大学英语六级阅读改错指导：主谓一致
发布时间：2013/8/10 23:47:12 来源：城市网学院 编辑：admin
当句子本身较长，主语与谓语之间有其他插入成分时，往往会出现主谓不一致的情况；另一情况就是如果主语不是通常的代词和名词，而是从句、非谓语动词短语或者是一些特殊的短语等，也会出现主谓不一致的问题.
考点例析：
例1：There is therefore a need for resources and methods of
teaching that facilitates a deep understanding of science in ________
an enjoyable way. （2006 .12）
解析：这句话that引导的是一个定语从句，在找错误前首先要了解先行词究竟是哪个（teaching，resources and methods还是need？）。根据意思，应该是“教学资源和教学方法使得对科学的深刻了解变得更容易”，所以这个定语从句的先行词应该是resources and methods，of teaching只是作resources and methods的定语。先行词是复数，从句的谓语也应该用复数形式，所以将facilitates改为facilitate。
例2：Whether women who have started a career will attain
pay equality with men rest on at least two factors. _________ （1996. 1）
解析：这个句子的主语是Whether women who have started a career will attain pay equality with men，谓语是rest，单个从句作主语时，谓语动词要用单数，所以将rest改为rests。
例3：The whole monstrous growth rests on economic prosperity, but
behind it lies two myths: the myth of the city as a promised _________
land and the myth of the country as a Garden of Eden. （2002 . 6）
解析：behind it lies two myths这个句子是倒装句，真正的主语是two myths，所以谓语动词lies改为lie。
例4：Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies
make to their first spoken words lead to considerable difficulties. _________
解析：这样的长句子首先要找出主谓部分。Any attempt是主语，to trace the development from the noises是attempt的定语，babies make to their first spoken words则是做定语从句修饰noises，那么这个句子的谓语就是lead了。主语any attempt是单数，所以谓语也要改成单数leads。
