英语句子中,主语的“人称”和“数”要限制、决定谓语动词的形式变化,这就叫“主谓一致”关系。它通常依据三项原则:1)语法一致 2)意义一致;
3)就近一致
1. and连接两个或两个以上单数名词或者代词作主语的时候,谓语动词有以下两种情况:
(1) 如果指两个或两个以上不同的人或 事物的时候,谓语动词用复数。如:语法一致He and I ___both students of this school. area singer and dancer
The singer and dancer _____ on the stage.is(2) 如果连接两个以上的名词指的是同一个人或物, 或者指同一概念的时候, 谓语要用单数。 The gift is used to have western meals.
What is it?a knife and forkA knife and fork is used to have meals.2. 如果主语是不定式,动词ing形式或主语从句的时候,谓语动词用单数。

along with,with ,like, rather than, together with , but ,
except, besides, ,including等引导的词组时,其谓语动词的
单、复数由主语的单、复数而定。1. The teacher with two students ______ at the meeting . (was / were)
