【问】 every+单数名词作主语时，其代词可使用they(their)吗?

【答】 按照学校语法，应当采用every+单数名词...he(she)的用法。但是，英语语言学家目前已普遍承认every+单数名词...they (their)用法的正确性：

1. When every man had assembled，the master paid them their wages (R. A. Close)大家集合齐了之后雇主给他们发了工资。

2. Every member brings their own lunch. (CEU)

每个人都带午饭。

3. I told every student what I thought of them.

我把对每个学生的看法告诉了他们大家。
