4. 是any not 还是 not any。按英语习惯,any 以及含有any的复合不定代词用于否定句时,它只能出现在否定词之后,而不能在否定词之前:

误:Any one doesn’t know how to do it.

正:No one knows how to do it. 任何人都不知道如何做它。

误:Anybody [Anyone] cannot do it.

正:Nobody [No one] can do it. 这事谁也干不了。

误:Anything cannot prevent me from going.

正:Nothing can prevent me from going. 什么也不能阻挡我去。

5. 不定代词与部分否定。不定代词all, both, every 等与 not 连用时构成部分否定;若        要表示完全否定,则需换用 none, neither, no one等。比较:

All of the students like the novel. 所有这些学生都喜欢这本小说。

Not all of the students like the novel. 并不是所有这些学生都喜欢这本小说。

All of the students don’t like the novel. 并不是所有这些学生都喜欢这本小说。

None of the students like the novel. 这些学生当中没有一个喜欢这本小说。

6. all, both, each 等用作同位语。若用作主语同位语,主语可以是名词或代词;若用作宾语等其他成分的同位语,则宾语等成分必须是人称代词,而不能是名词:

We have all read it. 我们都读过他。(all 修饰的主语是代词)

The villages have all been destroyed. 村庄都被毁了。(all 修饰的主语是名词)

They told us all to wait there. 他叫我们都在那儿等。(all 修饰的宾语是代词)

但不能说:They told the men all to wait there. (all 修饰的宾语是名词不是代词)

7. so little 与 such little的区别。用so little还是such little取决于little的意思:若表示数量方面的“少”,则用so little;若表示形状体积的“小”,则用such little:

He has so little time for reading. 他读书的时间少得可怜。

I’ve never seen such little boxes. 我从未见过那样小的盒子。

8. some 与 any的用法区别。一般说来,some 用于肯定句中,any 用于否定句和疑问句中。但是,在表示请求、邀请或征求意见的句子中,通常要用 some 而不用any:

Would you like some cake? 吃点蛋糕吗?

Why not buy some bread? 为什么不买些面包呢?

Shall I get some chalk for you? 要我帮你拿些粉笔来吗?

注:any 有时也用于肯定句中,此时表示“任何”:

Any colour will do. 任何颜色都行。

Come any day you like. 随便哪天来都可以。

9. many 与 much的用法区别。两者都表示“许多”,但 many 修饰或代替可数名词(复数),与 few(少数)相对;而 much 用来修饰或代替不可数名词(单数),与little(少量)相对。在口语中两者主要用于非肯定句中:

Did you see many people there? 你在那儿看见许多人了吗?

We don’t have much time. 我们没有许多时间。

在肯定句中,一般用 a lot of, lots of, plenty of 等代之。但在正式文体中有时也用于肯定句中;另外,若用作主语或主语的定语,或其前有 how, too, as, so, a good, a great 等修饰,也可用于肯定句中:

Many of us left early. 我们有许多人离开得很早。

Much work has been done. 许多工作都已经做了。

You’ve given me too much. 你已给我太多了。

Take as many (much) as you want. 你要多少拿多少。

I asked her a great many questions. 我问了她许多问题。

10. few, a few 与 little, a little的用法区别。

(1) few和a few 后接可数名词的复数形式。few 表示数量很少或几乎没有,强调“少”,含有否定意义;a few 表示数量虽然少但毕竟还有,强调“有”,含有肯定意义:

It is very difficult, and few people understand it. 它很难,没有几个人能懂。

It is very difficult, but a few people understand it. 他虽难,但是有些人懂。

(2) little 和 a little 之后接不可数名词,其区别跟 few 和 a few 之间的区别相似:

Unfortunately, I had little money on me. 很不巧,我身上没带什么钱。

Fortunately, I had a little money on me.  幸好我身上带着一点钱。

11. other, the other, another与others的用法区别:这些不定代词不仅在含义上有单复数之分,而且在用法上有泛指(无the)和特指(有the)之别。其用法区别可归纳如下:

(1) 指单数时,若泛指用another,若特指用 the other:

Give me another (one). 另外给我一个。

Shut the other eye, please. 请把另一只眼睛也闭上。
