2020高考英语你准备好了吗？主谓一致是什么？是指一个句子的主语与谓语的语法形式必须在人称和数上保持一致。 近年来主要考查名词、代词、不定式、动名词等作主语和there be句型的主谓一致。当两个或两个以上作主语的单数名词用and, both ...and连接，并表示两个不同的概念时，谓语动词用复数形式。启达教育老师为你整理了2020届高三一轮复习英语——主谓一致，希望能够对你有所帮助！

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。例如：

Jane and Mary look healthy and strong.

The number of mistakes was surprising.

解释：主语是 the number,谓语是 was对于数字而言，它是单数，所以用了was；

反思：the number of通常跟 a number of 来对比，a number of 是大量的的意思；后面通常是可数名词的复数，所以谓语也跟着用复数形式，比如 a number of people are rushing to the toilet.

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。例如：

The crowd were running for their lives.

单数形式表示复数意义的词有people，police，cattle，militia等。

2.主语形式为复数而意义上却是单数，谓语动词用单数。 例如：

The news was very exciting.

形复意单的单词有news，works(工厂)和一些以ics结尾的学科名称，如physics，politics，mathematics等。

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...nor，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。例如：

Either your students or Mr. Wang knows this．

应注意的几个问题

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。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.

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．

2.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.

3.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.

18)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.
