| 词组 | they |
| 释义 | 1．不可用 they，them，their 等指 anybody，everybody 等词，参见 anybody 3，everybody 3，nobody 2和one 7 (2) 2．参见 company 2和party 1。用 army，cabinet，committee，crowd，family，fleet，government，ministry，navy，public 等词都该注意避免同样的错误。 3．they 有时指“一般人”或“某人”。例如：They say she is a poet. 和They tell all sorts of stories about his eccentric ways. 有谚语说：They say so, is half a lie. （传闻多失实。） 下面两句里的 they 的用法不算正当： I went into a shop where they sold toys. （最好把 they sold toys 改作 toys were sold） When I made inquiries at the counter, they told me that they knew nothing about it. （最好把 they told me that they knew nothing about it 改作 I was told that I could learn nothing about it there） 4．they who...（那……的人们）和 they that...远不及those who...或people who...普通。谚语里往往用。例如： They laugh best that (或 who) laugh last. （事尚未定，且慢得意。） They must hunger in frost that will not work in heat. （少壮不努力，老大徒伤悲。） |
