英语中的就近原则是什么意思？

Question

如题所述

Answer 1

【就近一致原则（Proximity）】
也称“邻近原则”，即：谓语与靠近的名词、代词（有时不一定是主语）在“人称、数”上一致。
（就近原则就是在遇到一些特定的词组或句型后，动词的单数复数看离他最近的那个主语
）
这些词组有not
only...but
also...,
either...or...,
neither...nor...等。
there
be

There
is
a
book
and
some
pencils
on
the

=There

some
pencils
and
a
book
on
the
desk.
类似的还有here 和
This
is
a
man
and

2.neither...nor...

Neither
you

a
holiday.

【主谓一致现象
】
有一类连接词，其后的谓语动词要与连接词前一部分的主语保持一致。此类连接词有with,
along
with,
together
with,
as
well
as,
besides,
like,
without,
except
(but),
including等。例如：
Tracy,
like
many
girls,
loves
dancing.
特蕾西像很多女孩一样，喜欢跳舞。
All
the
students,
including
Tom,
are
leaving.
所有的学生，包括汤姆都走了。
No
one
except
(but)
me
knows
about
this
news.
除了我没有人知道这个消息。

Answer 2

有时候谓语动词的形式与主语并不一致，却与邻近它的名词一致，这种原则就叫就近原则。

Answer 3

比如说在使用there be句型的时候be动词是用单数还是复数就是用就近原则
例如：

There are 2 dogs and 1 cat in my house .
There is 1 cat and2 dogs in my house .
在这两个句子中一个用的是are, 一个是is ,但是表语成分都是复数。
所以这种句型用的就是就近原则，单数靠着there ，there后面就是用is，复数靠着there 后面
就用are 。因此be动词使用什么是看就近接的什么。本回答被网友采纳
