语句型总结
有些英语句子“貌相”（形式）否定，实则表示肯定的意义,甚至表示非常强烈的肯定意义。由此,语言的神奇妙用被体现得淋漓尽致。本文就这一有趣的语言现象归纳总结了25个句型,以期能给大家带来一点点帮助。

这一点的。
4． never too…to是对too…to的再否定,表示肯定。例如: It’s never too old to learn. 活到老,学到老。
5． not…for nothing中,not用来否定for nothing,从而加强了谓语的肯定意义。例如:

他勃然大怒是有原因的。

nothing for nothing.(六)
高考英语词语辨析none, nothing, no one
none这个词的用法极易与nothing, no one等混淆,以下是本人参考搜集的一些资料加以整理的:
一、 none 与nothing的用法比较:
先请看下面一道题:
I want some coffee, but there is _______ in the pot.
A. no one B. something C. none D. nothing
很多同学选了D,而正确答案却是C。出现错误的原因是弄不清none与nothing的区别。现请看:
1) none = not any, not one 一点也没有；一个也没有，即数量概念。既可指人，也可指物，代指上文提到的事物，含特指概念。如:
He wants me to lend him some money, but I have none at hand.
他想要我借些钱给他,但我现在手头上一个子儿也没有。
They asked for nine books, but there is / are none in the library at
present. 他们需要九本书,但目前图书馆一本都没有。
2) nothing = not anything, 意为"没有任何东西;什么也没有"，强调内容，只能指物，泛指。如:
He felt hungry, but he could find nothing to eat in the kitchen.
他饿了,但在厨房里他没有找到吃的东西。
Nothing in the world is difficult if you put your heart into it.
世上无难事,只怕有心人。
再看一道高考题:
Most of us would rather ride bicycles as bike-riding has_______ of the trouble of taking buses. (96上海)
A. nothing B. none C. some D. neither
二、 none与no one 的用法比较:
1) none作代词时,可以指人,是"一个人也没有"的意思。如:
The war broke out. All the people felt frightened but none had left there. 战争爆发后，人们很惶恐但是没有一个人人离开那儿。
另外,none后常接of短语,of后可接复数可数名词或代词,作主语时,谓语动词用单、复数形式皆可;of后也可接不可数名词,这时谓语动词必须用单数形式。如: Sorry, but none of us speaks/ speak English. 抱歉!我们没有一个人讲英语。 None of the money on the desk is mine. 桌上的那些钱都不是我的。
注意:none指的是三者或三者以上的人或物中"没有一个";如果指两者中"没有一个"应用neither。请比较:
There are many apples in the basket, but none of them are fresh.
篮子里有很多苹果,但没有一个是新鲜的。
There are two apples on the plate, but neither of them is fresh.
盘子里有两个苹果,但没有一个是新鲜的。
2) no one= nobody 只指人,“没有人”，不能指物,语气比none强,后面不能接of构成的短语。no one作主语时,谓语动词只能用单数。如:
No one / No
