第份初中語法講義主謂一致年月日 第22章主謂一致在英語中，主語的單復數形式決定著謂語動詞應該采用的相應形式。這看起來似乎很簡單，但使用起來卻常會遇到復雜的情況。由于動詞有著許多不同的形式和功能，因此動詞在英語中是最為復雜的詞類。對每一個句子來說，我們不僅要考慮謂語動詞在時態、語態上是否恰當，還要注意謂語動詞必須在人稱和數上與主語保持一致。典型例句：1.Theyarestudents.（他們是學生。）典型例句：2.HisfamilyarewatchingTV.（他們全家人正在看電視。）典型例句：3.EitheryouorIamgoingtoworkthere.（不是你就是我將要去那里工作。）1.主謂一致的三原則在英語中，主語的單復數形式決定著謂語動詞應該采用的相應形式。這看起來似乎很簡單，但使用起來卻常會遇到復雜的情況。（1）語法一致原則一般來說，語法形式是單數的主語，謂語動詞用單數形式；語法形式是復數的主語，謂語動詞用復數形式。Hisfatherisadoctor.（他父親是一位醫生。）Thenumberoferrorswassurprising.（錯誤的數量之多是驚人的。）Weloveourmotherland.（我們熱愛我們的祖國。）Thetwinshavefoundtheirmother.（雙胞胎找到了他們的媽媽。）（2）意義一致原則主謂一致不僅是根據其外部語法形態來決定，最主要是取決于主語所表達的內在含義。主語形式雖為單數，但在意義上卻為復數，謂語動詞用復數形式；主語形式雖為復數，但在意義上卻為單數，謂語動詞用單數形式。Twentydollarsistoodear.（20美元太貴了。）Thecrowdwerefightingfortheirlives.（這些人正為生存而戰斗。）Threeyearsinastrangelandseemslikealongtime.（在異國他鄉生活3年，卻仿佛是度過了很長的時間。）（3）就近一致原則謂語動詞根據它前面鄰近的名詞、代詞等的數的形式，來決定自身數的形式。Notonlyhischildrenbutalsohehimselfwantstogothere.（不僅他的孩子想去那里，而且他本人也想去。）Neitheryounoryourbrotherhaspassedtheexam.（你和你弟弟考試都沒有及格。）2.主謂一致的特殊情況A.兩個作主語的名詞或代詞由either...or，neither...nor，or，notonly...but(also)連接時，謂語動詞應與后一個主語的人稱和數保持一致。Tomorhisbrothersarewaitingintheroom.（湯姆或他的哥哥們正在房間里等候著。）EitherheorIamwrong.（不是他錯了就是我錯了。）Neitherthestudentsnortheteacherknowsanythingaboutit.（學生們和教師都不知道這件事。）Notonlythestudentsbut(also)theteacherisactiveinsportsandgames.（不僅學生，就連老師都積極參加體育運動。）B.主語是單數而后接由aswellas，with，togetherwith，like，alongwith，ratherthan，nolessthan，asmuchas，including，inadditionto，besides，but，expect等引起的短語時，謂語動詞仍用單數形式。Nooneexpecthisownsupportersagreeswithhim.（除了他自己的支持者以外，誰也不同意他的意見。）Nobodybutusknowsit.（除我們之外，再沒有人知道此事。）I,ratherthanyou,amtoblame.（該受責備的是我而不是你。）Sheaswellastheotherstudentshaslearnedhowtotype.（她和其他學生一樣，也學會了如何打字。）Ourschool,withsomefewschools,wasbuiltinthe1950s.（我們學校和不少學校一樣建于20世紀50年代。）Aprofessor,togetherwithsomestudents,wasmovedintoanewlaboratory.（一位教授和幾個學生搬到新實驗室里去了。）C.由each，either，neither或some，any，no，every構成的合成代詞作主語時，謂語動詞用單數形式。Eachboyhasreadthebook.（每個男孩都看過這本書了。）補充：each位于復數主語之后時不影響主語的數。Theboyseachhaveanapple.（男孩們每人都有一個蘋果。）NeitherofthemisinterestedinEnglish.（他們兩人對英語都不感興趣。）Eitherofthestoriesisinteresting.（兩個故事中的任何一個都有趣。）Somebodyiswaitingforyouatthegateoftheschool.（有人在學校大門口等你。）Nobodywantstogothere.（沒有人愿意去那里。）Everythinggoesverywell.（一切進行得很順利。）D.表示數目、時間、金額、距離、路程、書名、國名、報刊名稱等的名詞復數作主語時，謂語動詞用單數形式。Twohoursisenoughforustofinishtheexperiment.（兩個小時足夠我們做完這項實驗。）Tendollarsistoocheapforthispairofshoes.（這雙鞋賣10美元太便宜了。）Tenhundredmilesisalongdistance.（200英里是很長的一段距離。）TheUnitedStatesisadevelopedcountry.（美國是一個發達國家。）TheNewYorkTimesispublisheddaily.