Question

请知道的朋友回答一下如下英语方面的我的疑问，谢谢！

But not pair of eyes strayed from the history books which twenty-one little girls were studying so earnestly. 这句话中的not可否改成no 为什么? which 在这句话中起什么作用，请帮忙举例说明一下，感谢！

Answer 1

no = not any, 如：
I have no child= I haven't any child.
no pair of eyes = not any pair of eyes.
原句有问题。

Answer 2

原句有问题，应该是not a pair，which=the history books。
