Identifying Sentence Errors

一、主谓一致

1. 就前原则

(1) N1 of N2 verb（SAT考试中动词的单复数与N1有关，与N2无关）

如： a group of students are

the details of the problems are

例：The bright (A) fiberglass sculptures of Luis Jimenez has received (B) critical acclaim not only (P161.1)

(2) 名词1+介词+名词2 如：students in the classroom

名词，插入语，verb

名词+doing/done 如：students studying hard

例：Flints found in (A) the region extending from the Nile Valley to (B) the highlands of eastern (P166.3)

2.“欲擒故纵”法

动词单复数做题基本原则是就前原则，如果句子太长、太难、太复杂时，用“欲擒故纵”法。

3.动词单复数的特殊固定用法

(1) a number of 一些；一般情况下其后动词用复数，（不受任何规律限制）；

the number of 的数量；其后的动词在任何情况下都用单数。

量词考点：a group/list/line of 使用“就前原则”

(2) 倒装结构：就后原则。

如：here comes the bus

a. 地点状语+动词+主语

b. Only置于句首的倒装

例：In the foothills of that large mountain range is (A) the sources of a river whose course (B) was (P 776.19)
