2011高考英語單選題分類匯編:主謂一致
1. (2011湖26)One-third of the country _____ covered with trees and the majority of the citizens
black people.
A. is, are
B. is, is
C. are, are
D. are, is
解析:本題考查主謂一致。句意:這個國家的森林覆蓋面積占國土面積的三分之一,并且大多數市民都是黑人。“分數/百分數+名詞”作主語時,其謂語動詞的單復數取決于名詞的形式;“the majority of+名詞”作主語時,其謂語動詞的單復數也取決于名詞的形式。故本題選A項。
答案:A
2.(2011安徽27) The factory used 65 percent of the raw materials, the rest of which ______
saved for other purposes.
A. is
B. are
C. was
D. were
解析:本題考查主謂一致及時態。句意:“這家工廠使用了65%的原料,其余的被省下來用作其他用途。”題中the rest of which引導非限制性定語從句,which指代raw materials。the rest of which “其余的,剩余的”作主語時謂語動詞取決于其后所跟的名詞,而which指代剩余的raw materials,是復數名詞,因此謂語動詞應該用復數形式,根據前半句中的謂語動詞used可知從句也要用一般過去時,所以選D。
答案:D
