2016屆中考英語主要句式復習
［誤］ each sides are full of trees
［正］ each side is full of trees
［誤］ both side is full of trees
［正］ both sides are full of trees

［誤］ the boys each has an apple
［正］ the boys each have an apple
［析］ each 作同位語時，不影響句子的主語。

［誤］ the number of the workers in that factory are two hundred
［正］ the number of the workers in that factory is two hundred
［析］ the number of 意為：某某的數字是…… 如： the number of students 學生人數， the number of players 運動員人數。不論數字如何都應看作單數。而 a number of 與 many 意思相同，其后加可數名詞復數，謂語動詞用復數形式。如： a number of students are playing on the grass
［誤］ the rest of the students is here
［正］ the rest of the students are here
［誤］ the rest of the work are done
［正］ the rest of the work is done
［析］ the rest of 的用法與2/3，一半，80％＋ of 的結構一致， of 后面為可數名詞復數時用復數謂語動詞，為不可數名詞或可數名詞單數時用單數謂語動詞。這樣用法還有 lots of， a lot of， plenty of。

［正］ the news in today's newspaper is not bad
［析］ 有些以 s 結尾的名詞要用作不可數名詞，它們是：news， physics， mathematics， thanks， …
［誤］ the chinese is kind and friendly
［正］ the chinese are kind and friendly
［析］ chinese 作為中文來講是單數名詞，但作為中國人講是單復同形的名詞。如： one chinese， two chinese … 而 the chinese ＝ the people of china 要用復數謂語動詞。
［誤］ this dictionary is too expensive for me ten dollars are a big sum for me
［正］ this dictionary is too expensive for me ten dollars is a big sum for me

［誤］ who are going to take part in our football match?
［正］ who is going to take part in our football match?
［析］ 用 who 提問時，習慣上用單數謂語動詞，但 which 則要視其情況而定，如： which are better these shoeses or those shoes? 又如： which is better this one or that one?
