2023年初中英語單一主語的主謂一致基礎(chǔ)知識

單一主語的主謂一致

單數(shù)的主語跟單數(shù)的動詞，復(fù)數(shù)的主語跟復(fù)數(shù)的動詞，這是符合語法一致的原則。但在實際運用中，往往會出現(xiàn)較為復(fù)雜的情況：

A. 形復(fù)意單的名詞作主語

形復(fù)意單的名詞作主語(即形式為復(fù)數(shù)，意義為單數(shù))，按意義一致的原則，用作單數(shù)意義時，謂語用單數(shù)，反之，謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。

1. 許多學(xué)科名稱，如mathematics, physics, economics, politics等，以及news等名詞作主語時，動詞用單數(shù)。

Physics is required of every student in our school. 物理是我校每個學(xué)生的必修科目。

News is traveling fast nowadays. 當(dāng)今新聞傳播得很快。

2. 用作國名、組織機構(gòu)、書名、報刊名等復(fù)數(shù)形式的專有名詞作為整體對待，謂語用單數(shù)。

The United Nations has passed a resolution to lift sanctions against Iraq. 聯(lián)合國通過了解除對伊制裁的決定。

The Times reports the news of the strike. 時代雜志報導(dǎo)了罷工的消息。

Great Expectations was written by Dickens in 1860. 《遠大前程》是狄更斯于1860年寫的。

注意：

如果山脈、群島、瀑布等名稱作主語時，謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)。

The Great Lakes lie between the USA and Canada. 五大湖在美國和加拿大兩國之間。

The Philippines are in the western Pacific Ocean southeast of China. 菲律賓群島在中國東南太平洋西部。

The Niagara Falls are the falls on the Niagara River. 尼亞加拉瀑布位于尼亞加拉河上。

My blue trousers have been worn out. 我的藍褲子已經(jīng)穿破了。

His glasses are new. 他的眼鏡是新的。

注意：

這些名詞如用a pair of 修飾時，謂語動詞用單數(shù)。

The shoes are under the bed. 鞋在床下。

The pair of shoes is under the bed. 這雙鞋在床下。

4. 單、復(fù)數(shù)同形名詞作主語時，按意義一致的原則，用作單數(shù)意義時，謂語用單數(shù);用作復(fù)數(shù)意義時，謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。這類名詞有：sheep, deer, fish, means, works, species, Chinese, Japanese等。

The (This) glass works was set up in 1986. 這家玻璃廠建于1986年。

The (These) glass works are near the railway station. 這些玻璃廠在火車站附近。

There is a sheep under the tree. 樹下有一只綿羊。

比較：

當(dāng)這類名詞前有a, such a, this, that, every修飾時，謂語用單數(shù);有all, such, these, those修飾時，謂語用復(fù)數(shù)。

Every means has been tried out without much result. 每一種方法都試過了卻沒什么結(jié)果。

All means have been tried out without much result. 所有方法都試過了卻沒什么結(jié)果。

B. 集合名詞作主語

集合名詞表示有若干個體組成的集合體，如army, audience, class, club, company, crowd, government, group, party, population, team, union等。

1. 集合名詞作主語時，若表示整體概念，謂語動詞用單數(shù)，若表示構(gòu)成該集合體的成員，則謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)。

His family are waiting for him. 他的家人正在等他。

But the man's family was small-only himself and his wife. 但那人的家庭很小，只有他本人和妻子。

One third of the population here are workers. 這里人口中有三分之一是工人。

The population of the earth is increasing every year. 地球上的人口每年都在增長。

2. 有些集合名詞，如cattle, folk, people, police, youth等，作主語時，謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)，即所謂的“形單意復(fù)”。

The police have caught the thief. 警察已經(jīng)抓住了小偷。

The cattle are grazing in the field. 牛在田野里吃草。

C. 代詞作主語

1.名詞性物主代詞作主語時，既可以用作單數(shù)，也可以用作復(fù)數(shù)，這取決于它所代替的是單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)。

Such are her wishes. 她的愿望就這些。

3.關(guān)系代詞who, that, which等在定語從句中作主語時，其謂語動詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與主句中先行詞的數(shù)一致。

注意：

在 one of+復(fù)數(shù)名詞+whothatwhich 引導(dǎo)的定語從句結(jié)構(gòu)中，關(guān)系代詞whothatwhich的先行詞是靠近它的復(fù)數(shù)名詞而不是one，因此，從句中的動詞應(yīng)該是復(fù)數(shù)形式。但當(dāng)one之前有the, the only等修飾語時，關(guān)系代詞的先行詞是one，而不是靠近它的復(fù)數(shù)名詞，因此從句的動詞應(yīng)是單數(shù)形式。

This is one of the best films that have been shown this year. 這是今年所放的最佳電影中的一部。

She is the only one of the girls who sings best. 她是這么多女孩中唯一歌唱得最好的。

4.疑問代詞who, what, which作主語時，謂語動詞可根據(jù)說話人所要表達的意思決定單、復(fù)數(shù)。

5.不定代詞作主語時，有以下兩種情況：

①some, all, any, none, more, most等詞可以指復(fù)數(shù)名詞和不可數(shù)名詞，它們作主語時，視其文中的意義，判斷動詞用單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)的形式。

②some, all, any, none, more, most等詞接of時，若of的賓語為不可數(shù)名詞，動詞用單數(shù)形式，若of的賓語為復(fù)數(shù)名詞或代詞時，動詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
