注意特例:

(1)-s, -ss, -o, -x, -sh, -ch 结尾的词要加-es

如:misses,kisses,does,fixes,brushes,astonishes,scratches (2)元音字母+y结尾+s;辅音字母+y结尾,要变成辅音字母+ies;

主谓一致用法总结

主谓一致 使用主谓一致时,必须遵循三个原则,即语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。 一、当单数可数名词、不可数名词、复合不定代词、单个不定式(疑问词+不定式)、动名词或主语从句以及表示“时间、价值、重量、距离、书名、影片名称”等名词作主语时,谓语动词通常用单数形式。例如: The curtains are closed and the living room is dark when Mom and Dad enter. Visiting a place like this is always very interesting. Why pleasant smells do not reduce pain in men is a question still to be answered by scientists. 二、all(some, a lot, plenty, any, part, the rest, most等)+of+名词作主语以及分数、百分数构成短语作主语时,谓语动词单复数形式取决于of后的名词或代词。表示复数概念用复数;表示单数概念用单数。例如: As a result of the serious flood, two-thirds of the buildings in the area need repairing. One study says that 90% of our time is spent watching television

or using computers. While the rest of the passengers were getting out, she glanced at the faces around her. 三、在“名词/代词+介宾结构+谓语+…”结构中,谓语动词与名词/代词保持一致,介宾结构看作插入成分。该结构中的常见介词及介词短语有with, together with, along with, as well as, like, but, except, besides, including等。例如: Healthy eating along with regular exercise is probably the only way to become fit. Nobody but Tom and his father has ever been there. 四、a number of / a group of / a variety of / a total of 等构成短语作主语时,谓语动词用复数形式;而the number of / the group of / the variety of / the total of 等构成短语作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式。例如: The low number of attacks that happen every year proves that sharks do not feed on humans if they have the choice. Nowadays, a large number of women, especially those from the countryside, work in the clothing industry. 五、quality / pair / amount等构成短语作主语时,谓语动词根据

初中英语名词用法概要

名词及其用法 一、单数与复数 1. 复数的构成 (1)名词由单数变为复数时,在一般情况下是在词尾加上-s。如: a desk 一张课桌→two desks 两张课桌one room 一个房间→some rooms 一些房间 (2)如果一个名词以s, x, z, sh, ch 等结尾,那么其复数就是在加词尾-es。如:a boss 一位老板→many bosses 许多位老板 a fox 一只狐狸→a lot of foxes 许多狐狸this watch 这块手表→these watches 这些手表 (3) 如果一个名词以y结尾,则其复数构成要分两种情况: (3.1) 以“辅音字母+y”结尾的名词,将y 改为ies;以“元音字母+y”结尾的名词,直接加词尾-s。如: a family 一个家庭→many families 许多家庭one monkey 一只猴子→several monkeys 几只猴子 (3.2) 如果一个名词以字母o 结尾,则情况有点复杂,因为有些是加词尾-s构成复数,而有些则要加词尾-es构成复数,还有一些则加-s或-es都可以。如: a zoo 一个动物园→three zoos 三个动物园(3.3)在英语中,以字母o结尾的名词绝大部分其复数形式通过加词尾-s构成的,只有少数的要加词尾-es,其中比较常见的需要通过加词尾-es构成复数的名词有4个,它们是: tomato→tomatoes 西红柿potato→potatoes 土豆hero→heroes 英雄Negro→Negro 黑人 (4)英语中还有一些名词是以-f或-fe 结尾的,它们在变为复数时也有两种可能,即有些直接加词尾-s,有些则把-f / -fe 改为-ves。在这些名词中,一些日常生活中的常用词通常是采用把-f / -fe 改为-ves 来变为复数,如:wife(妻子),life(生命),knife(小刀),leaf(树叶),thief(贼),half(一半),self(自己),shelf(架子),loaf(面包),wolf(狼)等。 2. 单复数同形 (1)英语中有些名词在由单数变为复数时,其形式与仍采用与单数一样的形式。比较常见的有:sheep 绵羊fish 鱼deer 鹿Chinese 中国人Japanese 日本人 Swiss 瑞士人aircraft 飞行器means 方法works 工厂 (2)其中fish这个词值得特别注意,它的复数形式通常与单数同形。如:There are plenty of fish in the sea. 海里有许多鱼。 (2.1)句中的fish虽在形式上为单数,但其用法为复数。不过,人们有时也用fishes来表示复数。如:We caught three little fishes. 我们抓到三条小鱼。 (2.2)另外,fishes还可表示不同种类的鱼。如:There were fishes of many sizes. 有各种大小的鱼。

