巧学英语语法:no与not…any的用法

  两者均表示否定,有时可互换:
          There aren't any buses after midnight. 午夜以后没有公共汽车。
          There are no buses after midnight. 午夜以后没有公共汽车。
          如果用no取代not…any, 则显得略为正式一点,并表示更强烈的否定。在普通谈话中,否定句用not…any, 但如果需要用一个否定词来作句子的开头,那么就必须用no,而不能用not…any。如:
          非公莫入
          正:No admittance except on business.
          误:Not any admittance except on business.
          六十五岁以上的人无需购票。
          正:No tickets are needed for people over 65.
          误:Not any tickets are needed for people over 65.
          没有人能做出这样残酷的事。
          正:No human being would be capable of such cruelty.
          误:Not any human being would be capable of such cruelty.
          未听说有人受重伤。
          正:No serious injuries were known to have occurred.
          误:Not any serious injuries were known to have occurred.
