有同学问∶ everyone 与every one 有什么不同之处?
everyone 指 "每人,人人"(everybody),常指较为熟悉者,其后不可接 of 短语,如∶
(1) In here everyone is a comrade.(这里的每个人都是伙伴。)
(2)Have you told everyone about it?(你已经把这件事告诉大家了么?)
有时概括性很强,如∶
(3) Everyone says so.(大家都这么说。)
(4) Everyone is liable to err. (大家都容易犯错。)
every one 不但可指人,也可指物,如∶
(5) Every one loves his mother.(every one 指人)
(6) He took every one.(every one 可指物)
every one 之后常接 of 短语,如∶
(7)Every one of us knows that even the most carefully devised systems are not proof against errors.
(8) I tried every one of them.
every one 比较强调个别性,常重读 one,除上述例(5)和例(7)外,再举一更为典型的例证如下∶
(9) They were killed, every one of them.
