either of谓语动词用单数还是复数

问题描述

精选答案

单数。

either of的意思是：任何一个。例句：You may take either of the roads.两条路你随便走哪一条。either of表示“两者之一”，其后谓语动词用either在句中作主语或宾语，表示单数概念，作主语时谓语动词一般用单数形式，但在否定句中常用复数形式。例句Does either of the parties want to stop the fighting 双方中没有一方想停止战斗吗？She drove away before either of them could speak again没等他俩中任何一人再开口，她就驾车而去。Do either of you smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol 你们俩有人吸烟或喝酒吗？Mary was a better rider than either of them and she excelled at outdoor sports玛丽的骑术比他们俩都要好，而且她擅长户外运动。
