2. 由as well as, with, without，along with, like, together with, rather than, except, but, including, plus, besides, in addition to, no less than 等引起的结构跟在主语后面，不能看作是并列主语，其谓语动词的单、复数按主语的单、复数而定。
The man together with his wife and children sits on the sofa watching TV.那个人和他妻儿老小坐在沙发上看电视。
He, like you and Xiao Li, is very clever.他像你和小李一样非常聪明。
3. 有些代词只能指单数可数名词，当它们在句子中作主语时，尽管在意义上是多数，谓语动词仍要用单数形式。
这类代词有either, neither, each, one, the other, another, somebody, someone, something, anyone, anything, anybody, everyone, everything, everybody, no one, nothing, nobody等。

初中英语语法之主谓一致讲解
初中英语语法之主谓一致讲解考点名称：主谓一致主谓一致的概念：谓语的数必须和主语的人称和数保持一致，这就叫主谓一致。
主谓一致的基本原则：1)语法一致原则，即在语法形式上取得一致。
例如，主语是单数形式，谓语动词也采取单数形式；主语是复数形式，谓语动词也采取复数形式。
例如：The students are very young.This picture looks beautiful.2)意义一致原则，即从意义着眼处理一致关系。
例如，主语形式虽是单数但意义是复数，谓语动词也采取复数形式；而有些主语形式虽是复数但意义上看作单数，谓语动词也采取单数形式。
例如：The people in that country are fighting for independence.The crowd deeply respect their leader.Three years in a strange land seems a long time.3)就近原则，即谓语动词的单数或复数形式取决于最靠近它的词语。
例如：Neither hen or I am going to see the film tonight because we are busy.几对容易混淆词组的一致用法：1、由“this／thatkind／typeof+名词”作主语，谓语动词用单数形式；而由'these／thosekind／typeof+复数名词”作主语，谓语动词用复数形式。
例如：This kind of apples is highly priced.Those kind(s) of tests are good.2、由“a number of，a totalo f，an average of+复数名词”作主语，谓语动词用复数形式；由“the number of，the total of，the average of+复数名词”作主语，谓语动词用单数形式。
主谓一致英语语法详细讲解
主谓一致英语中，主语的单复数形式决定谓语动词的单复数形式。
主谓一致必须遵循以下三条原则：语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。
根据这三条原则，现从以下几个方面进行总结：一、并列结构作主语时的主谓一致1. 由and/both...and...连接的两个单数名词作主语时（两个冠词），谓语动词一般根据语法一致的原则用复数。
例如：A young man and a girl want to go there. 一个青年男子和一个姑娘想去那里。
【注意】如果在意义上指同一个人、同一件事或同一个概念时（一个冠词），谓语动词用单数形式。
例如：①A needle and thread was found on the floor. 在地板上找到了针线(穿了线的针)。
②The teacher and writer is her friend.这个既是是教师又是作家的人是她的朋友。
2. 一个单数名词同时被and连接的两个不同的形容词修饰，表示两个不同的概念时，谓语动词用复数。
例如：Ancient and modern history are the subjects we are studying.古代史和现代史是我们目前学习的课程。
【注意】如果在意义上指同一个人、同一件事或同一概念时，谓语动词用单数。
例如：The last and most difficult lesson is lesson14. 14课是最后一课也是最难的一课。
3. 当each...and each...，every...and every...，no...and no...，many a...and many a...结构作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
例如：①No man and no animal is to be found on the moon. 在月球上没发现人和动物。
②Many a doctor and many a nurse is busy with their work.许多医生和护士都忙于他们的工作。

第十一节主谓一致第十一节主谓一致谓语动词与其主语在人称和数上要保持一致，称为主谓一致。
要做到主谓一致，除了要考虑句中主语的人称和数的变化，还要考虑到谓语动词的时态和语态的变化。
要理解和遵循语法规则，但在理解的基础上又不完全局限于语法规则，在很多情况下，还要结合具体的语言环境加以判断。
在主谓一致这个问题上，必须明确的是：只有在谓语动词是现在时态或be动词的过去式的时候，主语才和它有数方面的一致关系。
一、主谓一致的基本原则主语和谓语在人称和数上保持一致遵循三个基本原则：语法一致、意义一致、就近原则。
1、语法一致语法一致指主语为单数形式，谓语动词也用单数形式；主语为复数，则谓语动词也用复数，这是主谓一致的三原则中最基本的原则。
如：She is a girl.她是女孩。
They are all girls.他们都是女孩。
2、意义一致意义一致指主语形式上是单数，但表达复数意义，那么谓语动词要用复数形式；或主语形式上是复数形式但表达单数意义，则谓语动词也采用单数形式，如：My family were watching TV at 7 o’clock.7点钟的时候，我们全家在看电视。
My family has moved three times.我们家搬过三次。
The family were having dinner when I called.我去拜访的时候，那家人正在吃饭。
3、就近原则就近原则指谓语动词的人称和数由最靠近它的主语决定，如：There is a book, two pens and three pencils on the desk.书桌上有一本书，两支钢笔和三支铅笔。
There are two pens, a book and three pencils on the desk.书桌上有两支钢笔，一本书和三支铅笔。

如：When and where to build the new factory ________ not decided yet.A. isB. areC. hasD. have[分析]答案是A。
“疑问词+不定式”作主语，谓语动词用单数，此题又是被动语态。
2、复合不定代词作主语以some-,any-,every-,no-开头，以-thing, -body, -one结尾的复合不定代词作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
如：Everything is going well.一切顺利。
3、以-s结尾的学科名、书名、国名作主语。
表示学科（如physics, politics, maths）、书名（如The Arabian Nights）、国名（如the United States, Wales, the United Nations）等以-s结尾的名词作主语时，谓语动词通常用单数。
如：The United States has many different kinds of climate.美国的气候是各种各样的。
4、“more than one/many a+单数名词”作主语“more than one+单数名词”和”many a+单数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
如：More than one student has seen the film.不止一个学生看过这部电影。
Many a strong man has weakened before such a challenge.许多坚强的人遇到这种困难都动摇了。
5、指同一人或事物的并列结构作主语指同一人或事物的A and B结构（如knife and fork刀叉，bread and butter黄油面包，a teacher and writer老师兼作家，fish and chips鱼和炸土豆片）作主语时，谓语动词常用单数。
如：A worker and writer was present at the meeting.一位工人作家出席了会议。
Fish and chips is a popular meal in Britain.鱼和炸土豆片在英语是很受欢迎的膳食。
6、“one/each of+复数名词”作主语“one/each of+复数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
如：--Each of the students, working hard at his or her lessons, ______ to go to university.--So do I.A. hopeB. hopesC. hopingD. hoped[分析]答案是B。
“each of+复数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
7、前后名词有every等修饰的并列结构作主语“every (no, each, many a)+单数名词+and+every (no, each, many a)+单数名词”作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
如：Every desk and every chair in the classroom is new.教室里的每张桌椅都是新的。
