标题: 20percent of+ 不可数名词1 and 不可数名词2+ be

这边的谓语应该是单数还是复数啊~

In my opinion:

1. X percent of n.: n. is the decisive factor in the agreement of subject and predicate.

a) n. singular -> v. singular

b) n. plural -> v. plural

2. n1. and n2.:

a) whatever none or only one or both of n1. and n2. are singular, as long as the two words present different things -> v. plural

b) both n1. and n2. are in singular forms and the two words present only one combined thing -> v. singular

eg: Bread and butter is my favorite. (Bread and butter is one kind of combined food.)

To be discussed.
