一、就近原则：也称“邻近原则”“就近一致原则”，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。与其相对的还有“就远原则”
1、在here, there等引导的倒装句中, 当主语不止一个，此时谓语动词与最靠近它的主语在数上一致喔。
例：
Here comes the bus. 巴士过来了。
There is a pencil and several photos on the desk. 桌上有一支铅笔和几张图片。
2、连词or, either... or..., neither…nor..., not only…but also 等连接的并列主语, 谓语动词只与靠近它的主语在数上一致哈。
例：
Either you or he knows something about the task. 要么你，要么他知道此任务的相关情况。
Neither I nor he plays cards.我和他都没打牌.
二、就远原则
当用作主语的成分后面跟有由but, except, besides, including, like, with, as well as, as much as, no less than, along with, in addition to, combined with, rather than, together with等引出的短语时，谓语动词习惯上要与这些结构前面的主语保持一致（即与比较远的那个主语保持一致）。
例：
She,as well as the other students in the classroom, is jumping with joy.她和教室里其他学生一样开心地跳起来。
Michael Jordan,together with his teammates, has set a record in NBA. 迈克尔乔丹和他的队友们，已经一起创造了NBA的一个记录。
