专题 15 主谓一致
《考点•题型 •技巧》
考向分析
在英语句子里，谓语受主语支配，其动词必须和主语在人称和数上保持一致，这就叫
主谓一致。近几年来，高考关于该内容的考查主要集中在语法形态一致、逻辑意义一致以
及就近一致三个方面上。
复习建议
1. 掌握主谓一致的三个原则：语法形态一致、逻辑意义一致和就近一致；
2. 掌握主谓一致中的固定搭配；
3. 掌握定语从句中的主谓一致；
4. 掌握倒装句、强调句中的主谓一致。

学科网（北京）股份有限公司语法一致：就是谓语动词和主语在单、复数形式上保持一致。
1. 单数名词、不可数名词、不定式、动名词或从句作主语时，谓语动词用单数。主语为
复数时，谓语动词用复数。
◆由what引导的主语从句，后面的谓语动词多用单数但如果表语是复数或what从句是一
个带有复数意义的并列结构时，谓语动词用复数。
2.由and 或both...and 连接起来的合成主语后面谓语动词用复数。
◆如果and所连接的两个词是指同一个人或物时，它后面的谓语动词就用单数。
◆由and 连接的并列单数主语前分别有each, every, no more than a(an), many a(an)修饰时，
谓语动词用单数。
3.主语后面有 with, together with, except, but, like, as well as, rather than, more than, no less
than, besides, including等引起的短语时，谓语动词的单复数由主语的单复数决定。
4.either, neither, each, every或no+单数neither/neither/none of ＋复数名词，还有some, any,
no, every 构成的复合不定代词作主语，谓语动词用单数。
5.定语从句中，关系代词that, which, who 作主语时，谓语动词的数和先行词一致。

8.倒装句中，谓语v.的数与其后的主语一致。
考点02 意义一致原则

动词用单数。

学科网（北京）股份有限公司pair of 等量词时，视情况而定。
7.The ＋ adj. 表示一类人，作主语时用复数。
考点03 就近一致原则
就近一致：在英语句子中，有时谓语动词的人称和数与最近的主语保持一致。
（1）当两个主语由either … or， neither … nor，whether … or …，not only …but also连接
时，谓语动词和邻近的主语一致。
（2）there be句型的be动词单复数取决于其后的主语。如果其后是由 and连接的两个主
语，则应与靠近的那个主语保持一致。
（3）在倒装句中，谓语动词的数应与其后的主语一致。
（4）就远原则：谓语动词与前面主语一致。
主语后面接连接性短语时，这种结构并不影响主语和谓语的关系，即谓语动词的数与主语
的数保持一致。此类连接性短语有as well as，as much as，along with，with，like，rather th
an， together with，but，except，besides，including，in addition to等。
考点04 ＂名词+介词短语＂作主语
名词或代词后接as well as，with，along with，together with，except，but等短语作主语时，
谓语动词的形式应和介词短语前的名词或代词的人称和数保持一致。
考点05 不定代词作主语
1. 当作主语的名词前有each，neither，either，every修饰或each，neither，either作主语
时，谓语动词用单数。
2. 当复合不定代词 someone，anyone，somebody，anybody，nobody，everybody，
something，anything，nothing，everything等作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
考点06 特殊名词作主语
1. 国名、人名、书名、报刊名、组织机构等专有名词作主语时，即使其形式上是复数，谓
语动词也要用单数。
2. ＂the+形容词＂作主语时，表示某类人，谓语动词用复数。

学科网（北京）股份有限公司4. 单复数形式相同的名词，如Chinese，Japanese，sheep，deer等作主语时，谓语动词的单
复数由名词前的修饰语来确定。
【注意】Chinese，Japanese，English等前加the表示一国人，作主语时，谓语动词用复
数。
考点07 表数量概念的词或短语作主语
1. 表示时间、金钱、距离、重量等的复数名词作主语时，通常看作一个整体，谓语动词用
单数。

5. the rest of... 短语作主语时，如果of后接复数名词，谓语用复数；如果 of后接不可数名
词，谓语用单数。
6. ＂none of+复数名词＂作主语时，谓语动词既可以用单数也可以用复数。
7. ＂a number of+名词复数＂表示＂许多/大量的……＂，其后的谓语动词用复数；＂the
number of+名词复数＂表示＂……的数量＂，其中心词为number，故谓语动词用单数。
8. ＂a lot of/lots of/plenty of+名词＂作主语，谓语动词由of后的名词来确定。如果of后是
不可数名词，谓语动词用单数；如果of后是复数名词，谓语动词用复数。
考点08 动名词、不定式和从句作主语
考点09动名词、不定式或从句作主语时，谓语一般用单数。
主谓一致记忆口诀

如若强调其成员，复数谓语记心间。
有些名词谓常复，people、police即这般。
主语单数后接介，谓语单数介无关。
many a作主语也如此，谓语动词应用单。
