代词是中学英语学习中一个重要的语法知识点,在历届高考试题中均有出现,而学生在使用过程中常常因区分不开或者句意理解偏差而导致错误。现将这些易考易错点归纳如下。
一、one/ones,it/them ,that/those的区别
1.The employment rate has continued to rise in big cities thanks to the efforts of the local governments to increase __________.(北京,2011)
A.them B.those C.it D.that
2.We have various summer camps for your holidays. You can choose__________ based on your own interests.(福建,2011)
A.either B.each C.one D.it
解析:
1【答案】C。it特指the employment rate。
2【答案】C。one =a summer camp。
it特指上文中同名同物的单数名词或不可数名词,其复数形式是them/they;
one泛指上文中同名不同物的单数名词,其复数形式是ones;
that指上文中同名不同物的单数名词或不可数名词,其复数形式是those=the ones。
二、it用法
1.Why don’t you bring to his attention that you’re too ill to work on? (江西,2011)
A.that B.it C.this D.him
2.—I’ve read another book this week.(浙江,2009)
—Well,maybe __________ is not how much you read but what you read that counts.
A.this B.that C.thereD.it
解析:
1【答案】B。it作形式宾语,真正宾语是后面的that从句。
2【答案】D。强调句型It is/was + 被强调部分 + that/who ... 。
三、something /nothing/anything /everything /no特殊用法
1.Since people are fond of humor,it is as well in conversation as __________ else. (浙江,2011)
A.anything B.something
C.anywhere D.somewhere
2.There is __________ called Liming in our class.
A.no such a person B.no such person
C.not such one person D.not such person
解析:
1【答案】A。还原整句it is as well in conversation as (it is in anything)else。
2【答案】B。no /one +such+名词(名词前不用冠词); 与a连用时,a放在such后。
注:①Don’t think yourself to be a somebody(重要人物). In fact,you are a nobody(小人物).
②I got this bicycle for nothing;My friend gave it to me when she bought a new one. (免费的)
③There is something in his words. We should have a try. (有些道理)
④I spent the whole day repairing the motorbike. The work was anything but simple. (一点也不)
⑤I agree with most of what you said,but I don’t agree with everything.( not...everything是部分否定)
四、either /neither/ both/ none
1.He had lost his temper and his health in the war and never found __________ of them again.(重庆,2010)
A.neither B.either C.each D.all
2.I haven’t read __________ of his books,but judging from the one I have read I think he’s a very promising writer.
A.any B.none C.both D.either
解析:
1.【答案】B。not/never... either等于neither。
2.【答案】C。根据句子后半部分“我已经读了其中的一本”,not...both表示“部分否定”。
五、none /no one/nothing
1.—How much vinegar did you put in the soup?
—I’m sorry to say,__________ I forgot.
A.no B.no one C.nothing D.none
解析:
1.【答案】D。none指人或物.可与of 连用,回答how many/much问句。 no one仅指人,不可与of 连用。而nothing则指什么也没有。此题补全:I’m sorry to say that I didn’t put any vinegar in the soup,because I forgot it. 其中not... any = none。
六、another /the other/ others /the others
1.Neither side is prepared to talk to __________ unless we can smooth things over between them.(全国,2010)
A.others B.the other C.another D.one other
2.You are the team star! Working with __________ is really your cup of tea.(安徽,2010)
A.both B.either C.others D.the other
解析:
1.【答案】B。2.【答案】C。
the other指两个中的另一个; others是代词,相当于other+名词复数,泛指“别的人或事 ”(无特定范围); the others= the other+名词,表“(特定范围内) 其余的”。another指两个以上中不确定的一个。
注:①—Would you get me a bar of chocolate from the kitchen,dear?
—Another one?(another+数词=数词+more)
②Over the past 20 years,the Internet helped change our world in one way or another for the better.(以某种方式)
七、人称代词和反身代词

A.him B.his C.me D.mine
2. Surprisingly,Susan’s beautiful hair reached below her knees and made __________ almost an overcoat for her.(安徽,2011)
A.them B.her C.itself D.herself
解析:1【答案】C 。2【答案】C 。
注:①—I can’t believe he’s fifty. He looks so young.
—Me neither.(简略回答中代词多用宾格)
②反身代词固定短语:of oneself(自动地);by oneself(独自);for oneself(为自己);between themselves/ourselves(私下里);seat oneself(就座);dress oneself(穿衣服)。
八、连接代词who(m)ever/whatever/what
1.After __________ seemed like hours he came out with a bitter smile.
A.which B.it C.what D.that
2.Sarah hopes to become a friend of __________ shares her interests.
A.anyone B.whomever C.whoever D.no matter who
3.__________ the boy did never satisfied his stepmother.
A.However B.Whatever
C.No matter how D.No matter what
解析:
1【答案】C。what引导的是宾语从句,用作介词after的宾语。
2【答案】C。whoever 在此相当于 anyone who。whoever 既用作shares的主语,也用作介词of宾语。whomever只作宾语。而no matter who只有在让步状语从句中才等于whoever。
3【答案】B。whatever此处引导名词性从句,在句中作主语,不可与no matter what互换。只有在让步状语从句中no matter what和whatever才可以互换。
