2024年高考语法考点讲解与真题分析
10主谓一致
高考对主谓一致的考查非常灵活,除对有关主谓一致的基本规则考查外,主要考查学生对主语的辨识能力,主要是在主语前后添加修饰语。主要有:主语前有分数、百分数或数量词修饰;主语后有各种短语,尤其是介词短语修饰;定语从句中准确辨识先行词等。
考点一 带有修饰语的主谓一致
主语后有短语或从句修饰时,这些修饰语不影响主语的人称和数;主语前的修饰语一般情况下也不影响主语的人称和数,如:在“many a + 单数名词”中,中心词是单数名词;在“more than one + 单数名词”中,中心词是单数名词。但是主语前有数量词时,谓语动词应用与数量词在数上保持一致。
