重点 主谓一致
主谓一致是指谓语在人称和数上必须和主语的人称和数保持一致。主谓一致有三个原则：语法一致原则、意义一致原则和“就近原则”。
语法一致：主语的单复数决定了谓语的单复数形式。
1.单数名词、单数代词、不可数名词、动名词、动词不定式或从句作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。复数名词或代词以及两个或两个以上的动名词、不定式或从句作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
例句：It is important to remember that success is a sum of small efforts made each day and often takes years to achieve. 成功是每天微小努力的累积，通常需要多年的努力才能实现，记住这一点很重要。
特别注意：what引导的从句作主语时，谓语动词一般用单数形式；但如果从句表示复数含义，谓语动词则用复数形式。
例句：What you need is a good meal. 你需要的是一顿美餐。；What the school needs are qualified teachers. 这个学校需要的是合格的教师。
2.and、both… and…连接两个不同的主语，谓语动词用复数；但当and不表示并列意义，而连接两个在意义上表示同一人、物或概念或由两个部件组成的物品时，谓语动词用单数形式。如：the poet and writer（这位诗人兼作家）、bread and butter（黄油面包片；主要收入来源）、knife and fork（刀叉）、iron and steel（钢铁）、law and order（治安）、a watch and chain（链表）、a needle and thread（针线）。
例句：
Professor James will give us a lecture on the Western culture, but when and where hasn’t been decided. 詹姆斯教授将给我们作一次关于西方文化的讲座，但是时间和地点还没有定下来。
A poet and artist is coming to speak to us about Chinese literature and painting tomorrow afternoon. 一位诗人兼艺术家明天下午要来给我们讲一讲中国文学和绘画。
3.如果由with、along with、together with、as well as、besides、like、rather than、except、including、but、in addition to等词或短语连接名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词必须与前面的名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。
例句：Generally, students’ inner motivation with high expectations from others is essential to their development. 一般说来，学生的内在动机以及来自他人的高期望对其自身的发展至关重要。
4.one、another、the other、either、each等作主语，以及复合不定代词somebody、anybody、something、nothing等作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
5.trousers、scissors、pants、shoes、gloves、glasses等名词作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。但如果这类名词前用了a pair of/two (three)… pairs of来修饰，谓语动词的单复数往往取决于pair的单复数形式。
6.“more than one/many a+单数可数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
7.定语从句中关系代词who、which、that在从句中作主语时，定语从句的谓语动词与定语从句所修饰的先行词在人称和数上保持一致。
意义一致：不管主语的形式是单数还是复数，主语的意义决定了谓语动词的单复数形式。
1.以-ics结尾的学科名称如physics、politics；国名如the United States；报纸名如The New York Times；书名如Great Expectations（《远大前程》）以及机构名如the United Nations等作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
2.集体名词作主语，谓语动词可用单数形式，也可用复数形式。强调整体时用单数，强调整体中的个体时用复数。这类名词有family、class、crowd、team、group、committee、audience等。注意：当主语是people、police、cattle等集体名词时，谓语动词用复数形式。
例句：Dairy cattle are now specialized animals, and most of them give large volumes of milk. 乳牛现为特化动物，大多数产奶量大。
3.all、more、some、any、none等作主语或修饰名词作主语时，谓语动词的单复数形式视情况而定，可用单数形式，也可用复数形式。但当它们指代不可数名词时看作单数，谓语动词用单数形式。
例句：All we need is a small piece of land where we can plant various kinds of fruit trees throughout the growing seasons of the year. 我们所需要的是一小块土地，在整个一年的生长季节里，我们能够种各种不同的果树。
4.有些名词单复数形式相同，作主语时，谓语动词的数根据主语表达的概念而定。这类名词有means、deer、sheep、Chinese、Japanese、fish等。
5.“the rest of/half of/the majority of/part of/a lot of/lots of/plenty of+名词”以及“分数/百分数+of+名词”等结构作主语时，谓语动词的单复数取决于of后面名词的数及其所表示的意义。
例句：One-third of the area is covered with trees and the majority of the trees are over 60 years old. 这个地区三分之一的面积被树木覆盖，而且大多数树木的树龄在60年以上。
6.表示时间、金钱、距离、重量等的复数名词作主语时，通常被看作整体，谓语动词用单数形式。
7.“each/every/no+单数名词”或“each/every/no+单数名词+and+each/every/no+单数名词”结构作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
例句：Every boy and every girl wishes to attend the English Evening to be held on Saturday. 每个男生和女生都希望参加在星期六举办的英语晚会。
8.“a number of +复数名词”作主语时，意为“许多……”，谓语动词用复数形式；“the number of +复数名词”作主语时，意为“……的数量”，谓语动词用单数形式。“a quantity of +复数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式；“a quantity of +不可数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
9.表示一类人的“the+形容词”作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
就近原则：谓语动词的单复数形式取决于最靠近它的主语。
1.用作主语的两个名词或代词由连词or、either… or…、neither… nor…、not only… but also…等连接时，谓语动词的单复数形式应与离其最近的名词或代词保持一致。
例句：Either you or one of your students is to attend the meeting that is due tomorrow. 你或你的一名学生要去参加明天召开的会议。
2.在表存在的there be句型中，主语是两个或多个并列名词（短语）时，be的形式与离其最近的一个名词（短语）在数上保持一致。
例句：There is a book and two pens on the desk. 桌子上有一本书和两支钢笔。
