| 释义 | no ◊ used as a reply No is used as a negative reply. 'Is he down there already?' ---'No, he's not there.' 'Did you come alone?' ---'No. John's here with me.' Note that no is used as a negative reply to negative questions. For example, if you are Spanish and someone says to you 'You aren't Italian, are you?', you say 'No'. You do not say 'Yes'. 'You don't smoke, do you?' ---'No.' 'It won't take you more than ten minutes, will it?' ---'No.' ◊ used as a determiner No is used in front of nouns as a negative determiner. It means 'not any'. For example, instead of saying 'She doesn't have any friends', you can say 'She has no friends'. I have no complaints. My children are hungry. We have no food. ◊ used with comparatives No is used in front of comparative adjectives instead of 'not'. For example, instead of saying 'She isn't taller than her sister', you say 'She is no taller than her sister'. The woman was no older than Kate. ...shells no bigger than a little fingernail. However, you do not use no and a comparative in front of a noun. You do not talk, for example, about 'a no older woman' or 'a no bigger shell'. ◊ used with 'different' No is used in front of 'different' instead of 'not'. The tasks which confront him are no different from those which faced his predecessor. ◊ used to forbid things No is often used on notices to tell you that something is not allowed. No is followed by an '-ing' form or a noun. No smoking. No entry. No dogs. No wheeled vehicles beyond this point. |
