应考对策

“主谓一致”是近几年中考设题的热点之一，它在初中英语教材中未被列入专项语法内容。因此，同学们对此常不知所措，为了帮助老师们更好地为学生搞好复习，现归纳如下：

l、表示时间、距离、重量、长度、价值等的复数名词作主语表示整体概念时，其谓语动词常用单数形式。如：
Two months is quite a long time. 两个月是相当长的一段时间。

2、以-s结尾的名词本身不表示复数意义时，谓语动词通常用单数形式。如news，maths，physics等。如：
No news is good news. 没有消息就是好消息。 
Maths is very popular in our class. 在我们班数学很受欢迎。

3、family，class，team，group等集体名词作主语，若指一个整体时，谓语动词用单数形式；若指具体成员时，谓语动词用复数形式。试比较：
My family is a very big one，with ten people in it. 我家是一个大家庭，有十口人。
My family all like watching TV．我们全家人都喜欢看电视。

4、people, police等集体名词作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。如：
People here are very friendly. 这儿的人们很友好。
The police are having a meeting． 警察们正在开会。
