问题
选择题
The man as well as his parents ____________ content with the dishes his wife cooks.
A．have
B．are
C．has
D．is
答案
答案：D
题目分析：句意：那个人与他的父母都对他的妻子做的菜很满意。as well as常用来连接两个并列的成分，作“也，还”解。它强调的是前一项，后一项只是顺便提及。因此连接并列主语时，谓语动词与前一项一致；the man是单数，故排除AB；这里是be content with对……满意，故选D。
点评：本题难度适中。主谓一致是高中阶段的重要的语法项目，它的各种情况比较多，需要考生牢记它的用法，这里同时又考查了一个短语。
即学即练：The number of people invited _____ fifty, but a number of them _____ absent for different reasons.
A.were; was B.was; were C.was; was D.were; were
解析：B。the number of+可数名词复数作主语，谓语动词用单数；而a number of+可数名词复数作主语，谓语动词用复数。
