主谓一致常用的判断方法:

1. 语法一致的原则 ; 2. 意义一致的原则 ; 3. 邻近一致的原则

活学活用:

谓语受主语支配,须和主语在人称和数上保持一致,这叫做主谓一致。主谓一致一般

遵循三条原则:语法一致原则,意义一致原则和就近一致原则。

1. 语法一致的原则

(1)以单数名词或代词,动词不定式短语作主语时,谓语动词要用单数;主语为复数

时,谓语用复数,例如:

He goes to school early every morning.

The children are playing outside.

To work hard is necessary for a student.

(2)由and或both……and连接的并列成分作主语时,谓语动词用复数。例如:

Both he and I are right.

Mr Black and Mrs Black have a son called Tom.

但并列主语如果指的是同一人,同一事物或同一概念,谓语动词用单数。例如:

His teacher and friend is a beautiful girl.

The poet and writer has come.

Bread and butter is a daily food in the west.

问题:Bread and butter is a daily food in the west.

答:此题考查主谓一致的用法。习惯上把bread and butter看成是一个整体,所以系

动词应为is,而不用are. 类似的例子还有:knife and fork, needle and thread等等。例

如:

面包和奶酪是他最喜欢吃的食品。

误:The bread and butter are his favorite food.

正:The bread and butter is his favorite food.

(3)由and连接的并列单数主语之前如果分别由each, every修饰时,其谓语动词

要用单数形式。例如:

In our country every boy and every girl has the right to receive education.

Each man and each woman is asked to help.
