答案与解析：
1. A。集体名词 family, team, class, army, enemy, group 等作主语时，如强调整体，谓语动词用单数形式；如强调一个个的成员，谓语动词用复数形式。
2. B。当population单独作主语时谓语动词用单数；若前面有具体数字修饰时谓语动词用复数。如：Eighty percent of the population of this village are farmers. 这个村子百分之八十的人口是农民。
3. B。句意为“他很生气，因为除他以外的所有人都被邀请参加那次聚会”。当主语后面带有except等词时，谓语动词与主语一致。Everyone作主语时谓语动词用单数。
4. C。not you 是附加成分，因而you不作主语，He是主语，故第一空用was; not … but…是成对的并列连词，连接两个主语时，用“邻近一致”原则处理谓语形式，you邻近谓语，故用 have。
5. C。means 作“方法”解且前面被every修饰，表单数概念，故第一空用has；第二空用try to persuade 表示尽力说服某人，含有说服不了人的可能，切合题意。此题易误选D，以为是 be used to doing sth结构。其实used 为实义动词，意为“使用、采用”，后面的to为不定式符号，引出目的状语。
6. B。此题容易错选A，而实际上，此题的正确答案是B。本题考查主谓一致。由题意可知应用被动语态，排除C、D两项。当as well as / together with / besides / rather than / including / but等连接两个名词或代词做主语时，谓语动词应与前面的名词或代词在人称和数上保持一致。
7. D。the number of 修饰可数名词复数作主语时，后面的谓语动词用单数形式；There be 必须与后面的主语在人称和数上保持一致。Tickets 为复数名词，因此用were；故答案为 D。
8. C。当A as well as B用作主语，谓语动词习惯上与A保指一致。另外，根据句意，此处应用一般现在时，而不宜用一般将来时，故选C。
9. D。one-third为one-third of the 20 notebook computers之省略，表示复数意义，故谓语动词要用复数。
10. C。the number of…的意思是“……的数量”，用作主语时，谓语动词要用单数，又如：The number of cars has greatly in creased. 轿车的数量大大地增加了。注意：若是a number of…用作主语，则谓语动词要用复数，如：A number of workers have recently left the company. 最近有很多工人辞掉了工作。
11. B。what has been said about the Smiths为单数，所以most of what has been said about the Smiths也应为单数。
12. B。第一空用单数，因为主语是a survey，而不是experts; 第二空也用单数，是因为像three hours这样的表示时间或金钱的复数名词通常被视为整体，视为单数。
