思馬得英語100個句子學(xué)英語語法（88）：關(guān)于主謂一致的注意點
<一> 例句

那時教授帶了很多學(xué)生正在實驗室做化學(xué)實驗。
<二> 語法分析
句子的主語是單數(shù)，盡管后面帶有with, as well as, rather than, like, but, except, besides和along等連接的名詞，謂語仍用單數(shù)形式。但在口語中，有時根據(jù)觀念一致的原則，謂語可以用復(fù)數(shù)形式。連詞or, either...or, neither...nor, whether..or, not only...but also和not...but等連接并列主語，謂語的單復(fù)數(shù)依從臨近原則來決定。關(guān)系代詞who, that, which等在定語從句中做主語，謂語動詞的數(shù)應(yīng)與先行詞的數(shù)一致。
