Question

Nobody but helen and peter ( )working in the lab yesterday.
A are B is C were D was
说明理由。

Answer 1

C错，正确答案选D
是语法中的主谓一致：若“主语+附属结构”作主语，则应遵循“取远原则”
nobody是不定代词，又因yesterday,所以用was
除了but，类似的词还有with,along with ,together with, like,unlike,besides, in addition to,expect,including,as well as,as much as,rather than 等

前面几人选了C是错的，就近原则只对于主语由not only......but also，or,either ......or neither....nor等连接的句子适用

Answer 2

D nobody 后带有but 短语，主谓一致采取就远原则，与nobody保持一致。本回答被提问者采纳

Answer 3

C
引导的并列主语根据最接近谓语的名词的数来确定其后动词的数，
这就是主谓一致问题中的“就近原则”
就近原则还适用于：either……or
neither……nor
there be结构
如：there is a desk, two chairs and some books in the room.
there are some books, a desk and a chair in the room

Answer 4

C，就近原则，按helen and peter 填动词形式。

Answer 5

C
