1.2 Grammar:主谓一致
主谓一致的定义个三大原则
主谓一致是句子主语和谓语在“人称”和“数”方面保持一致,一般遵循三个原则:语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。
(一)语法一致原则
主语的单复数决定了谓语动词的单复数。
(1)动名词、动词不定式、从句、不定代词作主语时,谓语动词常用单数。
①Smoking is a bad habit.
吸烟是一个坏习惯。
②To have known you is a privilege.
认识了你真是荣幸。
③what you can see here is that you get this interesting pattern.
现在你们可以看到这个有趣的图形。
④Everything is in a complete mass, which drives people crazy.
所有的事情都毫无头绪,让人发疯。
(2)主语后接介词短语或其他插入语,如with, together with, as well as, like, but, except, along with, rather than, including, in addition to等,谓语动词的数要与前面的主语保持一致。
①Coursework, as well as exam results, is taken into account.
除考试结果外,课程作业也要计入成绩。
②I think Tom, rather than you is to blame for the accident.
我认为是汤姆而不是你该为这起事故负责任。
③The teacher, along with his students, was present at the meeting yesterday.
这个老师和他的学生都参加了昨天会议
(3)and, both...and...连接两个不同的主语,谓语动词用复数形式。
①Mike and Sue are always rowing.
迈克和休总是吵架
②Both Beijing and Shanghai are big cities.
北京和上海都是大都会。
注意:如果and连接两个单数可数名词或不可数
