Lesson 101--One of, Two of .....


One of is followed by a plural noun, but a singular verb.

e.g.      One of my friends is here.
            One of the best things to do is watch movies on a big screen.

Two of and other expressions are also followed by a plural noun but a plural verb.

e.g.      Two of the best places to visit are the CN Tower and the ROM.
            Half of the people are here.
            Two thirds of the guests have arrived.
