谓语动词与前面的主语一致
当主语有with, along with, together with, like, besides, except, but, no less
tha , as well as, i additio to, rather tha , accompanied by

指代意义决定谓语的单复数
1)代词what, which, who, none, some, any, more, most,
all等词的单复数由其指代的词的单复数决定。例如:
All is right. 一切顺利。 All are present. 人都到齐了。

2)集体名词作主语时,谓语的数要根据主语的意思来决定。如family, audience, crew, crowd, class, company,
committee, staff, cabinet等词后,谓语动词用复数形式时强调这个集体中的各个成员,用单数时强调该集体的整体。
His family is ‘t very large. 他家成员不多。

但集合名词people, police, cattle, poultry(家禽)等在任何情况下都用复数形式。
与后接名词或代词保持一致
1) 用half of, most of, none of, heaps of, lots of, plenty of

他大部分的钱化在书上了。
Most of the students are taking a active part i sports.
大部分学生积极参与体育运动。
2)用a portio of, a series of, a pile of, a panel of 等引起主语时,谓语动词通常用单数。例如:

A pile of lots was set beside the hearth.
炉边有一堆木柴。
3)如 many a 或 more tha one 所修饰的短语作主语时,谓语动词多用单数形式。但由more tha … of
作主语时,动词应与其后的名词或代词保持一致。例如:
Many a perso has read the novel.
许多人读过这本书。
More tha 60 percent of the students are from the city.
百分之六十多的学生来自这个城市。
谓语需用单数
1) 代词each和由every, some, no, any等构成的复合代词作主语,或主语中含有each, every, 谓语需用单数。
