主谓一致
试题选例： (7) Every possible means___________ to prevent the air pollution, but the sky in still not clear. A. is ud B. are ud C. has been ud D. have been ud 答案C。根据Every…means(每一…手段)，判断主语为单数，故动词用单数；但需强调经验和结果，选C而排除A。
知识要点：1. 跟and不一样，as well as，together with，along with (和…一起).，rather than(而不是)，紫菜鸡蛋汤怎么做including等，加上名词或代词出现在主语后时，不影响主语的单复数，如Peter as well as Tom 香肠的制作方法及配方dislikes studying．[不同于Peter and Tom dislike studying．]／Bob，rather than his elder brothers，was able to solve the problem．
2. 当主语由并列成分构成时，动词的单复数与最靠近的主语成分取得一致，如There is a pen and some books on the desk．[There are some books and a pen on the desk．]／Either you or he is to blame．[Either he or you are to blame．]
3. 表示时间、距离、重量、金额等的主语为复数时，动词(一般为be)用单数，如Ninety minutes is the time limit for the examination．[但Ninety minutes have pasd now .]
4. 由and连接的表示职业(职务)名称的词作主语时，若指同一个人(合用冠词我爱交朋友)为单数．若分别指两个人(分用冠词)则为复数，动词的单复数据此决定，如The singer and dancer is quite popular．／The singer and造价咨询合同 the dancer are quite popular.
5. 由every…and every…，each…and each…，no…and no…构成的并列主语，动词一般用单数，如：Every man and every woman enjoys free medical care in this country. ／No守望家风 teacher and no student is allowed to leave before school is over．
6. 由many a修饰单数可数名词作主语，意义为复数，形式属单数，动词用单数，如Many a man wishes for such a chance．[等于Many men wish for such a chance. ]

7. 包含成对意思的名称，呈现复数形式，如trours／pants(裤子)[由两条裤腿组成]，动词用复数。为了表明件数，可借助数量单位pair什么样的鼻子。这时动词的单复数视pair的单复数而定。
如The trours were bought last week．／This pair of trours was bought last week．／Two pairs of trours were bought last week围巾怎么洗．
8. 表示配对(使用)的物品(事物)，视为总称，如bread and butter(面包和牛油)，needle and thread (针线)，cau and effect (因果)，a knife and fork (刀叉)等，它们作主语时，动词用单数，如A knife and fork is on the table．
9. 由表示“几分之几”、“百分之几”、“单复数决定动词的单复数。
如One-third (Two-thirds) of her time is spent in writing. /One percent(Twenty percent)of the professors are from abroad. The rest of the money is in the bank. (The rest of the books are unsold．)
10. 在英语中，population (人口，全体人)一般为总称，作主语时为单数概念，动词也需用单数，如What is the population of Europe? (欧洲人口多少?)／The population pf the earth
is increasing fast．但如果用 “几分之几”等加以修饰时，population具有复数概念(相当于people)，作主语时，动词用复数，如One-fifth of the population here support the new policy. [动词非supports]
