主谓一致正误例析

1.[误]Either you or I are wrong. [正]Either you or I am wrong. 析:两个做主语的名词或代词由either…or,neither…nor,not only…but(also)连接时,谓语动词应采取“就近原则”,也即谓语动词应与后一个主语保持人称和数的一致。     

主谓一致重点剖析

1.连词词组连主语,"就近原则"是一般。常见连词词组有neither…nor…/either…or…/whether…or…/not only…but also…/not…but…等等,这些连词连接并列主语时,谓语动词的单复数与最邻近的主语一致。如:Not only you but also I am a student./Are either you or I mad?     

主谓一致的邻近原则

邻近一致原则指当主语是两个或两个以上的并列名词或代词时,谓语动词的数要与最邻近的名词或代词的数保持一致。 1.由or,either…or…,neither…nor…,not only…but also等并列的连词连接的并列主语,谓语动词在数上与最邻近的主语保持一致。如:     

巧手妙改

1.D。hegan→had begun。由when引导的时间状语从句可知。2.C。are→is。当两个以上的主语被nor,or,either…or…,neither…nor…或not only…but also…等连接时,谓语动词就和最近的一个一致。     

not only…but also用法浅析

1.not only…but also应连接两个相对称的并列成分。例如: Not only Mr Lin but also his son joined the Party two years ago.(连接两个主语) I not only play tennis but also practise shooting.(连接两个谓语动词)     

“主谓一致”常见错误例析

1.这儿有一个苹果,几个香蕉和一些桔子。误:There are an apple,several bananas and some oranges. 正:There is an apple,several bananas and some oranges here. 析:当句子由there或here引导,主语又不止一个时,谓语应当和最邻近的主语保持一致。另外句型not only…but also,either…or…,neither…nor等也遵循就近原则,谓语与最邻近的主语保持一致。     

英语难句正误辨析

1、这不是教师阅览室,而是学生阅览室。 A.The reading-room,isn’t for teachers or students. B.Tha teading is not for techews.but for students. 析:B对。but在此处是连词,表示对比,与否定词连用。not…but…的意思为“不是……而是……,”在这个结构中、not和but之后要用并列的词语,当它与连系动词be连用时一般不缩     

记住go cast j

在中学英语中,大多数分词的逻辑主语和主干句的主语是一致的。如:Professor Wang went into the classroom,followed by a group ofstudents.=Professor Wang went into the classroom and he was followed by agroup of students.Being a Party member,she is strict not only in her work,but     

略谈英语主语和谓语的一致关系

英语主语和谓语一致关系是指句中主语的人称、数同谓语的一致关系。如果主语是人称代词,则谓语和主语的一致问题比较简单,只须通过反复多练,养成习惯,就可掌握。I,you,he等人称代词只能用与之相应的动词am,are和is相搭配。至于主谓语在数上的一致关系,涉及主语(名词)的形式和数量的含意,情况就比较复杂些,中国人学英语常在这方面出错误。看来有以下几种情形应引起注意。一、由either…or;neither…nor或not onlg…but also等连词连结两个同等主语时,动词应只同后一个主语一致。例如:     

从一道高考题谈leave 宾语 宾补

2006年高考英语天津卷中出现了这样一道考题:7.A good story does not necessarily have to have a happy ending,but the reader must not be left__. A unsatisfied B.unsatisfying C.to be unsatisfying D.being unsatisfied正确答案为A。要做好该题可先把第二个并列句还原成主动语     

常用并列、从属连词要点综合

一、常用的并列连词(一)表示并列关系(联合关系)。如:and,but,not only...but(also),neither...nor等。注意1:both...and连接句子的两个主语时,其后谓语动词通常用复数形式。not only...but(also)与neither... nor要采取"就近原则"。如:She plays not only the piano,but(also)the guitar.Neither you nor he is to blame.注意2:not only...but also与as well as两者强调的对象不同,前者强调的是but also之后的部分,而后者则强调其前面的部分。前者采取"就近原则",而后者只是     

从三道高考题看remain的用法

先看下面三道高考题: 1.Having a trip abroad is certainly good for the old couple,but it remains____whether they will enjoy it． (2002 NMET) A．to see B．to be seen C．seeing D．seen [解析]答案为B。本题考查remain后接动词的用法。句中的it为形式主语,真正的主语是后面的从句     

Proverbs in a Function and Purpose Perspective

In Otto Jespersen‘s book the Philosophy of Grammar( 1951 ),the definition of formulas is mentioned: “a formula may be a whole sentence or a group of words, or it may be one word, or it may be only part of a word, that is not improtant,but it must always be something which to the actual speech- instinct is a unit which cannot be further analyzed or decomposed in the way a free combination can”(1951:24) .Thus proverbs belong to formulas, as the example “Handsome is that handsome does” given by Jespersen.     

not only…but also…与…as well as…

not only…but also…和…as well as…都是“不但…而且…”的意思。同学们在使用这两个结构时容易弄错,现就它们在使用中的几个要点归纳如下: 1.not only…but also…这一结构重点强调后者,also有时可以省去;而…as well as…这一结构重点强调前者。例如: I study not only Chinese but(also)English. He has been to England as well as to Bei-jing. 2.not noly…but also…和…as well as…所连接的部分,词性上必须同等。例如:     

中考主谓一致考点归纳

在英语中,句子的谓语动词在人称和数上必须和主语保持一致。根据Quirk等人编著的《A Grammar of Contemporary English》,现代英语关于主语和谓语在数上的一致关系,大致遵守如下三条原则:语法一致,意义一致和近邻一致,但在实际应用中常常会遇到比较复杂的情况。下面结合近几年全国部分省、市中考试题,对主谓一致考查重点作一归纳。一、由either...or,neither...nor,notonly...but also等连接的名词或代词短语作主语时,谓语动词要和后一个名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。例如:Neither he nor I am good at singing.我和他都不擅长唱歌。Not only the students but also the teacherlikes playing basketball.不但学生们喜欢打篮球,老师也喜欢。Either he or you are wrong.不是他错了,就是你错了。【典型试题】1.Either Jane or Steven______watching TVnow.(2005重庆市)A.were B.is C.are2...     

宾语从句与不定式(短语)的转换

宾语从句是英语学习中的重点、难点,也是中考的热点。宾语从句与不定式(短语)的转换,是中考中的考点之一,现将应注意的问题归纳如下:【考题引导】A:They haven’tdecided which camera they will choose. B:They haven’t decided which camera to choose. 【要点领悟】当主句谓语动词为hope, agree, wish, decide, choose等后接that引导的宾语从句的主语与主句的主语一致时,宾语从句可转换成不定式(短语)。如:A:The girl hopes that she can be a doctor some day. B:The girl hopes to be a doctor some day. …