专题七名词与主谓一致一、考情分析 近年来对名词的考查主要集中在名词词义辨析及并列主语的主谓一致上,其次是名词所有格、抽象名词和物质名词的具体化以及不定数量的词或词组与名词的搭配关系上。 考查考生在理解题干内容的基础上对词汇或语法知识的掌握情况,加重对语境理解及语言知识相融合的考查。 二、名词的数 英语中大多数可数名词都可以通过加-s或–es的方法变为复数名词。不可数名词(抽象或物质)没有复数形式,专有名词一般只有单数形式,只有少数专有名词才有复数形式。 (一)规则变化 (二)一些特殊情况 1. 合成名词变为复数时,通常把主体名词变为复数,如果没有主体名词,将最后一部分变为复数。如: Sons-in-law, passers-by, story-tellers,housewives等

2. family, team, class, group, government, crowd, audience等作主语时,如果作为整体看待,谓语动词用单数,如果看成成员,谓语动词用复数。 某些集体名词,如people, polic, youth, cattle等及clothes, trousers, shoes, glasses 作主语时,谓语用复数。若这类名词与a pair of 等词连用时,谓语动词往往用单数。 3. 单、复数同形的名词如means(方法)作主语时,应根据意义决定谓语动词的单复数。 4. 有些名词呈现了复数形式,如news,manners, politics, physics 等但并不表示复数概念。 5. 有些名词总是在使用时用其复数形式,如thanks, regards, congratulations, goods, works, tears, instructions, directions, respects 等。 6. 有些短语要求用名词复数形式. 如 make friends with shake hands with take pains to do sth. make both ends meet … (三)名词与表示数量的词或短语的搭配

(完整版)高一英语“主谓一致”用法归纳

高一英语“主谓一致”用法归纳 一、基本概念 所谓一致关系(Agreement)就是在英语句子中各个成分之间必须在人称、数、性等方面要保持一定的语法关系。在英语中最主要的一致关系是主语与谓语动词之间的一致。在判断一个句子主语、谓语是否一致时,要遵循下列三个原则:语法一致原则、意义一致原则和就近一致原则。一般来说,主语的单复数形式决定着谓语动词需要采用的单复数形式。比较:The student studies very hard.这个学生学习非常努力。The students study very hard.这些学生学习非常努力。 主谓一致的原则说起来简单,但在实际使用中遇到的情况要复杂很多。在处理主谓一致的问题时,可依据上面提到的三个原则。“语法一致”也就是平常说的从语法形式上取得一致,即主语为单数形式,谓语动词亦用单数形式。“意义一致”就是从意义着眼来处理主谓语一致问题。有时,主语形式为单数,但意义为复数,谓语动词依意义而定,也采用复数形式。“就近原则”是指谓语动词的人称和数往往和其最近的主语保持一致。 二、基本用法 1.集合名词与谓语动词的一致 集合名词作主语,如果表示整体概念,谓语动词用单数形式;如果强调其成员,则用复数形式。常用的集合名词有: army,audience,class,club,committee,company,couple,crowd,family,flock,group,government,j-ury, majority,minority,organization,party,personnel,publ-ic,staff,team,union等。 The football team are discussing the problem with the coach now. 足球队员们现在正在与教练讨论这个问题。 The police have caught the criminal.警察已经逮捕了那个罪犯。 The majority were/was for the proposal.大多数人赞同这个提议。 Only a minority of students receive the scholarship.只有少数学生获得了奖学金。 【注意】 (1)有些有生命的集合名词作主语时,谓语动词只用复数。这样的名词常用的有:cattle,people,police,folk等。 The cattle are grazing in the fields.牛在田里吃草。 (2)无生命的集合名词作主语时,谓语动词常用单数形式。这样的名词常用的有:clothing,furniture,machinery,jewellery等。 Warm clothing is necessary in cold climates.气候寒冷的地方需要暖和的衣服。 All the furniture has been moved to another room. 所有家具已经搬到了另一个房间里。 2.由either...or...,neither...nor...,not only...but(also)...连接的两个名词或代词作主语时,主谓一致遵循就近原则,即谓语动词应与最近的一个主语的人称和数保持一致。 Either he or I am wrong.不是他错就是我错。 Not only the students but(also) the teacher is active in sports and games.不但学生,就连老师都积极参加体育运动。 Does neither the teacher nor the students know this matter? 教师和学生都不知道这件事吗? 【经典回放】 Either you or one of your students ______ to attend the meeting that is due tomorrow.
