M3U3 Back to the past 学案Grammar and usage第一部分:重点讲解在英语句子里,谓语受主语支配,其动词必须和主语在人称和数上保持一致,这就叫主谓一致
寻其规律,大致可归纳为三个原则,即语法一致、逻辑意义一致和就近一致原则
(一)语法一致原则:语法上一致就是谓语动词和主语在单、复数形式上保持一致
1、以单数名词或代词、动词不定式短语、动名词短语或从句作主语时,谓语动词一般用单数形式;主语为复数时,谓语动词用复数形式
如:His father is working on the farm
/ To study English well is not easy
/ What he said is very important for us all
/ The children were in the classroom two hours ago
/ Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes
注意:由 what 引导的主语从句,后面的谓语动词多数情况用单数形式,但若表语是复数或 what 从句是一个带有复数意义的并列结构时,主句的谓语动词用复数形式
如:What I bought were three English books
/ What I say and do is (are) helpful to you
2、由连接词 and 或 both … and 连接起来的合成主语后面,要用复数形式的谓语动词
如:Lucy and Lily are twins
/ She and I are classmates
/ The boy and the girl were surprised when they heard the news
/ Both she and he are Young
