there.,但如果在意义上指同一个人、同一件事或同一个概念时，谓语,动词要用单数形式。如：,A needle and thread was found on the floor.,当each.and each.；every.and every.；no.and no.；many,a.and many a.结构作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。如：,No man and no animal is to be found on the moon.,Many a doctor and many a nurse is busy with their work.,由not only.but also.；either.or.；neither.nor.；or连接的,并列主语，谓语动词与就近的名词或代词保持一致。如：,Either the players or the coach is responsible for the defeat.,当主语由as well as,along with,together with，rather than,no,less than,but,except,besides,in addition to,like,including等词连,接时，其谓语动词与前面的名词或代词保持一致。如：,An iron and steal works,with some satellite factories,is to be built,here.,Tom,along with his friends,goes skating every Saturday.,2.百分数、分数作主语时。,当百分数、分数后面加名词或代词时，要根据这个名词或代词,来决定其谓语动词的单复数形式。如果是复数名词或代词，谓,语动词用复数；如果是单数名词(或不可数名词)或代词，谓语动,词用单数。如：,Fifty percent of the students in our school are girls.,Threefourths of the surface of the earth is sea.,3.不定代词作主语时。,不定代词each,another,the other,either,neither和由some,any,no,everyone或thing构成的复合代词作主语时，谓语动词用单,数形式。如：,Neither of us has gone through regular training.,Nobody wants to go there，does he?,Something has been done to end the strike.,all作主语表示人时，谓语动词用复数；表示物时，谓语动词用,单数。如：,All is well that ends well.,All are eager to reach an agreement.,4.表示“全体”、“部分”等意义的词作主语时。,当主语是most,the rest,the last,the remainder等时，其谓语一,般应遵循意义一致的原则：如果of后面的名词是单数，则用单,数；如果of后面的名词表示复数，则用复数。如：,Three of us will go,the rest are to stay here.,After the big fire,the remainder is nothing.,5.“the形容词/过去分词”作主语时。,当“the形容词/过去分词”表示一类人或事物时，谓语动词用复,数；如果指某一抽象概念时，谓语动词则用单数。如：,The sick here are very well cared for.,The true is to be distinguished from the false.,6.形式为复数、意义为单数的名词作主语时。,表示时间、距离、金额、重量、计量、空间、体积等意义的复,数名词作主语，谓语动词常用单数形式。如：,Eight hours of sleep is enough.,Ten pounds was missing from the till.,7.number；many a.等作主语时。,the number of.(的数目)作主语时，谓语动词用单数；而a,number of.(许多)作主语时，谓语动词用复数。如：,The number of mistakes is surprising.,many a,more than one单数名词构成的短语，尽管意义上是,复数，但谓语动词仍用单数形式。如：,Many a comrade has that kind of opportunity.,8.集体名词作主语时。,有生命的词，如：cattle,police等作主语时，谓语动词用复数形,式。如：,The police are investigating the crime.,9.“one of复数名词定语从句”结构中的主谓一致。,在“one of复数名词定语从句”结构中，定语从句中谓语动词,的单复数应由它修饰的先行词的数来决定。如：,This is one of the rooms that were damaged in the fire.,在“the only one of复数名词定语从句”结构中，定语从句的,谓语动词应用单数形式。如：,Mary is the only one of the youngest girls who plays in the band.,10.从句、动词不定式、ing形式作主语时。,在“主系表”结构中，如果以what从句作主语，表语又是单数，,主句的谓语动词一般用单数；如果表语是复数，主句的谓语动词,一般用复数；动词不定式、ing形式作主语时，谓语动词一般用,单数。如：,What caused the accident is a complete mystery.,To learn English well is
