I made a call to my parents yesterday. To my disappointment, ________ of them answered it.
A. either
B. none
C. neither
D. nobody

Answer 1

答案C
解析：上句中提到了parents，后文应与之一致，都应用复数形式．又从“to my disappointment”中可知，父母中无人接电话，故用neither，“两者中任何一个都没/不……”．either“两者中任何一个”，表示肯定；none与nobody用于三者或三者以上．
命题立意：本题考查不定代词．掌握各个不定代词的含义与用法是解题的关键．
