用and或both… and连接并列主语时，谓语用复数。
例：Plastics and rubber never rot.
He and I are classmates when we were at college.
Both bread and butter were sold out in that shop.
What he says and what he does do not agree.
但是：并列主语如果指的是同一人、同一事物或同一概念其谓语要用单数形式，这时and后面的名词没有冠词。
例： In this hotel, the bread and butter (= the bread with butter on it) is served for breakfast.
A cart and horse was seen in the distance.
The girl’s teacher and friend is a young doctor.
Truth and honesty is the best policy.

一些只有复数形式的名词如clothes, scissors, trousers, shorts, scales, glasses等，它们作主语时，谓语要用复数。
例：The scales are mine.
My trousers are being washed.
但：如果成双的东西前有a pair of来修饰时，谓语要用单数。
例：This pair of scissors belongs to the tailor.

表总称意义的名词public, police, cattle, people（人们、人民）作主语时，谓语动词用复数。
例：The police have not made any arrests.

例：The English speak English.

在主谓倒装句子中，谓语动词的数应与其后的主语一致。
例：Here comes an old lady.

关系代词who, that, which等在定语从句中作主语，其谓语动词的数应与句中先行词的数一致
例：Those who want to go please sign their names here.
Some of the energy that is used by man nowadays comes from the atom.

① a lot of, lots of, plenty of, a heap of(一堆), heaps of, a large quantity of等+n构成的短语作主语
②由分数、分数+n构成的短语作主语
③the rest of / the remainder of / most of/half of短语作主语,
其谓语动词要根据短语中后面名词的数而定，这是因为短语中后面的名词是中心词，而短语中前面的量词是修饰语。
例：There are lots of people.
Lots of damage was caused by the fire.
Three-fourths of the people here are doctors
Three-fourths of the surface of the earth is sea.
Only 30 percent of the students are…

有些名词，如family, team, group, crowd, crew, class, audience, government, company, committee等作主语时，如果看作一个整体用单数，如果就其中的一个成员而言，用复数。
例： family: My family is a big family.
My family are watching TV.
population: The population of the earth is increasing very fast.
What is the population of China?
One third of the population here are workers.

疑问代词who, what, which，不定代词all, some, any, none等，谓语动词须视情况分别采取复数或单数形式。
例：Who is your brother?
Who are league members?

在正式文体中，用连词or, either…or, neither…nor, whether…or, not only…but also等连接并列主语，如果一个是单数，一个是复数，则谓语动词按就近一致原则，与最靠近它的主语一致。
例：What he does or what he says does not concern me.
Either he or I know the truth.
He didn’t say whether some English novels or an English dictionary was wanted.
Not only he but also you are wrong.

LL英语很好？

在倒装句中，谓语动词往往和后面的第一个主语取得一致。
例：Where is your mother and younger sisters?
There is a notebook, a pen and some books on the desk.
In the distance was heard the applause of the people, the shouts and clapping of hands.
但：也可按语法一致原则处理倒装句中主谓一致的问题。
