主谓一致
Subject-predicate Agreement
主谓一致有三个基本原则:
语法一致原则、意义一致原则、就近原则。
“语法一致原则”是指形式上的一致。即: 主语为
单数形式, 谓语动词就用单数形式; 主语为复数形式,
谓语动词就用复数形式。“意义一致原则”是指有些主语形式上虽为单数, 而意义上却是复数, 谓语动词就要用复数形式; 同样有些主语形式上虽为复数, 而意义上却是单数, 谓语动词就要用单数形式。“就近原则”是指谓语动词的单复数形式与最靠近它的名词或代词保持一致。
动词单数 is was does has s动词
动词复数 are were do have 动词原形
其余各种动词没有单数复数之分

neither of: 两个都不
none of : 都不(三者以上)
