One of +复数名词，谓语动词不是应该用单数

 

但是until a merger agreement be/is signed

为什么用is不对，从句用一般现在时才对阿？难道是跟be expected有关？

上面打错了，应该用单数，

 c没有错，应该用is。

One of 后＋谓语动词（Vt)单数还是复数要根据如下情况:

one of + 名词复数＋Vt单数－－－－－－－－－Vt动作的发出者是one，当然是单数

one of + 名词复数+ that+Vt复数－－－－－－－这个Vt动作的发出者是that，that就近修饰名词复数，故Vt是单数格式

the only one of + 名词复数＋that＋Vt单数－－－这个Vt动作的发出者是that, that 修饰 the only one，是单数，故Vt是单数格式
