新概念英語第二冊語法精粹：主謂一致（下）

12、有些集體名詞如family, team, group, class, audience(聽眾，觀眾), government等作主語時，如看作是一個整體，謂語動詞則用單數(shù)形式;如強調各個成員時，謂語動詞要用復數(shù)形式。如：

1)My family is going to have a long journey. 我家要進行一次長途旅行。

2)My family are fond of music. 我家人都喜歡音樂。

3)The class has won the honour. 這班獲得了榮譽。

4)The class were jumping for joy. 全班同學都高興得跳了起來。13、all, more, most, some, any, none, half, the rest等作主語時，既可表示復數(shù)意義，也可表示單數(shù)意義，謂語動詞要根據(jù)實際情況而定。如：

1)All of the apple is rotten. 整個蘋果都爛了。

2)All of the apples are rotten. 所有的蘋果都爛了。

3)Most of the wood was used to make furniture(家具)。14、the + 形容詞(或分詞)作主語時，常指一類人，謂語動詞用復數(shù)形式。如指的是抽象概念，謂語動詞則用單數(shù)形式。如：

1)The young are usually very active. 年輕人通常是很活躍的。

2)The wounded are being taken good care of here now. 現(xiàn)在傷病員們在這里受到了很好照顧。15、or, either…or…, neither…nor…, whether…or, not only…but (also)連接的是主語，謂語動詞與后一個主語一致。如：

1)Either you or I am going to the movies.

2)Not only you but also he is wrong.16、不可數(shù)名詞沒有復數(shù)形式，作主語時，謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式。如：

1)Water is a kind of matter.

2)The news at six o’clock is true.17、集合名詞如：people, police, cattle等作主語，謂語動詞用復數(shù)形式。如：

1)The police are searching for him.

2)The cattle are grassing(吃草).18、population當人口講時，謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式;當人們講時，謂語動詞用復數(shù)。如：

1)The population of China is larger than that of Japan.

2)One third of the population here are workers.19、the number of + 名詞復數(shù)，是表示“……的數(shù)字”，作主語時，謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式;a (large/great) number of + 名詞復數(shù)，表示許多，作主語時;謂語動詞用復數(shù)形式。
