15、末-y为i再加-es 的形式。个别助词也需体现一致关系，如shall/should用于第一人称单、复数主语，will/would用于第三人称单、复数主语，will/would用于第三人单、复数主语。,倘若这些助动词与主语的一致关系发生悖逆，则助动词甚至全句表达的语义往往会发生变异。,He is an honest man.他是个诚实的人。He was a doctor when he was young.他年轻时当过医生。You are just the man I want.你正是我要找的人。I took a quick glance at the house and noticed it

16、was very old.我瞥了一眼房子，注意到房子已很古旧了。I figure you people are pretty well fixed.我估计你们这些人的境遇都很不错。,So you are all going to Hang Zhou for your holidays.Lucky you!这么说，你们全都要去杭州度假。你们可真运气！The vehicle was found abandoned near the village.车子被发现扔在村子附近。Anything black absorbs most of the light rays that fall on it.任何

19、受的了。,5.1.2 逻辑一致1）逻辑一致是指谓语动词的形式不取决于主语的表层语法形态，而取决于它的深层逻辑含义。虽然一个做主语的名词的形式是单数，但如果它表示的是复数的含义，谓语动词也应用复数形式，反之亦然。有时同一个词在不同的语境表示不同的逻辑意义，则需要依据其含义使用不同的动词形式，应注意体味、把握不同的动词形式，应注意体味、把握不同的动词形式所体现的主语的确切的逻辑含义：,The family(be)a happy one.那是个幸福的家庭。My family(be)all tall.我的家人个子都很高大。,The recent statistics on marriage(be)in

22、人数最多不能超过50人。Two hours is the time limit for the examination.本次考试时限为两个小时。Is ten dollars a big sum to him?对他来说十块钱就是个大数目吗？,3）用连接词连接的主语后的谓语动词的数视情况而定。一般说来，用and连接的并列主语后用复数动词，但如果and连接的是指同一个事物或人，或指联系密切、常作为一个整体看待的人或事物，谓语动词也用单数；用as well as连接的名词词组与连接语之前的名词的数一致；名词后用介词with连接其他名词时，动词与with之前的名词的数一致；用bothand连接的并列名词

23、主语往往用复数动词，如：,A knife and fork is needed when one is eating.人们进餐时需要用刀叉。A cart and horse was what he needed to carry himself away.他只需要一辆马车把自己载走。This bread and butter is too thick.这片涂黄油的面包太厚了。A watch and chain was given to him by his father as a birthday present.父亲送他一块带链的表作为生日礼物。A rod and line is neede

25、 every two weeks.她和她的两个女儿每隔一周要到农场来度一次周末。,4）含有否定意义的不定代词或其他一些不定代词做主语时，谓语动词往往用单数，其中none是例外。用含有every 构成的合成词做主语时，句子后边部分的代词往往遵循逻辑一致原则用复数；表示数目意义的词做主语往往用单数动词；形容词前边加定冠词表一类人或事物时，后边动词用复数；形容词性从句中动词的数往往与从句先行词的数一致,Each of them is to pay his own fine.他们得各人付自己的罚款。There was nobody there.那儿一个人也没有。There is nothing I s

26、hould enjoy more.这是我最大的乐事。Nevertheless,none of the scientists on the scene were prepared for the awesome scale of the events that soon followed.然而，在现场的科学家们并没有一位对即将面临的可怕事件有所准备。Everybody initiates and receives messages in some form or other.每个人都以不同的方式发出并接收信息。,11 minus 4 leaves 7.十一减去四得七。28divided by 4

37、语动词可用单数，也可以用复数的情况 1 就近一致原则 这种情况下，谓语动词使用单数还是复数取决于最靠近该动词的主语的单复数，存在这种情况的主要由以下几种可能：,1）由连词 eitheror;neithernor;whether or;not onlybut(also);or 等连接的并列主语 如：Neither money nor fame has influence on me.Not only you but also he is wrong.,2)在倒装结构中，谓语动词与后面的第一个主语一致 如：Blocking the open-sided porch,framed by the en
