【要点提示】
所谓主谓一致,主要是指主语和谓语动词在“人称”和“数”上的一致,其基本原则有三个:语法一致原则、意义一致原则和邻近原则。下面就初中阶段需要掌握的重点内容作一归纳。
1. 主语是单数,即使后面跟with, except, as well as等引导的短语,谓语动词仍用单数形式。例如:
Mr Green with two students is standing outside the classroom.
2. each以及由every, some, any, no等构成的不定代词在句中作主语时,谓语动词通常用单数形式。例如:
Each of the children has an apple.
Everything begins to grow fast in spring.
3. 动词不定式(短语)、v-ing形式(短语)等在句中作主语时,谓语动词常用单数形式。例如:
To do is much more difficult than to say.
Climbing hills is his hobby.
