【注意】
若是“either [neither] of+名词”作主语,则其后的谓语动词可用单数(正式文体)或复数(非正式文体):
Neither of the two computers is [are] cheap. 这两台电脑都不便宜。
Is [Are] either of the boys ready? 两个男孩都准备好了吗?
I don’t think either of them is [are] at home. 我想他们俩个都会不在家。
4. each
作主语或修饰主语时
单独用作主语(或修饰主语),谓语用单数:
Each student has his own desk. 每个学生都有自己的课桌。
Two boys entered. Each was carrying a suitcase. 两个男孩进来,每人提着一只箱子。
【注意】
(1)
两个或多个“each+单数名词”结构并列作主语时, 谓语用单数。
(2)
“each of+复数名词或代词”用作主语, 谓语一般要用单数
Each of them was deeply frightened. 他们个个都惊恐万分。(from http://yingyu.chazidian.com)
但是在非正式文体中(尤其是当 each of之后的名词较长时)偶尔也可用复数谓语,但很少见,学生宜慎用。
