3.(★★★★★)Nobody but you________ what he said. (全国重点中学大联考冲刺题)
A.agrees with B.agrees out C.agree with D.agree to
命题意图：考查词组“同意……”和主语为nobody类的不定代词时，谓语单复数的确定，该题属五星级题。
知识依托：主语为nobody时谓语动词用单数，如果主语被but,as well as,with等短语修饰，谓语仍与主语的数保持一致。
错题分析：该题易误选C、D，选D的原因在于词组记忆不清，用介词to时之后应加具体项目。而选择C就在于误把you做为主语对待了。而实际上nobody才是主语。
答案：A
2.Not only I but also Mary and Jane ________ tired of having one examination after another. (NMET1989)
A.is B.are C.am D.be
命题意图：考查主谓一致中的就近原则。本题属四星级题。
知识依托：由not only…but also连接并列主语时，谓语与最靠近的主语保持一致。
错解分析：本题易误选C，易误认为I 为主语，而实际上决定谓语单复数的是由Jane and Mary决定，应用就近原则，故排除C，同理排除A。
解题方法与技巧：熟记要点：
在英语中，主谓一致有三个原则：语法一致的原则，语意一致的原则和就近原则。此题是就近原则，所以答案为B。
答案：B
1.More than________ of the workers________ from Paris.
A.ten percents;is B.ten percent;are
C.three times;was D.percents ten;comes
命题意图：考查分数、百分数的表示法及此时的主谓一致，本题属四星级题。
知识依托：分数或百分数+of+名词作主语时，谓语与of后的名词在数上保持一致。
错解分析：解该题时易误选A，误把百分之十作为整体处理，而没有考虑到是百分之十多的工人。此时所指为复数概念。
解题方法与技巧：与此情况类似的是表示部分和一定数量的名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词也应与介词of后的名词保持数的一致。这些词有：
e.g.(1)Most of the money has been wasted.
(2)Every year,lots of damage is caused by fire.
例如：
(1)Quantities of food are wasted every day.
(2)Amounts of money were spent on this project.
(这两个词的用法是主谓一致中的难点，同时也是常考点)
