some,any,no和every可以與thing,one,body構成代詞,這些代詞叫復合不定代詞。一般說來,some構成的復合不定代詞的用法與some的用法相同;any構成的復合不定代詞的用法與any的用法相同。例如:
Do you have anything to say? 你有話要說嗎?
Listen to me, boys and girls, I have something to tell you. 同學們,聽我說,我有一些事情要告訴你們。
Is there anybody in the room? 屋里有人嗎?
在運用復合不定代詞時,同學們還應注意以下幾點:
1.當形容詞修飾復合不定代詞時,形容詞必須放在復合不定代詞的后面。例如:
There is nothing wrong with your bike. Why not go there by bike?
你的自行車沒有毛病,為什么不騎自行車去那兒呢?
We need one more helper. Can you find anyone else?
我們還需要一個助手,你能再給我們找一個嗎?
2.something/somebody/someone可用于表示請求、建議或邀請的問句中;當問句表示期待一個肯定回答時,也可用something/someone/somebody。例如:
Would you like something to drink? 你要來點喝的東西嗎?
Why don’t you ask somebody to help you? 為什么不請人幫你呢?
3.復合不定代詞在句中作主語時,謂語動詞常用單數形式。例如:
Everything begins to grow in spring. 春天萬物開始生長。
Nobody knows his name. 沒有人知道他的名字。
4.當陳述句的主語是指人的復合不定代詞(everybody,anyone,nobody等)時,其反意疑問句的主語常用代詞they;當陳述句的主語是指物的復合不定代詞(anything,something,everything等)時,其反意疑問句的主語常用it。例如:
Everyone is here, aren’t they? 大家都來了,是嗎?
Everything is ready, isn’t it? 一切都準備好了,是嗎?
