主谓一致问题

以并列结构作主语的主谓一致问题
（一）、由and/both...and连接的并列主语
由and或both....and....连接的并列结构作主语时，如果意义为复数，谓语动词用复数。

例如：
The fishing and the hunting in Arizona were good that year. Both Pauline and her son Bob have gone fishing on Miramar Lake.
如果作主语的并列结构不是指两个或两个以上的人或物，而是表示单数意义，则动词用单数。

例如：
(Ham and eggs) is a good breakfast.
指火腿煎蛋
（Brown bread and butter）is usually eaten with smoked salmon. 指黄油面包
The secretary and treasurer is absent.
表示一个人两个职位
有一些带连词and 的省略结构形似单数，而意义为复数，随后的动词为复数。

例如：
(Good and bad taste )are inculcated by example.
=good taste and bad taste
当and连接的并列名词词组带有no,each,every,或者many a 等限定词时，随后的动词通常用单数(体现语法一致原则)。

例如：
Every boy and every girl in this room is entitled to a copy.
当然，也有一些由and 连接的并列主语，其单、复数意义不很明确，这就只能根据上下文判定了。

（二）由or/nor/either...or等连接的并列主语
由or,nor,either...or,neither...nor,not only...but also连接的并列结构作主语，随后的动词形式通常按照“就近原则”处理。

例如：
My sisters and my brother is likely to be at home. Either her father or her mother calls for her every afternoon.
Either my father and my brothers are coming. Neither the Kansas players nor the coach was overconfident.
Neither the Kansas coach nor the players were confident
of victory.
Not only the switches but also the old wiring has been changed.
(三)、主语+as much as等
当主语后面跟有由as much as,rather than,more than,no less than等引导的从属结构时，随后的动词形式依主语本身的单复数而定。

例如：
Some of the workers as much as the managers were responsible for the loss.
His brother rather than his parents is to blame.
My wife,more than anyone else in the family,is anxious to go there again.
（四）、主语+as well as 等
当主语后面有由as well as,in addition to,with,along with,together with,except等引导的词组时，其后的动词形式也取决于主语本身的形式。

例如：
The manager with some workers was working during the holidays.
The father,as well as his sons,is going to enroll.。
