主谓一致基础概念
在英语句子中,谓语动词受主语支配,谓语动词必须和主语在人称和数上保持一致,这就叫做主谓一致。
主谓一致包括:语法一致、意义一致、就近原则
考点一 语法一致原则
语法一致原则,即谓语动词的数与主语的单复数要一致。

She studies hard in order to get the best score.
A lot of information about this matter has been found on the Internet.
积累常见的不可数名词:

4.由连词and或both...and连接两个名词或代词作主语时,谓语动词通常用复数形式。

考点二 意义一致
意义一致是谓语动词的单复数要与主语意义上的单复数一致。即主语形式上为单数,但意义为复数,则谓语动词用复数形式;若主语形式上为复数,但表示单数意义,则谓语动词用单数形式。

集体名词,如family,group,class,population,team,public等作主语时,如果看作一个整体,其谓语动词用单数;如果强调其中的每一个成员,则谓语动词用复数。
