主语后面有时跟有of或其他介词时,动词仍和主语一致:One of the boys is sick.

后面跟复数动词的短语有:a majority of people,a variety ofreasons,a rain of bullets,a storm of stones,a flood of re-sources,a sea of faces,a trickle of tourists,a mountain ofwatermelons等等。
系动词一般都和前面的主语一致,而不受后面补语的影响:My only pleasure is the movies.

不定式、动名词或从句作主语时,尽管里面有复数名词,动词仍用单数形式:
