372. 学生们被告知,任何人都不得把这些书籍带出阅览室。


[误] The students were told that anyone was not allowed to take the books out of the reading room.


[正] The students were told that nobody / no one was allowed to take the books out of the reading room.


:anybody 作主语时,谓语部分使用否定词不符合英语的习惯,应将 anybody 改为 nobody,并将否定词 not删去。又如:你喜欢的食物没有一种是适合我吃的(Nothing you like agrees with me)。
