88. 关于主谓一致的注意点 <一> 例句

The professor with a number of students was doing experiments in chemistry lab at that time.

那时教授带了很多学生正在实验室做化学实验。 <二> 语法分析

句子的主语是单数，尽管后面带有with, as well as, rather than, like, but, except, besides和along等连接的名词，谓语仍用单数形式。但在口语中，有时根据观念一致的原则，谓语可以用复数形式。连词or, either...or, neither...nor, whether..or, not only...but also和

not...but等连接并列主语，谓语的单复数依从临近原则来决定。关系代词who, that, which等在定语从句中做主语，谓语动词的数应与先行词的数一致。 <三> 触类旁通
