Question

more than 作主语，谓语动词单复数怎么用

Answer 1

语法就是这么规定的：
由more
than
one
(或more
than
one
+
单数名词),many
a
+
单数名词作主语,谓语动词要用单数形式.例如：
1）More
than
one
student
has
passed
the
examination.
2）Many
a
boy
learns
to
swim
before
he
can
read.
注：如果more
than后面是复数名词,则谓语动词要用复数.
more
+
复名+
than
one
"接复数谓语.e.g.
②More
students
than
one
have
been
there
.不止一个学生去过那儿.
