个人GMAT语法笔记,综合Manhattan SC及 prep语法笔记
7.each/every做主语,单数:
由each/every开头+任何名词(不论单复数)单数谓语 Every dog and cat HAS paws.
复数名词(代词)+ each + 复数谓语 They each ARE great tennis players
9. a group of/ a body of/ an array of/ a series of/ s asset of/ a portion of+复数名词,谓
语动词用单数!
10. a total of, an average of+ 复数名词, 复数v
the average of + 复数名词, 单数v
10.一些表示学科的词(physics, mathematics)、一些活动-有氧运动(aerobics)和
一些疾病-糖尿病(diabetes)虽然以S结尾,仍属于单数名词,谓语动词用单数
当statistics做“统计数据”,economics做“经济政策”时,复数v; news 谓语动词用单数
species 物种(单数)
4.集合名词看做整体,谓语动词用单数:
People: agency, army, audience, class, committee, crowd, orchestra, team Items: baggage, citrus, equipment, fleet(舰队,小河), fruit, furniture
如果说一种动物比如 cat(无冠词)。。。后面代词用they
11. 定冠词the+姓氏、朝代、部族名称等,表示一群人,是集合名词,谓语要求用复
数。如the Smith 为史密斯一家,the Shang表示商朝人等。
12. only作形容词,表示唯一的一个,既然是唯一的一个,后面修饰的名词就不能是复数,否则语义及单复数前后矛盾 (only后面不能加复数名词?)
13.单复同形的词:fish,species (单复同形的名词单独出现看做复数)
14. (not) one of the+名词复数+单数形式谓语;Not one of =none of not one of 全部用单数 Not one of my friends IS here this weekend (none of may
friends are ) 但是none of 做主语 由后面的名词决定
