2011-08-02 11:41主谓一致原则：语法一致 ,意义一致 ,就近原则. 一语法一致：主谓一致的原则是指,主语和谓语从语法形式上取得一致:主语是单数形式,谓语也采取单数形式;主语是复数形式,谓语亦采取复数形式.例如: A grammar book helps you learn something about the rules of a language. 语法书帮助你学习语言的某些规则. Grammar books help you learn something about the rules of a language 语法书帮助你学习语言的某些规则. 主语和谓语从语法形式上取得一致在许多方面的需要去具体地分析:1. 不定式,动名词,以及从句作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.例如: Reading often means learning .读书常意味是学习. To read English aloud every morning does you a lot of good.每天早晨朗读英语有许多好处. What he said has been recorded .他说的话已被录音了. 2. 不定代词one, every, each, everybody, everyone, one of, no one, nothing, nobody, someone, somebody, either, neither, many a 等作主语或是修饰主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.例如: Neither of my sisters likes sports .我的妹妹中没人喜欢运动. Many a student takes a walk on campus after dinner.许多学生晚饭后常在校园里散步. Every boy and girl shows great interest in extra-curriculum activities .每个男孩和女孩对课外活动都表现出很大的兴趣. 3.表示国家,机构,事件,作品等名称的专有名词作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.例如: One Thousand And One Nights tells people lots of mysterious bits of folklore . 一千零一夜给人们讲了许多神秘的民间传说. The United States is leading the world in science and technology . 美国常在世界科技方面领先. The United Nations play an important role in the international affairs . 联合国在国际事务中起着重要作用. 4. a portion of, a series of, a kind of, the number of等与名词构成名词短语作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.例如: A series of high technology products has been laid out in the exhibition. 一系列高科技产品已在展览上展出. The number of printing mistakes in some recent books often surprises people even to death. 近来一些书籍里印刷错误的数量让人吃惊得要命. A substantial portion of the reports is missing .这些报告都没有提及实质问题. A kind of rose in the garden smells very pleasant.这座花园里有一种玫瑰香气怡人. 5. 由some, several, both, few, many, a number of 等词修饰主语,或是由它们自身作主语时应看作复数,谓语动词用复数.另外,由and连接两个主语时,谓语一般用复数.例如: On the seashore, some people are playing volleyball and some are lying in the sun. 海边,有些人在打排球,有些人躺着晒太阳. Both of us are fond of watching football games .我们俩都喜欢看足球 A number of will-be graduates are voluntarily going to work in the West of China. 许多即将毕业的学生打算自愿去中国西部工作. 6.有些短语,如:a lot of, most of, any of, half of , three fifths of, eighty percent of, some of, none of, the rest of , all of等后接不可数名词,或是单数形式的名词作主语时应看作单数,谓语动词用单数;但如果后接可数名词的复数形式作主语时应看作复数,谓语动词用复数.例如: A lot of money in the shop was stolen yesterday when the electricity was suddenly cut off. 昨天突然断电时,那家商店丢失了许多钱.A lot of books about Investment Fund have been published recently. 最近出版了许多关于投资基金的书籍. 二意义一致:( Notional Concord ) 这一原则是指,从意义着眼来解决主谓一致问题.有时主语形式上为单数,但意义上却是复数,那么谓语依意义也用复数形式;而有时主语形式上为复数,但意义上却是单数,那么谓语依意义亦用单数形式. 1) 当主语后面接由as well as, with, but, along with, like, as much as, accompanyed by, including, in addition to, more than, no less than, rather than, together with等引导的词组时,其谓语动词的形式要依主语的单复数而定.在这样的句子里,这些词所引导的词组不影响主语自身的单,复数形式,它们在句子里其实是状语.也就是说,我们完全可以将这些词组搬到句首或是放到句末去.从表面上我们也可以看出,它们与主语之间有,隔开.例如: Petroleum, along with fuel gas, has recently risen in price. The teacher, with all his students, is going to have a picnic this weekend.老师打算这个周末与学生们一起去野炊. The students, together with their teacher , are going to have a picnic this weekend.学生们打算这个周末与他们的老师一起去野炊. The warehouse, with all its stockings, was burned last night. 昨晚,那个仓库连同其所有的货物一起被烧毁了. An iron and steal works, with some satellite factories. is to be built here. 在这里将建立一个钢铁厂和一些卫星厂. Tom, along with his friends, goes skating every Saturday. 