1、复合不定代词的用法,一、用法说明: 这类不定代词有everything(一切事,最重要的事), everyone =everybody (每个人,所有人); something(某事,重要的人或事物), someone =somebody(某 / 有人,重要的人); anything(什么事物,任何事物,无论什么事物), anyone =anybody(任何人,无论谁,重要的人); nothing(没有东西,什么也没有,不重要的人或事)no one=nobody(没有人,不重要的人)等。它们还与别有词构成很多习语,如for nothing(徒劳,免费),nothing but(仅仅,只不过),
2、Its nothing. (不用谢,不必在意),anybody else(别人)等等。如:别人,1. Is _ here? No, Bob and Tim have asked for leave. (全国卷) A. anybody B. somebody C. everybody D. nobody 【分析】答案选C。由答语可知问的是“到齐了吗?”所以用everybody。请比较:Is anybody here? 这里有人吗?(房间里有人没?),2. One weeks time has been wasted. I cant believe we did all that work for
3、 _. (重庆卷) A. something B. nothing C. everything D. anything 【分析】答案选B。for nothing是习语,意为“徒劳,没有好结果”“免费”。,二、考点注意使用时,还需注意以下7点: 作主语时,谓语动词用单数。代替与-thing构成的复合不定代词,用it;代替与-body, -one构成的复合不定代词,一般用they,在正式文体中可用he。如:Everyone knows what they have / he has to do, dont they / doesnt he? 每个人都知道他必须做什么,不是吗?每个人都知道他必须做什
4、么,不是吗?修饰它们的形容词或不定式一定要位于它们的后面,如:This is something special. 这是种特别的东西。Havent you got anything to do? 你无事可干吗?,除与-thing构成的复合不定代词外,都有所有格形式;当其后有else时,s 要加在else后面。如:Grammar isnt everybodys idea of fun. 语法不是每个人都认为兴趣的。That must be somebody elses coat; it isnt mine. 那一定是别人的外衣,不是我的。 everyone = everybody, anyone
5、 = anybody, 只指人,不能与of短语连用;every one, any one可指人也可指物,一定要与of连用才可以。如:Is anybody here? 有人吗?You can take any one of these. 你可以随便拿一个。,与some-,any-构成的复合不定代词的用法与some, any的用法相同。与any-构成的复合不定代词一般用于否定句或疑问句中,notany-构成完全否定,但没有any-not的说法;与some-构成的复合不定代词用于肯定句、预料作肯定回答的疑问句、建议或请求的疑问句中。something某事,一般用于肯定句。与no-构成的复合不定代词本
6、身就是否定意义,所以一定要与肯定的动词连用。not与由every-构成的复合不定代词是部分否定。,如:1. She doesnt know anyone here. She has got _ to talk to.(广东卷) A. anyone B. someone C. everyone D. no one 【分析】答案选D。no one = nobody = notany one没有一个人。由前句句意可知她在这一个人都不认识,所以她找不到人可以说话。,2. I agree with most of what you said, but I dont agree with _. (全国卷)
7、 A. everything B. anything C. something D. nothing 【分析】答案选A。句意为:我赞同你说的大部分话,但是我不同意 ? 。noteverything是否定,意为“我并非同意你讲的一切”,与前一分句意思相符。而notanything=nothing,意为“我没有什么反对的”,与前一分句意思矛盾。所以选A。,3. I will never know what was on his mind at the time, nor will _. (江苏卷) A. anyone B. anyone else C. no one D. no one else
8、【分析】答案选B。句意为:我不知道他当时怎么想的,_.nor表示后者与前者“一样不”,nor本身是否定的,所以后面要用肯定的,排除C和D;又因为要把我排除在外,应用else,排除“A”,所以选B。,一、something 1. something 不简单的事,可观的成绩,有些地位的人 At least we didnt lose any money. Thats something.
