Unit 4 A glimpse of the future
Using Language
Grammar
Learning objectives
1. To know subject-verb agreement on person and number;
2. To use subject-verb agreement correctly.
Observe the rules
Activity 1 Look at the sentences and answer the questions.
a ... 50 per cent of my time was spent researching new restuarants.
b Every recommendation she gives me is great…
c … almost 50 per cent of US jobs are at risk from automation in the next 20 years.
d … none of us is prepared for the challenges of AI.
1 Why is 50 per cent singular in sentence (a) but plural in sentence (c)
2 What are the subjects in sentences (b) and (d) Are they singular or plural
1 Why is 50 per cent singular in sentence (a) but plural in sentence (c)
Because in sentence (a), the part “50 per cent” is followed by the uncountable noun “time”, while in sentence (c), the part “50 per cent” is followed by the countable noun “job” in its plural form.
2 What are the subjects in sentences (b) and (d) Are they singular or plural
In sentence (b), “Every recommendation” is the subject.
In sentence (d), “none of us” is the subject. Both are singular.
Subject-verb agreement
定义：主语和谓语在人称和数等方面的一致
当主语是不定代词或含有修饰语时，谓语动词的形式要依据主语所表达的单、复数概念而定，而不仅仅是取决于简单的外在形式。
Subject-verb agreement
用法归纳 1: 当主语被分数（百分数）、表示量的词汇等修饰时，谓语动词的形式要依据主语本身进行判断，具体如下：
如果主语是可数名词复数，或主语加上修饰语后整体表达的是复数概念，那么谓语动词要用复数形式。
如果主语本身是可数名词单数或者不可数名词，则谓语动词要用单数形式；
图书馆里大约三分之一的书都是由这所学校的毕业生捐赠的。
About one-third of the books in the library are donated by students who
graduated from the school.
每年大约有10%的森林被毁。

1) Fifty percent of the students in our school ____ girls.
2) Three-fourths of the surface of the earth ____ sea.
3) Over sixty percent of the city _____ destroyed in the war.

用法归纳 2：常用的表示“量”的短语后面接名词的谓语情况。
1) a number of / a variety of / varieties of +可数名词复数作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
2) a large amount of +不可数名词，谓语动词用单数；
large amounts of +不可数名词， 谓语动词用复数。
A number of new houses have been built there.
A variety of products are on sale now.
A large amount of money was spent on the bridge.
Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.
用法归纳 3：当主语被不定代词修饰或主语本身是不定代词时，谓语动词的形式需要根据主语加上修饰语后整体表达的意义来进行判断。
所有方法都试过了，却没有什么效果。
Every means has been tried out without much result.
1) Each boy ______ a prize.
2) Many of us _____ gone through regular training.
3) Every possible approach ____ been tried, but in vain.
4) Both of the instruments ____ not precise ones.
5) Something ___ going to happen, and nobody can stop it from happening.

用法归纳 4：all 作主语表示人时，谓语动词用复数；表示物时，谓语动词
用单数.
结果好一切都好。
All is well that ends well.
大家都急于达成一项协议。
All are eager to reach an agreement.
用法归纳 5：none 作主语时，谓语动词既可用单数也可用复数，这要取决于说话人的看法，如：
似乎我们全都没有想到这一点。
None of us seem to have thought of it.
我们都没有照相机。
None of us has got a camera. (none = not a single one)
Nobody _______ (have) got a ticket.

None of her family has/have been to college.
has
is/was
is/was
was/were
用法归纳 6： 当主语被否定词修饰或主语本身是否定词时，谓语动词一般用单数形式。如：
用法归纳 7：句中有两个或两个以上的主语时，谓语动词应和离它最近的主语保持人称和数的一致，这就是就近一致原则。
（1）连词连接的并列主语
当or, either... or..., neither... nor..., not only... but (also) ..., not... but..等连接并列的主语时，谓语动词的单复数与邻近的主语一致。

地球和其他七大行星围绕太阳转。

Meanwhile, Benny’s highest score was/were shown to be in an arts subject: the test gave him 68% for literary studies. Is genetic testing reliable Some scientists say that more evidence is/are needed.
Activity 2 Complete the passage by choosing the singular or plural form.
Activity 3 Complete the description according to the charts, paying attention to subject-verb agreement.
Three quarters of the surface is made up of land, …
Three quarters of the surface is made up of land, while the rest is sea, covering 25% of the surface.
Half of the land is covered with trees. Residential area and arable land both account for the same proportion, 20% of the total land. The rest is desert, covering 10% of the total land.
There are three kinds of people. Fifty per cent of the people are original residents, 30% are from Earth and 20% are from other planets.
