主谓一致Subject—Verb Agreement概念引入:I am a teacherShe often does her homework in the morning.There is only one box on the table.There are 50 students in our class.语法讲解:【高清课堂:直接引语和间接引语P1】什么是主谓一致?1)语法形式上要一致,即单复数形式与谓语要一致。
2)意义上要一致,即主语意义上的单复数要与谓语的单复数形式一致。
3)就近原则,即谓语动词的单复形式取决于最靠近它的词语。
一般来说,不可数名词与可数名词单数用动词单数,可数名词复数用动词复数。
在英语的句子中,谓语动词的形式应与主语的人称和数保持一致。
如何判定,则要看句子的意思。
多数情况下,根据句子的主语形式就能判定,但有的则要看整句的意思,及强调的内容。
下面我们就常用的、易混的几种情况作一下解释。
