重庆学位英语语法考点
有关名词、代词做主语数的考点（主谓一致）
英语中，名词与代词做主语与谓语在数应该保持一致，但在实际应用中很容易被忽视，尤其是主语和谓语之间出现分隔，故考试中经常考到主谓一致，现将主谓一致的考点归纳如下：
考点一：复数原则：两个或者两个以上的名词由and连接作主语时，或主语由both … and … 连接时，谓语动词一般用复数。资料来源：31省市学位英语网（学位英语门户网）
如：Both reading and writing are very important. （读写都很重要。）注意：当主语由and连结时，如果它表示一个单一的概念，即指同一人或同一物时，谓语动词用单数，and 此时连接的两个词前只有一个冠词。（考查重点）例如：
The iron and steel industry is very important to our life. 钢铁工业对我们的生活有重要意义。（钢铁表示同一概念）
The playwright and director was present at the party last night. 编剧兼导演出席了昨晚的宴会。 (指同一个人) =>试比较： The playwright and the director were present at the party last night. 编剧和导演都出席了昨晚的宴会(指两个人)
考点二：就近原则： 由 either … or … ; neither … nor …; not only…but also…; …or …； there be …等引导的主语，谓语动词与最邻近的主语保持一致。资料来源：31省市学位英语网（学位英语门户网）
Not only the students but also their teacher is invited to attend the party. 不单是学生，他们的老师也被邀请到宴会。
Either you or she is to go. 不是你去，就是她去。
There is a pen, a knife and several books on the desk. 桌上有一支笔、一把小刀和几本书。
考点三：就远原则：当主语是由with, together with, like, except, but, no less than, as well as 等词组成的短语时，谓语动词与前面的主语部分一致。例如：
The teacher together with some students is visiting the factory. 教师和一些学生在参观工厂。
