主謂一致關(guān)系
英語(yǔ)中,主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)在數(shù)、性和格上應(yīng)該保持一致,但在實(shí)際應(yīng)用中很容易被忽視,尤其是主語(yǔ)和謂語(yǔ)之間出現(xiàn)插入語(yǔ),故考試中經(jīng)??嫉街髦^一致。除了以上特殊名詞謂語(yǔ)有特殊要求外,現(xiàn)將主謂一致的考點(diǎn)歸納如下:
(1) 復(fù)數(shù)原則:兩個(gè)或者兩個(gè)以上的名詞由and連接做主語(yǔ)時(shí);主語(yǔ)由both ...
and ... 連接時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。
Baseball and swimming are usually summer sports. 棒球和游泳通常都是夏季的運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目。
Both bread and butter are sold in that grocery. 那個(gè)雜貨店既賣面包,也賣黃油。
(2) 就近原則: 由 either ... or ...;neither ... nor ...;not only...but also...;...or ...;there be ...等引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)取決于最靠近動(dòng)詞的名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。
Not only the students but also their teacher is invited to attend the party. 受邀參加晚會(huì)的不僅有學(xué)生而且有教師。
(3) 就遠(yuǎn)原則:主語(yǔ),+ as well as + 另一個(gè)主語(yǔ),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)取決于第一個(gè)主語(yǔ)的名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。
My mother,as well as my two brothers,has a key to the office.
我母親,還有我的兩個(gè)哥哥都有一把辦公室的鑰匙。
適用于同樣規(guī)定的其他結(jié)構(gòu):
with...;together with...;along with...;including...;in addition to...;besides...;except...;as much as...;accompanied by ...;rather than...等。
(4) 表示時(shí)間、距離、價(jià)值、量度的復(fù)數(shù)名詞做主語(yǔ)時(shí)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。
One hundred dollars is a large sum for the poor. 對(duì)于窮人來(lái)說(shuō),100美元是個(gè)不小的數(shù)目。
Twenty days has passed since I met her last time. 自從我上次見(jiàn)到她到現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)過(guò)去二十天。( twenty days 這里不做整體看待,故謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù))
(5) and連接兩個(gè)名詞表示一個(gè)概念做主語(yǔ)時(shí),謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù);若表示的是多個(gè)不同的概念時(shí),謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。
