Mathematics,inadditiontohistoryandscience,ISarequiredsubject.2.学科词(physics,mathematics)/一些活动如有氧运动(aerobics)/一些疾病如糖尿病ManhattanSC__5thEditionJoannaQian4(diabetes)虽然以s结尾,仍属单数名词,谓语动词用单数。注:有且只有“and”可以将单数主语改编成复数主语。其他添加伴随连接词的单数主语,依然是单数主语。(五)either…or,neither…nor1.就近一致原则Eg:Neitherthecoachnortheplayersaregoingtothebeach.NeithertheplayersnorthecoachISgoingtothebeach.2.若仅仅只有either/neither,没有or/nor,谓语动词一定要用单数(六)集合性名词:在GMAT中一般被认为是单数,跟单数谓语People:agency,army,audience,class,committee,crowd,orchestra,teamItems:baggage,citrus(橙类),equipment,fleet(舰队/小河),fruit,furnituree.g.TheCROWDinthestandsIScheeringloudlyasthehomeTEAMTAKESthefield.OurARMYofahundredthousandsoldiersISattackingtheenemy.(七)不定代词(-one,-body,-thing)谓语一般用单数;特殊5个记为SANAM谓语需根据后面的“OF介宾短语”中的名词确定谓语单复数(但不绝对)Anyone/anybody/anythingnoone/nobody/nothingsomeone/somebody/somethingeveryone/everybody/everythingeach/every,either/neither(若带or则就近一致),whatever/whoever**特殊情况SANAM—Some/Any/None/All/More,Most1.some/all/more,most/part/harf的谓语看介宾短语Eg:Someofthemoneywasstolen.Someofthedocumentswerestolenfromthebank.HalfofthepieISblueberry,andhalfof
