由以上各題可以看出,近幾年高考在代詞考查方面,none,no one和nothing可謂是考查的重點(diǎn),然而,學(xué)生對(duì)這三個(gè)詞的掌握卻不是很扎實(shí)。經(jīng)常有很多學(xué)生將這三個(gè)詞混在一起,難以分辨,以至于在單選,寫(xiě)作等實(shí)際運(yùn)用當(dāng)中出現(xiàn)不應(yīng)有的錯(cuò)誤,下面我就如何區(qū)分三個(gè)詞談?wù)勎业目捶ā?/p>

1. none?！皼](méi)有一個(gè)人(或物)”,用來(lái)指代三者或三者以上的人或事物,常與of 短語(yǔ)連用,后接可數(shù)或不可數(shù)名詞;代替上文中提到的特定的數(shù)量,在簡(jiǎn)略答語(yǔ)中回答How many/How much引起的問(wèn)句。例:

“How many students are there in the classroom?” “None.” “教室里有多少個(gè)學(xué)生?” “一個(gè)學(xué)生也沒(méi)有?！?/p>

2. no one(nobody)“沒(méi)有人”,只能指人,不能指物,不能與of短語(yǔ)連用,用作單數(shù),表示泛指概念。在簡(jiǎn)略答語(yǔ)中用來(lái)回答who引導(dǎo)的問(wèn)句。

例:“Who is in the dining-room now?” “No one/Nobody.” “現(xiàn)在誰(shuí)在餐廳里?” “沒(méi)有人?！?/p>

3. nothing“沒(méi)有什么,什么也沒(méi)有”,只能指物,不與of 短語(yǔ)連用,只泛指“沒(méi)有什么事情或東西”,用作單數(shù);在簡(jiǎn)略答語(yǔ)中用來(lái)回答what引導(dǎo)的問(wèn)句。

例:“What have you bought?” “Nothing.” “你買(mǎi)了點(diǎn)什么?” “什么也沒(méi)買(mǎi)。”
