someone, anyone, everyone, no one
我经常遇到不定代词 someone、anyone、everyone 及 no one 误用的情形。关于其用法必须注意的重点是:这些代词只可用于指代人 1。 下面,我将举出误用的典型例子及其正确用法。
- Someone of these methods could be useful.
- You may take anyone of the books.
- He worried about everyone of the possible complications.
- Their theory applies to no one of these examples.
- One of these methods could be useful.
- You may take any one of the books.
- He worried about every one of the possible complications.
- Their theory applies to none of these examples.
1 它们有时被用于指代动物,但这种用法相当奇怪。
