主謂一致
1.(2013·福建卷)The famous musician,as well as his students,________to perform at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Taipei Flower Expo.
A.were invited B.was invited
C.have been invited D.has been invited
解析: 句意為:那位著名音樂家和他的學(xué)生應(yīng)邀在2012年臺(tái)北花博會(huì)開幕式上演出。本題既考查主謂一致又考查動(dòng)詞的時(shí)態(tài)。題干中的主語是The famous musician,是單數(shù)形式,排除A和C項(xiàng)。根據(jù)the 2012 Taipei Flower Expo可知謂語動(dòng)詞需用過去時(shí)態(tài),排除D項(xiàng)。
答案: B
2.(2013·江蘇卷)Generally,students’ inner motivation with high expectations from others________essential to their development.
A.is B.a(chǎn)re
C.was D.were
解析: 句意為:一般來說,學(xué)生們的內(nèi)在動(dòng)機(jī)及來自他人的高期望對(duì)他們的發(fā)展是必要的。本題考查主謂一致。本題中由with連接兩個(gè)成分,即A with B,謂語動(dòng)詞的單復(fù)數(shù)應(yīng)該和A保持一致,所以本句謂語動(dòng)詞應(yīng)該和students’ inner motivation保持一致,用單數(shù)。本句說的是一般情況,所以用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)。
答案: A
