A poet and artist with high fame ______ coming to speak to us about Chinese literature
and painting tomorrow afternoon.
A.isB.areC.wasD.were
A

试题分析:考查主谓一致:句意:一个很有名气的诗人兼艺术家明天要来给我们做关于汉语文学和绘画的演讲。句子的主语A poet and artist (一个诗人和艺术家)只用了一个“a”所以是指同一个人,所以答案为A,如果改为A poet and a artist 就要选B了。
点评:在英语中,句子的主语和谓语动词要保持数上的一致关系,叫主谓一致。这种关系通常要遵循下面三条原则:1.语法一致原则。句子的主语是单数形式,谓语动词要用单数形式;主语是复数形式,谓语动词用复数形式2.意义一致原则即谓语动词该用单数还是复数取决于主语所表达的内容在含义是单数意义还是复数意义。3.邻近原则谓语动词该用单数还是复数形式,取决于最邻近它的名词、代词或其它词的数。
