l 用所给词的正确形式填空答案与解析：
1. have; is。表示时间、金钱、距离、重量的复数名词表示单位数量用作主语时， 通常看作整体，谓语动词用单数形式（第二空）; 若强调数目，谓语动词用复数形式（第一空）。
2. Is。不定代词anyone, anybody, anything, everyone, everybody, everything, someone, somebody, something, nobody, nothing等作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
3. is; are。集体名词family, class等作主语时，如果强调整体（第一空），谓语动词用单数形式；如果强调个体（第二空），则用复数形式。
4. are。
5. is。某些名词以-s结尾，表面看是复数形式，实际上是单数概念，如physics, news等，它们作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
6. is。当主语是不定式短语，-ing形式短语或主语从句时，谓语动词一般用单数形式。
7. is。一个单数名词同时被两个不同的形容词修饰，如果表示的是同一概念，谓语动词一般用单数。该句意为“最后一课十四课是最难的一课。”
8. am。
9. has。两个名词或代词由and连接作主语时，当and不表示并列意义，而连接两个在意义上表示同一人、物或概念或由两个部件配成的物品时，谓语动词用单数。
10. was。主语后面接说明主语的修饰语，如用with，along with， as well as, like, rather than, but, except, besides, including等与修饰语连接，谓语动词不受修饰成分的影响，仍保持同主语一致的关系。
11. has。两个并列的名词由each，every， no等修饰时，谓语动词一般用单数。
12. Is; am。当用作主语的两个名词或代词由or， either ... or, neither ... nor或 not only ... but also等连接时，谓语通常与邻近的名词或代词保持一致。
13. are。一个单数名词同时被两个不同的形容词修饰，表示两个不同的概念时，谓语动词一般用复数。
14. has。“many a + 单数名词”作主语时，表达的是复数意义，但谓语动词要用单数。
15. are。“the+形容词 / 过去分词”表示一类人时，谓语动词用复数。
l 改错[解析与拓展]
1. 第二个is改为are。定语从句中谓语动词的人称和数应与先行词保持一致。本句中先行词是girls，而不是one，因此谓语动词用复数。
2. are改为is。本句中who引导的是一个定语从句，先行词是one，而不是members，因此谓语动词用单数。
3. was改为were。本句的主语是what引导的名词性从句，what引导主语从句时，谓语动词的数取决于对what所代表数的理解，常与其后的名词一致。
4. are改为is或and后加the。当主语由and连接时，如果它指同一人或物时，and连接的两个词前只有一个冠词，谓语动词用单数；如果and连接的两个名词前有两个冠词，谓语动词用复数。
5. are改为is。当主语后面跟有with, together with, like, except, but, as well as 等引起的短语时，谓语动词的数与主语保持一致。
6. is改为are。“a number of + 名词复数”后的谓语动词用复数；“the number of + 名词复数”后的谓语动词用单数。
7. are改为is。英语中以“?鄄s”结尾的学科名词作主语时，谓语动词用单数。
8. have改为has。用many a或more than one修饰的单数名词作主语时，谓语动词用单数形式。
9. are 改为is。主语是what 引导的主语从句，因此谓语动词要用单数形式。
10. are 改为is。该剧是一个倒装句，主语是a castle，为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词要用单数。
11. 应把is改为are。因为主语是difficulties，谓语动词应保持一致，为复数形式。
12.本句为倒装句，主语是hundreds of billboards为复数形式，谓语动词应保持一致，改为复数形式were。
13.应改promote为promotes。此句是强调句型，真正的主语是communication，遵循语法一致原则，谓语动词与主语保持一致，为单数形式。
