No one except two girls was late for dinner.No one except his own supporters agree with him.

问题描述:

No one except two girls was late for dinner.No one except his own supporters agree with him.
都是语法书上的,一个是根据主语而定的谓语的例子,一个是就近原则的例子.

第二句是不对的.
主语后面跟有with, together with, except, but, like, as well as, no less than, rather than, more than, besides, along with, including, in addition to 等引起的短语, 谓语动词要跟主语一致,即就远一致.
Mr. Green, together with his wife and children, has come to China.
A woman with a baby was on the bus.
Nobody but Jim and Mike was on the playground.
She, like you and Tom, is very tall.
The girls as well as the boy have learned to speak Japanese.
No one except my teachers knows anything about it.谢谢你,不过这个句子是正确的,你说的就远原则我懂,但是第二句话,在是书上的例子还有2012英语专业四级真题中,语法和词汇题得第一题,答案说这句话是正确的。我还是信语法规则。元方你怎么看?
