【2016高考名师精编】英语二轮复习精品课件：主谓一致与倒装句（全国通用）

　　(七)含有修饰语的名词作主语 1．谓语动词单复数依所修饰的中心词而定的情况 “分数或百分数＋名词”构成的短语以及由“a lot of, lots of, plenty of, a large quantity of, some, a heap of, heaps of, half of＋名词”构成的短语作主语时，其谓语动词要与短语中of后面的名词的数保持一致，这是因为短语中后面的名词是中心词，而短语中前面的量词是修饰语。 Lots of damage was caused by fire. 大量的危害是由火引起的。 Three fifths of the workers here are women. 在这儿3/5的工人是女性。 A large quantity of people are needed here. 这儿需要大量的人。典例　(湖南卷，26)Onethird of the country

　　________ covered

　　with trees and the majority of the citizens ________ black people. A．is; are

　　解析：A　本题考查主谓一致。句意：这个国家的森林覆盖面积占国土面积的三分之一并且大多数市民都是黑人。“分数词＋名词”作主语时，其谓语动词的单复数取决于名词的形式；“the majority of＋复数名词”作主语时，其谓语动词通常用复数形式。 2．谓语动词用复数的情况 (large) quantities of修饰可数或不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词一般用复数。a number of修饰复数名词，谓语动词用复数。large amounts of修饰不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词通常用复数。 Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge. 这座桥花了很多钱。 Quantities of food(nuts) were on the table. 许多食物(坚果)在桌上。 ◆注意但是，“the number of＋名词”的中心词却是number。试比较： The number of the key is 805. 这个钥匙的号码是805。 A number of questions were asked in the computer company yesterday. 昨天该计算机公司问了许多问题。 3．谓语动词用单数的情况 a great deal of, a large amount of修饰不可数名词，其短语作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数。表示数量的one and a half后接名词要用复数形式，但是其短语作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。 A large amount of/A great deal of damage was done in a very short time. 短时间内已产生了大量的危害。 One and a half bananas is left on the table. 在桌子上有一个半香蕉。 (八)the＋形容词(过去分词)作主语如果主语为“the＋形容词(或过去分词)”结构，表示人时谓语通常用复数：the brave, the poor, the rich, the blind, the young, the old, the sick, the dead, the deaf and dumb, the oppressed, the injured, the wounded, the unemployed等，但也有少数过去分词与定冠词连用时，用以指个体，这时则用单数；表示物时，谓语用单数。 The young are able to create their own future. 年轻人能够创造自己的未来。 The new is sure to replace the old. 新事物一定会替代旧事物的。 The wounded are taken good care of in the hospital. 伤员在医院里受到精心护理。 The departed was a well－known engineer. 这名死者是位很知名的工程师。 (九)非谓语动词、从句作主语 1．非谓语动词作主语单独的非谓语动词作主语，谓语动词一般用单数，用连接词连接多个非谓语动词作主语表达不同概念时用复数，表达同一概念时用单数。 Persuading him to join us seems really hard. 劝他加入我们似乎很难。 To go to bed early and to rise early is a good habit. 早睡早起是个好习惯。 To work and to live are two different things but they are always together. 工作和生活是两件不同的事，但它们永远相伴。
