意义一致原则
1.单数名词与谓语动词的一致
有时单数名词作主语的单数名词表示复数意义,这时谓语动词应用复数形式,以达到意义一致。

Note: people 和 youth 分别作“人们”“年轻人”讲时,谓语动词应用复数形式,但当其分别作“民族”“少年,小伙子”讲时,为可数名词,谓语动词应与其单复数形式保持一致。
A youth is standing under the tree.
(2)有些集体名词作主语时,谓语动词的形式取决于主语的意义。当主语表示整体概念时,视为单数,谓语动词应用单数形式;当主语表示集体中的个体成员时,视为复数,谓语动词应该用复数形式。如 army, class,committee, company, crowd,couple,group, party, population,team, public, family, faculty, audience,staff。

The bad news is that only 13 percent of people got the salary they deserved.
(2)表示时间、距离、金额、重量等的复数名词作主语时,若表示整体概念,谓语动词应用单数形式。
Forty miles is too long a way to walk in a day.
(3)以 -ics 结尾表学科等的名词作主语时,一般要求谓语动词用单数形式。常见的这类名词有:physics(物理学), economics(经济学), electronics(电子学), mathematics(数学),ethics(伦理学),politics(政 治 学),statistics(统 计 学), gymnastics(体 操), athletics 田径 运 动)等。但 当economics, electronics, mathematics, ethics, politics, statistics 表示学科以外的其他含义时,可作复数用,作主语时谓语动词用复数形式。Physics is one of the hardest subjects for a middle school student.

Note: 以 -s 结尾的表示“国家、机构、事件、作品、报刊”等名称的专有名词作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。

3.单复数同形的名词与谓语动词的一致
有些名词只有一种形式,既能表示单数含义,又能表示复数含义,这些名词作主语时,谓语动词应与其表达的具体意义保持一致。
