3. 鄰近一致的原則
(1)由連詞or, either……or, neither……nor, not only…but also,等連接的并列主語,如果一個是單數(shù),一個是復(fù)數(shù),則謂語動詞按就近一致原則,與最靠近它的主語一致。例如:
Either you or I am right.
Neither the children nor the teacher knows anything about it.
(2)在“There be” 句型中,謂語動詞和靠近的主語一致。
There are two apples and one egg in it.
(3)as well as 和名詞連用時,謂語動詞和第一個名詞相一致。
He as well as I is responsible for it.
不但是我,他對這件事也有責(zé)任。
(4)以here開頭的句子,其謂語動詞和靠近的主語一致。
Here is a letter and some books for you.
【實例解析】
1. (2004年天津市中考試題)
How time flies! Ten years ________ passed.
A. have B. has C. is D. are
答案:B。該題考查的是主謂一致。Ten years通常被看作是一個時間整體,謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式。
2. (2004年南通市中考試題)
Not only his parents but also his brother ________ to the Summer Palace. They haven’t been back.
A. have been B. have gone C. has been D. has gone
答案:D。該題考查的是主謂一致。如果由not only…but also連接兩個并列主語,其謂語動詞同相鄰的主語保持一致,謂語動詞應(yīng)用單數(shù)形式。又因為他們還都沒有回來,所以用has gone而不用has been。
3. (2004年吉林市中考試題)
Neither my father ________ going to see the patient.
A. nor I am B. nor I are
C. or me are D. or me is
答案:A。該題考查的是主謂一致。Neither…nor是一組連詞,可連接連個并列主語,其謂語動詞應(yīng)同靠近的主語I保持一致, 因此應(yīng)選A。
4. (2004年包頭市中考試題)
Look! There _______ playing with the tourists on Yinhe Square.
A. are a number of deer B. are a number of deers
C. is a number of deer D. is a number of deers
答案:A。該題考查的是主謂一致。這個句子的主語是a number of deer, 是個復(fù)數(shù)概念,因此謂語動詞應(yīng)用復(fù)數(shù)形式。(deer單復(fù)數(shù)相同)
