CET4語法復(fù)習之一
動賓一致
英語語法規(guī)定，用于賓語的詞語應(yīng)使用它們的賓格。能夠用做賓語的詞類中只有人稱代詞有特別的賓格形式，其他詞類如名詞原形即可用于賓格，無須變化。詞與詞之間的固定搭配屬于英語的慣用法。一些動詞與它們用于賓語的名詞之間也存在固定搭配現(xiàn)象。
【例如】
to acquire knowledge
獲得知識
to get a job
獲得工作
to obtain a position
獲得工作 ( 語氣較莊重 )
to achieve success
獲得成功
to gain reputation
獲得聲譽
to attain one's end
達到目的
to do sb. a favor
請幫忙
這類慣用法沒有太多的章法可循 , 只有在平時的閱讀中多看，多記。
時態(tài)一致
時態(tài)一致
1) 并列謂語的時態(tài)一致。
【例如】 Yesterday I went shopping, bought some books and had dinner at a good restaurant.
The soldier looked at him, exchanged glances with his comrade and took out the gun.
2) 主從復(fù)合句的時態(tài)一致。
a) 主句為現(xiàn)在時、將來時、現(xiàn)在完成時，賓語從句謂語動詞時態(tài)按情況而定。
【例如】
I wonder what will happen tomorrow.
I wonder what happened to him yesterday.
I wonder what is happening now outside.
b) 主句為過去時態(tài)，賓語從句一般用過去時態(tài)。如果賓語從句說明的是客觀真理，用一般現(xiàn)在時。
【例如】
He told me he made a big mistake.
He told me he would go to Beijing the next day.
He told he had finished his task.
The teacher told students that the earth moves around the sun.( 客觀真理 )
3) 定語從句和比較狀語從句時態(tài)不受主句影響。
【例如】
The universityswhereshe is studying was founded in 1950.
You now speak English better than you spoke it last year.
4) 時間和條件狀語從句中，常用現(xiàn)在時表示將來。
【例如】
We will cancel our trip if it rains tomorrow.
I will go to visit the Summer Palace as soon as I arrive in Beijing .
集合名詞的主謂一致
集合名詞作主語時，主謂一致關(guān)系是一個較為復(fù)雜的問題。對此類問題我們可以從“數(shù)”的角度分為四類。
1) 單數(shù)—復(fù)數(shù)型。凡是有復(fù)數(shù)詞尾變化形式的集合名詞都屬于此類。如： a class — classes; a family — families; a government—governments; an army—armies; a people—peoples; a group—groups; a crowd—crowds; a crew — crews 等。這類集合名詞強調(diào)的是整體性，即當作一個整體或多個整體來看待。屬于這類集合名詞的單數(shù)作主語時，謂語動詞用單數(shù)；復(fù)數(shù)形式作主語時，謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)。
【例如】
A big crowd often gathers on the square every morning.
The government has decided to pass the bill.
There are huge crowds in the streets on Sunday.
There are many English-speaking peoples in the world.
但應(yīng)注意，這類集合名詞的單數(shù)形式有時表示復(fù)數(shù)概念，所以這些集合名詞的單數(shù)形式也可歸為“單復(fù)同形型”中。
2) 單數(shù)型。這類集合名詞表示的是人或事物的整體，即把這類人或事物的全部包括在內(nèi)，所以只有單數(shù)形式。如作主語，謂語動詞常用單數(shù)。這類名詞常見的有： humanity, mankind, proletariat 等。
【例如】 The proletariat is the greatest class in the history of mankind. In the fields of production and scientific experiment, mankind makes constant progress.
3) 復(fù)數(shù)型。這類集合名詞在形式和內(nèi)容上是相互矛盾的，就是說它們只有單數(shù)形式，但表達的都是復(fù)數(shù)概念。它強調(diào)的是集體中的個體性。這類名詞有： police, cattle, faculty, flock, machinery, vermin, personnel 等。它們作主語時，謂語動詞要用復(fù)數(shù)。
【例如】 The police have caught the murder.
Our personnel are very highly trained.
The vermin are very dangerous.
4) 單復(fù)同形型。這類集合名詞的單數(shù)形式既可表示單數(shù)也可表示復(fù)數(shù)。作主語時，用單數(shù)動詞或復(fù)數(shù)動詞均可，有時意義區(qū)別不大。
【例如】 The school teaching staff are (is) excellent.
The public is (are) requested not to litter in the park.
The teaching profession claim(s) to be badly paid.
這類集合名詞常見的有： class, family, team, crew, board, herd, committee, party, jury, enemy, audience 等。
根據(jù)說話人的心理意向若把這個集合名詞所代表的人或事物看作一個整體，就認為是單數(shù)，用單數(shù)動詞；若把它所代表的人或事物看作若干個個體的話，就認為其為復(fù)數(shù)，用復(fù)數(shù)動詞。
試比較： The football team is playing well.
那個足球隊打得非常漂亮。
The football team areshavingsbath and are then coming back here for tea.
足球隊員們正在洗澡，然后來這里吃茶點。
The family is a very happy one.
那個家庭是一個非常幸福的家庭。
That family are very pleased about the news of William's success.
全家人對威廉的成功都感到很高興。 “一致”部分練習題 ( 附答案 )

CET4 語法：主謂一致的三條原則
在大學英語四級測試的“詞匯與結(jié)構(gòu)”一題中，考查主語和謂語一致關(guān)系的試題居多。所以主謂一致是各類一致關(guān)系中應(yīng)該重點掌握的內(nèi)容。現(xiàn)代英語主謂一致大致要遵循以下三條原則： 1) 語法一致原則。主語是單數(shù)，謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式；主語是復(fù)數(shù)，謂語動詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式。
【例如】
My friend has no intention of going shopping with me.
My friends have no intention of going shopping with me.
2) 意義一致原則。主語和謂語的一致不是由主語的語法形式來決定，而是由主語所表達的意義決定。
【例如】
The class are busying writing English passages.
The United States is a developed country which has advanced science and technology.
帶有復(fù)數(shù)詞尾的學科名稱、國家等在意義是表示單數(shù)概念，用單數(shù)動詞。
3) 就近原則。謂語動詞的單、復(fù)數(shù)取決于最靠近它的主語。由 either....or, neither....nor, not only....but also 連接或由 here, there 等引導(dǎo)的句子，謂語動詞遵循這一原則。
【例如】 Neither my friends nor I was able to persuade him to accept our advice.
Either he or she has broken the window, for there is no one else there.
There is a teacher and fifty students in the classroom. |
