1.all在表示抽象的整体概念时,作单数,相当于everything,后加动词三单,例:All was destroyed in the big fire
all指人时用复数,意为三者或三者以上的“全部”“全体”,相当于everyone(每个),后加动词原形,例:
All are present.
all在人称代词前面,只能用all of,而且要与人称代词的宾格us,you,them等连用,如:all of us,而不能说all us
every用于三个或三个以上的人或物,是每一个的意思,只能作定语,强调整体概念,例:Every player in present.
在表示每个、全体的意思时,every与all意思接近,但一般情况下every和单数名词搭配,all和复数名词搭配,例:Every child enjoys Chritmas.
All children enjoy Christmas.
2.anything 可以用在问句里.nothing 不可以.例子:Did you do anything today?
在陈述句里,两个都可以用,但是用法有区别.据英文语法,不可以用双重否定,所以有这些句型:
-- 动词否定式 + anything
-- 动词肯定式 + nothing (nothing 是否定的词语,所以必须用动词肯定式)
给你一些例子:
I didn't do anything today.
He's so lazy.He did nothing at work all day.
而且,我们说 “nothing“ 时,就强调 ”没有任何物品/事情“的意思.比如
Did you do anything today?回答:
I did NOTHING today!“什么都没有做啦!"
