以下是引用niuroumian在2008/3/21 22:18:00的发言：

谓语肯定要跟着主语了，主语是a phenonmenon, 谓语当然是is 了，waves of  ******是一种情况，而不是很多浪花，没有矛盾。

不过NN说的all the students each have a dream ,感到奇怪， 这句话本身就是错误的吧，all the students each has a dream 。 ？

求解

主谓一致中，复数名词/复数代词+EACH +VERB,谓语动词用复数。

这个白勇的书里P50页有写。

A new phenomena, which is visible at Managua’s major intersections, are waves of vendors and beggars, which include many children and mob cars at the stoplights.

(A) A new phenomena, which is visible at Managua’s major intersections, are waves of vendors and beggars, which include many children and
(B) Visible at Managua’s major intersections are waves of vendors and beggars with many children, new phenomena that
(C) A new phenomenon visible at Managua’s major intersections is waves of vendors and beggars, many of them children, who
(D) Phenomenally new waves of vendors, beggars, and many children are visible at Managua’s major intersections, which
(E) A wave of vendors and beggars, many of whom are children, are visible at Managua’s major intersections, where they are a new phenomenon and

Correct answer: C
I know the mistakes in the other choices. but why C is right since " A new phenomenon visible...is waves of.....

Why "is" plus plural "waves".

Thank you!

几个问题明确一下

1、vendor 这里应该是小贩，和beggar 形成并列关系。

2、主谓一致即可，同位语和谓语，谓语和宾语未必要保持一致，前面一位NN的例子： all the students each have a bright future,举的很好。

     这里主语是  a phenomenon,谓语应该是单数

3、(C) A new phenomenon 【visible at Managua’s major intersections】 is 【waves of vendors and beggars,（ many of them children,） who mob cars at the stoplights】

正确的句子应该是这个。

我的理解是：

 a new phenomenon is waves:句子主干

【visible at Managua’s major intersections】:形容词短语后置修饰主语

,（ many of them children,） ：插入语，补充说明 vendors and beggars

【vendors and beggars  who mob cars at the stoplights】：WAVE的同位语，解释说明WAVE的，。

请高手指正。

顺便提个问题:

one of them children

one of whom are children

one of whom children

三者什么区别？

cindyg

vendor 在这里指的不是街上的小贩吗？

genimix

A new phenomenon visible at Managua’s major intersections is waves of vendors and beggars, many of them children, who mob cars at the stoplights

主干：A new phenomenon is waves of vendors and beggars
         很多人认为单数的phenomenon与复数的waves单复数不一致，但请注意phenomenon是抽象名词，描述   一种现象，因此不要求主宾的单复数一致。

后置定语：visible at Managua’s major intersections 修饰phenomenon

宾语：waves of vendors and beggars：“waves of 小贩和乞丐”。大家在中国也应该看见过类似情况，很多卖报纸的小贩和乞丐不都是在那种红绿灯比较长的十字路口拦车卖报和乞讨吗？

many of them children：独立主格结构作插入定语修饰vendors and beggars，请注意独立主格结构只能作状语或定语，没有做同位语一说。

who mob cars at the stoplights，定语从句修饰vendors and beggars

大家应该明白了吧

逆时桢

主谓一致，不需要系表一致的吧

costan

who 修饰的是beggars, 不是vendors
vendor是自动售卖机，就是路边那个大箱子，都见过吧。
还有，关于wave作为名词的解释是
n 1: one of a series of ridges that moves across the surface of a liquid (especially across a large body of water) [syn: moving ridge]
2: a movement like that of an ocean wave; "a wave of settlers"; "troops advancing in waves"
3: (physics) a movement up and down or back and forth [syn: undulation]
4: something that rises rapidly; "a wave of emotion swept over him"; "there was a sudden wave of buying before the market closed"; "a wave of conservatism in the country led by the hard right" ---这句中，显然是这个意思。
5: the act of signaling by a movement of the hand [syn: waving, wafture]
6: a hairdo that creates undulations in the hair
7: an undulating curve [syn: undulation]
8: a persistent and widespread unusual weather condition (especially of unusual temperatures)
9: a member of the women's reserve of the United States Navy; originally organized during World War II but now no longer a separate branch [syn: Wave]

为什么vendor 不是小贩.小贩和乞丐成群,把自动售货机和乞丐放在一起,不是这个本意吧?
