当我们需要表达“所有”,“任何”,“无论哪一个”,“没有一个”或“两个都是”的时候,我们所使用的词汇,会根据范围“两者”还是“三者”,使用的词汇是不一样的,就类似于比较级与最高级的语法,所使用的结构也是不一样。同时,当这些词作主语时,我们还需要关注单复数的问题。
”两者“
Both (两个都):这个词用于表示两个事物或人都具有某个特点或执行某个行动。例如:
Both of my parents are doctors.(我的父母双方都是医生。)
I bought both the blue shirt and the red shirt.(我买了蓝色和红色两件衬衫。)
Either (任何一个):这个词用于表示在两个选择中的任何一个都可以选择。例如:
You can take either the train or the bus to get to the city.(你可以坐火车或公交车去市区。)
You can have either a salad or a sandwich for lunch.(你可以选择沙拉或三明治作为午餐。)
Neither (没有一个):这个词用于表示在两个事物或选择中都没有一个满足条件。例如:
Neither of us speaks Spanish.(我们两个人都不会说西班牙语。)
Neither of the options is ideal, but we have to choose one.(这两个选项都不是理想的,但我们必须选择一个。)
”三者或以上“
All (所有的):这个词用于表示所有事物或人都具有某个特点或执行某个行动。例如:
All of the students passed the exam.(所有学生都通过了考试。)
I ate all of the pizza by myself.(我独自吃了整个披萨。)
Any (任何一个):这个词用于表示在多个选择中的任何一个都可以选择。例如:
You can borrow any book from the library.(你可以从图书馆借任何一本书。)
Any of the restaurants in the area would be a good choice for dinner.(这个地区的任何餐厅都是晚餐的好选择。)
None (没有一个):这个词用于表示没有任何一个事物或人具有某个特点或执行某个行动。例如:
None of the students were absent today.(今天没有学生缺席。)
I have none of the qualifications for that job.(我没有那份工作的任何资格。)
总之,以上这些单词可以帮助我们更准确地表达数量、选择和否定等概念。在使用它们的时候,需要注意上下文和语境。
