Each of the students in our class has an English-Chinese dictionary.三、“名词名词”作主语时的主谓一致。 当表示同一人物或观点时，谓语动词用单数。如：A novelist and playwright is coming to our school. 这里表示“一位小说家兼剧作家”，是同一个人，所以谓语动词用单数。 如果是A novelist and a playwright作主语，这时表示“一位小说家和一位剧作家”，是两个人，所以谓语动词用复数，该句应改为：A novelist and a playwright are coming to our school.四、The adj.作主语时的主谓一致。 当The adj.表示抽象的含义时，谓语动词用单数。如：The beautiful is the true.当The adj.表示该类全体的含义时，谓语动词用复数。如：The rich should help the poor.必修4词组归纳总结Unit 11.in pairs 成对 2.give reasons for 给理由3.improve prison conditions改善监狱的条件 4.the Nobel Peace Prize诺贝尔和平奖5.one of the top leaders高级领导人之一6.concern oneself with 让自己关注 (be concerned about对担心)7.welfare projects福利项目 8.China Welfare Institute中国福利协会9.show the conncetion between and显示出和之间的联系10.fight for为而战 11.putto death将处死12.a specialist in womens illnesses妇科疾病的专家13.devote all her life to将自己的一生献给 致力于14.rather than而不是 15.behave like humans像人类的举止16.the night before前一天晚上 17.wonder off离开18.make it all worthwhile使值得 19.come into ones arms回到的怀抱20.fully understand完全理解21.observe and record their daily activities观察记录他们的日常活动22.be determined to下定决心 23.communicatewith与交流24.work out their social system勾勒出他们的社会体系25.the rest of the world世界上的其他人26.argue f