每个星期六,汤姆和他的朋友 我们完全可以将上面句子中的那些词组都分别搬到句首或是放到句末去,因为它们在句子里是状语 Petroleum has recently risen in price, along with fuel gas. Along with fuel gas, petroleum has recently risen in price. The students are going to have a picnic this weekend together with their teacher. As well as the suitcase, the missing things have been found and returned to the owner. The missing things have been found and returned to the owner, as well as the suitcase. 2) 表示时间,金钱,距离,体积,重量,面积,数字等词语作主语时,谓语动词用单数.例如: Twenty years stands for a long period in ones life. 二十年在人的一生里意味着一个很长的时 3) 形容词前加定冠词即the + 形容词作主语时,谓语动词用复数.例如: The young, on the one hand, often think of the old conservative. On the other hand, the old always consider the young inexperience. 五, the+形容词/过去分词作主语时的主谓一致 当 the +形容词 / 过去分词表示一类人或事物时,谓语动词用复数;如果指某一抽象概念时,谓语动词则用单数.如 The sick here are very well cared for. 这里的病人都被照顾得很好. The true is to be distinguished from the false. 真实与一方面,青年人常认为老年人保守;另一方面,老年人总是认为青年人没有经验. In many stories, the good are well rewarded and the bad are doomed to unfortunate. 在许多故事里,好人总是有好报;坏人注定要倒霉. 4)当and连接两个并列主语在意义上指同一人,同一物,同一事或者同一概念时,应看作单数,谓语动词用单数.另外,当and 连接两个形容词去修饰一个单数形式的主语时,其实是指两种不同的事物,主语则应该看作是复数, 那么谓语动词也应该用复数.例如:War and peace is a constant theme in history. 战争与和平是一个历史上的永恒的主题. Chinese and Japanese silk are of good quality. 中国丝绸和日本丝绸质量都很好. Different people respectively welcome White and black coffee. 加奶的咖啡与清咖啡都分别受到不同人们的喜爱. 5) 集体名词作主语时,谓语动词的数取决于主语的意义:主语表示整体时视为单数,谓语动词用单数;主语表示集体中的个体成员时视为复数,谓语动词用复数.这类集体名词常见的有:army, audience, cattle, class, club, committee, crowd, family, government, group, majority, minority, part, people, police, public, staff, team等等,其中cattle,people,police一般看成复数形式.例如: The family are all fond of football. 那一家人都喜欢足球. The family is the tiniest cell of the society. 家庭是社会的最小的细胞. The public has every reason to be cautious of professional deception. 人民大众完全有理由谨防职业骗局. The public now come to know the whole story. 人们现在越来越清楚那是怎么回事了. 注：只作不可数名词用的集体名词有clothing, baggage, luggage, furniture, scenery, jewellery, equipment. 只做复数的名词有goods, clothes, remains. 单复数同型的名词有means, sheep, deer. 表成双成套的名名词,如:trousers, pants, shorts, glasses, scissors等作主语时,谓语动词用复数.如: Her glasses are new. 她的眼镜是新的. 但当这类名词前有a pair of 修饰时,谓语动词应用单数.如: This pair of scissors is made in Hangzhou. 这把剪刀是杭州制造的Eight hours of sleep is enough. 八小时的睡眠足够了. Ten pounds was missing from the till. 钱柜里的10英镑不见了. 2. 以数字作主语的词或短语,有时可以看成一个整体,谓语动词用单数形式.如: Thirty-six from forty-five leaves nine. 四十五减去三十六等于九. 注:两数相加或两数相乘,谓语动词既可用单数形式也可用复数形式.如: Six times seven are / is forty-two. 六乘以七等于四十二. 3. 主语为以-ics结尾的学科名称时,谓语动词一般用单数形式.如: Politics is often a topic for discussion among us. 政治常常是我们讨论的话题. 4. 以-s结尾的专有名词作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式.如: New York Times has a wide circulation. 纽约时报的销路很广. 5. 群岛,山脉,瀑布等专有名词如:the Alps, the Philippines, Niagara Falls等作主语时,谓语动词用复数形式.如: Niagara Falls are a splendid scene. 尼亚加拉瀑布是一个壮丽的景象. 三。就近原则( Principle of Proximity ) 这一原则是指,谓语动词的人称和数常常与最近作主语的词语保持一致.常出现在这类句子中的连词有:or, either or , neither nor ,not only but also, not but 等.例如: Either I or they are responsible for the result of the matter. 不是我,就是他们要对那件事的结局负责任. Neither the unkind words nor the unfriendly attitude has caused me any distress.既不是那些不友好的话,也不是那不友好的态度让我沮丧. Not only he but also all his family are keen on concerts. 不仅仅是他,而且是他全家人都很热衷于音乐会. Neither his family nor he knows anything about it. 他全家人和他都不知道那件事 总结: 一, 并列结构作主语时的主谓一致 1.由and 连接的两个单数名词作主语时,谓语动词一般根据语法一致的原则用复数. A young man and a girl want to go there. 但如果在意义上指同一个人,同一件事或同一个概念时,谓语动词要用单数形式.如: A needle and thread was found on the floor. 在地板上找到了针线(穿了线的针). .如:Either the players or the coach is responsible for the defeat. 不是运动员就是教练应该对这次比赛 2.当eachand each., everyand every., no.and no., many a.and many a .结构作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式.如: No man and no animal is to be found on the moon. 在月球上没发现人和动物.
