (不少于……,多达),rather than(而不是),more than(不止是,超过),but(除了),except(除……外),besides( 加之,还有),with(和……一起,和……一块儿),along with(跟……一起),accompanied by ( 由……陪同),combined with(加上),in addition to(除……以外),including(包括),together with(与……一起)等,谓语动词仍用______形式。 Every teacher as well as his students _____ (hope) to see their progress. (4)某些不定代词,如:either, neither, each, one, other, another, anybody, anyone, anything,somebody,someone,something,everybody,everyone,everything,nobody,no one, nothing 等,当他们做主语时,其谓语动词通常用单数形式。 例如:Each of the boys ____ an apple.每个孩子都有苹果。 Somebody is using the phone.有人正在用电话。 Everything around us is matter.我们周围一切都是物质。 (5)用and连接的并列成分前面有each, every, many a, no等词修饰时,意义为单数,动词也相应地用单数形式。 例如:In China, every boy and girl ____ the right to compulsory education.在中国每个儿童都有权利接受义务教育。(注意:上学期练习题中曾经考查过) Each man and woman who ____ the TOEFL is supposed to get the score report in five weeks.参加托福考试的每个人都能在五个星期内收到成绩通知单。 Many a student and teacher _____ seen the film.不少老师和学生都看过这部影片。 (6) none(of+名词或代词)在正式文体中被看做单数,谓语动词用单数,但非正式文体中也可以用复数。 例如:None of us seem to have thought of it.我们中似乎没有人想到它。 “Is there any letter for me?” “Sorry, there’s none.”“有我的信吗”?“对不起,没有。” None of the drivers has (have) turned up.一个司机都没有来。 【探究提升】 (1)用and, both...and连接的并列主语,或在both,(a)few, many, several等修饰语后面谓语动词通常用复数形式。 例如:Plastics and rubber never rot.塑料和橡胶永不生锈。 He and I _____classmates when we were at college.他和我大学时曾是同班同学。 ____ _____these novels _____ interesting.这两部小说都有意思。 Few people know it.几乎无人知道。 (2)集体名词people, police, public, militia, cattle, class, youth等,常用复数形式的谓语动词。 例如:The Chinese people are brave and hardworking.中国人民是勤劳勇敢的。 Most police wear uniforms.绝大多数警察穿制服。 The cattle are grazing in the sunshine.一群牛在阳光下吃草。 (3)当表示民族的词与冠词合用充当主语时,谓语动词用复数形式。 例如:The Japanese were once very aggressive.日本人曾是很具有侵略性的。 The English are more conservative and less talkative than the Americans.英国人比美国人保守且不爱说话。 (4)某些形容词前面加定冠词表示一类人。作主语时,谓语动词用复数。

语法复习二、主谓一致 语法复习二、主谓一致 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。如:His faworkingarm. / To study English wellasy. / What he said is vant for us all. / The children wlawo hours ago. / Readingun is bad for you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。如:What I bought wglish 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 ward the news. / Band he are

Young P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, evan 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 wa/ No boy and no girl l、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 thaan, 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 Ggether wwife and children, haa. / Nobody but Jim and Mike walayground. / She, like you and Tom, is very tall. 4、ach, every 或no +单数名词和由some, avery 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 ma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。如:Nxts is (are)g. 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。如:None of us has (have) been to America.

【英语】初中英语主谓一致易错题精选经典1

【英语】初中英语主谓一致易错题精选经典1 一、主谓一致 1.Everyone in my class except Tom and Mary to Beijing. A.have been B.have gone C.has been 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】 句意:除了汤姆和玛丽之外,我们班上每个人都去过北京。考查现在完成时。由句意可知句子时态为现在完成时,构成为:have /has+动词过去分词;have been to表示去过某地,已经回来;have gone to表示去了某地,可能在路上,也可能已经到达;根据Everyone in my class except Tom and Mary to Beijing.可知,这里表示除了汤姆和玛丽之外,我们班上每个人都去过北京,说明去过北京都已经回来了,所以用have been to。本句的主语是everyone,所以助动词用has,故答案选C。 2.There _____ a football match on TV this evening. A.will have B.is going to be C.has D.is going to have 【答案】B 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】 句意:今天晚上电视上将有一场足球赛。 本句时态为将来时,将来时态有两种表达方式,一种是will+动词原形,另一种是be going to+动词原形,本句用到there be 句型,故选B。 3.—What’s in the picture on the wall? —There a teacher and some students playing soccer on the playground.

(完整版)高一英语“主谓一致”用法归纳

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.

小学英语语法中的主谓一致

小学英语语法中的主谓一致 1) 语法形式上要一致,即单复数形式与谓语要一致。 2) 意义上要一致,即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。 3) 就近原则,即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语, 一般来说,不可数名词用动词单数,可数名词复数用动词复数。 There is much water in the thermos. 但当不可数名词前有表示数量的复数名词时,谓语动词用复数形式。 Ten thousand tons of coal were produced last year. 1 并列结构作主语时谓语用复数 Reading and writing are very important. 注意:当主语由and连结时,如果它表示一个单一的概念,即指同一人或同一物时,谓语动词用单数,and 此时连接的两个词前只有一个冠词。 The iron and steel industry is very important to our life. 典型例题 The League secretary and monitor ___ asked to make a speech at the meeting.

A. is B. was C. are D. were 答案B. 注:先从时态上考虑。这是过去发生的事情应用过去时,先排除A.,C.。本题易误选D,因为The League secretary and monitor 好象是两个人,但仔细辨别,monitor 前没有the,在英语中,当一人兼数职时只在第一个职务前加定冠词。后面的职务用and 相连。这样本题主语为一个人,所以应选B。 2 主谓一致中的靠近原则 1)当there be 句型的主语是一系列事物时,谓语应与最邻近的主语保持一致。 There is a pen, a knife and several books on the desk.. There are twenty boy-students and twenty-three girl-students in the class. 2)当either or 与neither nor,连接两个主语时,谓语动词与最邻近的主语保持一致。如果句子是由here, there引导,而主语又不止一个时,谓语通常也和最邻近的主语一致。 Either you or she is to go. Here is a pen, a few envelops and some paper for you. 3 谓语动词与前面的主语一致