（《紐約時報》每天都出版。）E.作主語用的集體名詞作為一個整體看待時，謂語動詞可用單數形式；若就其中各個成員來考慮，謂語動詞則用復數形式。Myfamilyhasmovedintothenewhouse.（我家已搬進了新房子。）（Myfamily表示“我家”，是一個整體，謂語動詞用單數形式）Myfamilyenjoysportsandgames.（我們全家人都喜歡體育運動。）（Myfamily意為“家庭中的每個人”，強調各個成員，謂語動詞用復數形式）Thecommitteewasmadeupof10members.（委員會由10人組成。）（強調整體）Thecommitteewereinthehall.（委員們都在大廳內。）（強調各個成員）F.people（人民），police，cattle等集體名詞作主語時，謂語動詞只能用復數形式。Thepeopleinthecityareveryfriendly.（那個城市的人們都很友好。）Thepolicearesearchingforthemurderer.（警察正在搜尋殺人犯。）Thecattlearegrazingneartheriver.（牛群在河邊吃草。）G.一個或兩個以上的并列主語由and連接時，如果表示不同概念，謂語動詞用復數形式；如果表示同一概念，謂語動詞要用單數形式。后一種情況只在第一個名詞前加修飾語。ThesingerandthedancercomefromGuangxi.（這位歌手和這位舞蹈演員來自廣西。）（and前后表示兩個人）ThesingeranddancercomesfromGuangxi.（那位歌手兼舞蹈演員來自廣西。）（and前后表示同一個人）Aprofessorandwriterhasattendedthemeeting.（一位教授兼作家出席了這次會議。）（and前后表示同一個人）Thetenthandthelastchapteraredifficulttounderstand.（第十章和最后一章很難看懂。）（and前后表示兩章）Thetenthandlastchapterisdifficulttounderstand.（第十章也就是最后一章很難看懂。）（and前后表示同一章）H.不定代詞none作主語時，謂語動詞可用單數形式或者復數形式。noneof短語作主語時，如果of之后為復數概念，則謂語動詞用單數形式或復數形式都可以；如果of之后為單數概念，則謂語動詞用單數形式。Noneknows/knowagreatdealaboutthisexperiment.（沒有一個人對這項試驗很了解。）Nonehas/havebeenfound.（一個也沒有找到。）Noneoftheapplesis/aregood.（那些蘋果沒有一個是好的。）Noneoftheappleisgood.（那個蘋果沒有一點是好的。）（表示整個蘋果全部壞掉了）I.代詞what，who，which，any，all，most，more等作主語時，謂語動詞用單數還是復數主要由它們所代替的意義決定。Whatiswrongwithyou?（你怎么了？）Therearesomebooksonthedesk.Whatarethenamesofthem?（桌子上有一些書。書名是什么？）Hewholaughsthelastlaughsthebest.（誰笑到最后，誰笑得最好。）Allofthestudentshaveseenthefilm.（全體學生都看過這部電影。）Allthatglittersisnotgold.（閃光的不全是金子。）Allofhissparetimewasspentinreading.（他所有的空余時間都花在看書上。）Mostofhermoneyisspentonclothes.（她大部分的錢花在買衣服上。）J.不定代詞each，every，no所修飾的單數可數名詞即使以and或逗號連接成多個并列主語，謂語動詞仍用單數形式。Eachboyandeachgirlwantstoservethepeopleinthefuture.（每個男孩和女孩都想將來為人民服務。）Everymanandwomanattendsthemeeting.（男的、女的都參加這個會。）Noboyandnogirllikeshiminhisclass.（他們班上的男孩和女孩都不喜歡他。）K.morethanone，manya短語作主語時，盡管意義上是復數，但謂語動詞通常用單數形式。Morethanonestudenthastried.（不止一個學生嘗試過。）Manyastudentandteacheriswatchingthefootballmatch.（許多學生和老師正在觀看足球比賽。）L.在“therebe+并列主語”和“herebe+并列主語”結構中，謂語動詞一般應與并列主語中的第一個主語的數一致。Thereisapenandtwobooksonthedesk.（桌上有一支鋼筆和兩本書。）Therearesomebooksandapenonthedesk.（桌上有些書和一支鋼筆。）Atthattimetherewasonlyateacherandastudentintheroom.（那時房間里只有一個教師和一個學生。）Hereisaletterandabookforyou.（這里有一封信和一本書是給你的。）說明：在非正式英語中，“there/herebe+并列主語”結構中的謂語動詞可用復數形式。如上例1、例3、例4都可用復數形式。M.“the+形容詞/過去分詞”這一表示一類人的結構作主語時，謂語動詞用復數形式。Theinjuredhavebeentakentohospital.（傷員已被送往醫院。）Theyoungarerequiredtorespecttheold.（年輕人應該尊敬老人。）Theoldaretakengoodcareofinourcountry.（在我們國家，老人受到了很好的照顧。）Thego
