主谓一致知识点主语是合成词（alargeamount）

amount用作名词时，意为“数量”“总额”等，通常用于 a (great, large) amount of 这类结构，表示“大量”“许多”，其后通常接不可数名词。（quantity用法基本相似）如：

An increasing amount of organic produce is to be found on supermarket shelves. 越来越多的有机产品出现在超市货架上。

这类结构用作主语，其谓语的数取决于 amount 的数。如：

正：A large amount of money was spent on the bridge.

正：Large amounts of money were spent on the bridge.
