4.5 means, politics, physics, plastics作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式. 5. 具体情况原则
5.1 all, few, more, most, some, any, none, half, the rest等作主语时，既可表示复数意义，也可表示单数意义，谓语动词要根据实际情况而定： All of the apple is rotten. 整个苹果都烂了。不可数-> 谓单

5.4 the number of + 名词复数，是表示“…的数字”，作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式；
a (large / great) number of + 名词复数，表示许多，作主语时；谓语动词用复数形式: The number of the students in our school is increasing year after year. A number of students have gone for an outing.
5.5 有些集体名词如family, team, group, class, audience, government等作主语时，如看作
是一个整体，谓语动词则用单数形式；如强调各个成员时，谓语动词要用复数形式： My family is going to have a long journey. My family are fond of music. The class has won the honour. The class were jumping for joy. 6. 先行词原则
关系代词who, that, which等在定语从句中作主语时，其谓语动词的数应与句中先行词的数一致。 He is one of my friends who are working hard. 先行词
He is the only one of my friends who is working hard. 先行词
