问题 Which of the following sentences is INCORRECT?
选项 A、Fire and water do not agree.
B、Each minute and each second are valuable.
C、Bread and butter is a nutritious food for patients.
D、The scholar and poet is dead.
答案B
解析 考查主谓一致。and连接两个单数名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词一般用复数形式；但and连接两个作主语的单数名词指同一人、同一物或同一概念时，谓语动词用单数形式。如：Theteacher and writer is a very wise man．这里The teacher and writer是指同一个人，即既是老师也是作家。若要指两个人时，writer前面必须加冠词the。A、C、D表述均正确，A项指两个事物，故用复数形式；C项的bread and butter是指一种食物“奶油面包”，相当于buttered bread，故用单数。D项The scholar and poet指同一个人，故用单数。B不正确，原因在于and连接的两个主语之前有each，every，no many a(n)时，谓语动词只能用单数形式，如No sound and(no)voice isheard．万籁俱寂。
