Usagenote:1.everyone,everyone1everyone指“某一組人中的每一個(gè)人”，強(qiáng)調(diào)everysingleperson，而everyone表示“每人”，含有“整體；全體”的意義。例如：Sheturnedherattentiontoherfriends.Everyonehadhadagoodeducation.她把注意力轉(zhuǎn)到她的朋友們身上。他們中的每一個(gè)人都受過(guò)良好的教育。Hehasfivechildrenandeveryoneisgoodatpainting.他有五個(gè)孩子，他們個(gè)個(gè)都擅長(zhǎng)畫畫。Everyonehadtherighttovote.人人都有投票權(quán)。2.everyone可以用于表示“每一件（樣）東西”；而everyone不能用于此意。例如：Shedustedthebooksandputeveryonebackinitsplace.

她把書上的灰撣掉，再把每本書都放回原處。I’velookedatsixhousessofarandfoundsomethingwrongwitheveryoneofthem.我已經(jīng)看過(guò)六處房子了，發(fā)現(xiàn)每一幢房子都有問(wèn)題。3.everyone只能用于指人，不能指物。everyone用作主語(yǔ)時(shí)，其謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。例如：Everyonewantstofindoutwhatisgoingon.每個(gè)人都想弄清楚發(fā)生了什么事。Everyonehadtherighttovote.人人都有投票權(quán)。（強(qiáng)調(diào)“人人”，“每人都…”）4.現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中，與everyone/everybody對(duì)應(yīng)的主格、賓格和所有格代詞通常用they,them和their。例如：Everyoneshoulddowhattheycantopreventviolence.每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該盡其所能制止暴力。Everybodyhadtobringtheirownlaptops.每個(gè)人都得自帶電腦。

有些大學(xué)甚至要求所有學(xué)生擁有或租用一臺(tái)手提電腦。有人說(shuō)注重技術(shù)可以使學(xué)生作好準(zhǔn)備面對(duì)被網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接的世界。一位大學(xué)校長(zhǎng)指出：“你必須與世界保持同步，學(xué)生們期望通過(guò)高帶寬獲取信息。如果你不能提供，你就會(huì)在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)中處于劣勢(shì)?！?/p>

27Someuniversitiesevenrequirethatallstudentsownorleasealaptop.(Para.9)Usagenote:lease,rent,hire1lease

在美國(guó)英語(yǔ)中，rent還可以指租用汽車或電器設(shè)備。例如：TheTVisrented.這臺(tái)電視機(jī)是租來(lái)的。在英國(guó)英語(yǔ)中，rent和hire都可以表示租用汽車或電器設(shè)備，但hireacar更為常用。
