不定代詞是高考的常考考點(diǎn),有的不定代詞考題出得比較靈活,不能死套規(guī)則,要注意結(jié)合語(yǔ)境來(lái)理解。如:
(1) “Is ____ here?” “No, Bob and Tim have asked for leave.”
A. anybody
B. everybody
C. somebody
D. nobody
若只是從表面來(lái)看,填空句是個(gè)疑問(wèn)句,可能會(huì)誤選A。但其實(shí)此題答案應(yīng)選B,因?yàn)橄挛牡拇鹁湔f(shuō)“只有Bob和Tim請(qǐng)假了”,這說(shuō)明問(wèn)句是在查人數(shù),故用 Is everybody here? (大家都到齊了嗎?)
(2) I agree with most of what you said, but I don’t agree with _____.
A. everything
B. anything
C. something
D. nothing
此句若從表面看,有可能誤選B,因?yàn)樘羁站錇榉穸ň?。但?shí)際上答案為A,因?yàn)樯衔恼f(shuō)“我同意他說(shuō)的大部分內(nèi)容”,這與下文的 but I don’t agree with everything(但并不是同意他說(shuō)的所有內(nèi)容)完全相符。
(3) “Do you have _____ at home now, Mary?” “No, we still have to get some fruit and tea.”
A. something
B. anything
C. everything
D. nothing
答案選C,句意為“瑪麗,現(xiàn)在家里東西都準(zhǔn)備齊了嗎?”“還沒(méi)有,我們還要買(mǎi)些水果和茶。”
(4) “If you want a necklace, I’ll buy one for you at once.” “Oh, no. A necklace is not _____ that I need most.
A. anything
B. something
C. nothing
D. everything
此題容易誤選A,機(jī)械地認(rèn)為:something 用于肯定句,anything 用于否定句或疑問(wèn)句。但是,此題的答案是B,something 在此的意思不是“某種東西”,而是指“那種東西”或“這種東西”,即心中最想要的那種東西(相當(dāng)于 the thing)。
