问题 Which of the following sentences is grammatically INCORRECT?

选项 A、Although his many examples were all right, the remainder were not quite exact.
B、Whisky and soda is my favourite drink.
C、Ballistics is the study of the motion of projectiles.
D、Shingles are serious; how long has he got it?

答案D

解析 主谓一致。当名词词组中心词是all,most,half或者是the rest,the remainder等,其主谓一致关系一般遵循意义一致的原则,A项所指为复数意义,故动词用复数形式,语法正确。当并列主语指一个东西时,根据意义一致的原则采用单数形式的谓语动词;whisky and soda指由威士忌和苏打水合成的一种饮料,故B项中动词使用单数形式。英语中这类合成食品的名称很多,如toast and wine(在葡萄酒中浸过的面包),strawberry and cream(上面涂有奶油的草莓),salt and water(盐开水)等。C项主语表示“弹道学”,虽然是-s结尾,但是为表示学科的名词,谓语动词使用单数形式。D项主语表示“带状疱疹”,是以一s结尾的表示疾病的名词,谓语动词应该使用单数形式,故此句语法错误。
