Question

______ professional violinist practises for several hours a day , but ______ violinist has his own way of playing the Beethoven concert .

A．Each , every

B．Every ; each

C．All ; every

D．Either ; every

Answer 1

B

虽然every与each在汉语中的词意是："每一个"，但这两个代词的内涵不完全一样。every与all含义很接近，如：He has read every book / all books on the subject . (有关这个科目的书籍他全都读过了。)英文中常用every进行概括，强调事物或人的总体性，而each则表示个别概念，当我们说each violinist时，我们想到的是每个不同的人做着不同的事。又如：We want every child to succeed , however each child will find his or her own personal road to success . (我们希望每个孩子都能成功，然而每个孩子将会找到他或她个人的成功之路。)
