A necklace is not _____ that I need most.A. anything B. somethingC. nothing D. everything【陷阱】此题容易误选A,机械地套用以下规则:something 用于肯定句,anything 用于否定句或疑问句。【分析】当然以上规则在通常情况下是有效的,但此句不属通常用法。此题的最佳答案应是B,something 在此的意思不是“某种东西”,而是指“那种东西”或“这种东西”,即心中最想要的那种东西(相当于 the thing)。同样地,下面几题的最佳答案也是 something,而不是 anything:(1) It’s not _____ that we want to talk about; let’s change the subject. A. anything B. somethingC. nothing D. everything(2) It’s not _____ I enjoy; I do it purely out of a sense of duty.A. anything B. somethingC. nothing D. everything(3) Self-control is not _____ that comes with your birth.A. anything B. somethingC. nothing D. everything(4) This is not _____ that would disturb me anyway.
