主詞若含有 or, nor, either ~ or, neither ~ nor, not only ~ but (also) 的時候，動詞要和比較接近動詞的主詞一致。

Neither you, nor I , nor anyone else knows the answer.

你和他應該因這場意外被指責。
She, not you, is to blame. 她,而不是你該被指責
The group of students is going to Taipei tomorrow.
那一組學生明天將去台北。
這裡句子的主詞是 group (不是 students) 所以要用單數動詞 is這裡 group 是個集合名詞，如果該集合名詞是當整體看，用單數動詞。如果該集合名詞是意指一群個體，用複數動詞。
比較上句 "The group of" 與下句 "A group of"

一群學生想成為醫生。
這裡"A group of"是個限定詞，"A group of students"是個名詞片語，作為句子的主詞；因為是複數，所以要用複數動詞 are。
And 連接兩個名詞(片語)或名詞子句作主詞時:
1.若指相同的人、事物或觀念時，使用單數名詞

2.若指不同的人、事物或觀念時，要用複數名詞
