   请看下面一题:

  It is so difficult a problem1 that _________ student in this class _________ work it out.
  A. any, can't B. no, can C. every, can D. no, can't
  【分析】此题很容易误选A,因为从句意上看,选A可将此句理解为“这个问题是如此之难,这个班任何一个学生都不可能做出来”。但按英语习惯,any(任何一个)作为非肯定句,它只能出现在否定词 not 之后,而不能在其前,即可说 not any, 但不说 any not。所以正确答案应选B。又如:
  这工作太难了,恐怕谁也干不了。
  正:The work is too difficult. I'm afraid no one can do it.
  误:The work is too difficult. I'm afraid any one can't do it.
  什么也阻碍不了我同她结婚。
  正:Nothing can prevent2 me from marrying3 her.
  误:Anything can't prevent me from marrying her.
  类似地,either4 (两者中的任意一个)作为非肯定词,它也应出现在否定词之后,而不能出现在否定词之前。如:
  这两兄弟都不聪明。
  正:Neither5 of the brothers is clever.
  误:Either of the brothers is not clever.
