2010年12月英語四六級考試詞匯備考筆記(11)

　　主謂一致：指的就是給出主語，要求判斷謂語動詞是用單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)的問題。

　　一、就近原則：

　　指句子的主語由兩部分單詞或短語構(gòu)成時，由離謂語動詞近的那部分主語來決定謂語動詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。

　　只有當(dāng)以下單詞或短語連接主句的兩部分時就近原則才適用：

　　1. or 或者; 2. either … or … 不是…就是… ，…或… ; 3. neither … nor … 既不…也不… ;

　　4. not only … but also … 不但…而且… ; 5. not … but … 不是…而是…

　　例如：主語1 or 主語2 謂語動詞。 此時由主語2決定謂語動詞。

　　10. _C_ either he or his accountants going to claim for the loss?

　　A Are B Where C Is D Does

　　如果題目改變?yōu)椋篍ither he or his accountants ___ going … 則應(yīng)選A

　　二、句子謂語動詞一定用復(fù)數(shù)的兩種情況：

　　1. 集合名詞做主語，集合名詞沒有復(fù)數(shù)形式，因為他本身就代表一個復(fù)數(shù)概念。

　　常見的幾個復(fù)合名詞： people 人民，人們; police 警察; cattle 牛; poultry 家禽。

　　2. 表示數(shù)量的復(fù)數(shù)名詞 + 不可數(shù)名詞，整體做主語時

　　例如：去年出口了八百萬頓煤。 Eight million tons of coal were exported last year.

　　三、謂語動詞一定用單數(shù)的六種情況：

　　1. 句子的主語是由從句充當(dāng)?shù)�、動詞不定式短語作主語、動名詞短語作主語;

　　2. 表示時間、重量、長度、價值四方面的詞做主語;

　　399. -- “How many days?”

　　0 -- “Did you say that five days _C_ required to complete that work?”

　　A are B were C was D is

　　3. 表示單數(shù)概念的主語，短語，謂語動詞，此時謂語動詞也用單數(shù);

　　因為此結(jié)構(gòu)中短語只是對主語提供附加說明情況，所以謂語動詞也用單數(shù)。

　　當(dāng)以下這些標(biāo)志性的介詞或介詞短語出現(xiàn)在此結(jié)構(gòu)中時可以不管中間的附加說明情況：

　　with, together with, like, except, besides, in addition to, rather than, as well as

　　注意：表示復(fù)數(shù)概念的主語，短語，謂語動詞，此時謂語動詞應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)。

　　4. each, every, either, some, any, no，由以上六個詞中任何一個所構(gòu)成的復(fù)合代詞作主語時;

　　some經(jīng)常構(gòu)成的三個復(fù)合代詞：something, somebody, someone;

　　no經(jīng)常構(gòu)成的三個復(fù)合代詞：nothing, nobody, no one; either of + 短語;

　　5. 通常由and連接兩部分這種形式做主語謂語動詞要用復(fù)數(shù)，但在以下兩種情況下則應(yīng)用單數(shù);

　　1> and連接的兩部分指的是同一事物;

　　2> and連接的兩部分被no, each, every中任何一個詞修飾時;

　　例如：每位男士和女士都要著裝得體。 be supposed to do sth. 理應(yīng)，應(yīng)該做某事。

　　Every man and every woman is supposed to dress properly.

　　11. Many an airplane _B_ in the exhibition.

　　A are shown B has been shown C has shown D show them

　　many a(an) 很多，相當(dāng)于many; many a(an) + 可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，做主語時謂語動詞用單數(shù)。

　　6. many a (an) + 可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)，作主語時謂語動詞用單數(shù)。

　　9. Not only Joan but her sisters _B_ the combination to the safe which contains the list of the family securities.

　　A have known B know C knows D is knowing

　　not only … but also … 的一種變形形式，not only … but …

　　另一種變形形式not only … but … as well

　　combination n. 密碼; combination to the safe 保險箱密碼; securities有價證券。

　　41. She ought to stop work; she has a headache because she _A_ too long.

　　42. Niagara Falls is a great tourist _B_, drawing millions of visitors every year.

　　A attention B attraction C appointment D arrangement

　　tourist attraction 旅游勝地; attention n. 注意力; appointment n. 委任的職位，約會;

　　date n. 日期，約會，棗;表示約會時指的是異性之間的私人約會。 arrangement n. 布置，安排

　　43. I don't mind _B_ the decision as long as it is not too late.

　　47. This kind of glasses manufactured by experienced craftsmen _B_ comfortably.
