　　有這樣一道題：

　　I will give the ticket to __________ wants it.

　　A. whoever B. no matter who C. whatever D. no matter what

　　此題應(yīng)選 A。容易誤選B。選項(xiàng)C，D都是錯(cuò)的，因?yàn)閺木湟馍峡矗?ldquo;想要票的”應(yīng)該是“人”(whoever)而不能是“東西”(whatever)。至于為什么選 whoever 而不選no matter who，這要從它們?cè)诰渲幸龑?dǎo)的成分說(shuō)起：

    no matter who通常只能引導(dǎo)狀語(yǔ)從句，而不能引導(dǎo)名詞性從句。而 whoever 既可引導(dǎo)名詞性從句(= anyone that)也可引導(dǎo)狀語(yǔ)從句(=no matter who)：

    1. 引導(dǎo)名詞性從句(只用whoever)：

    誰(shuí)想去我就帶誰(shuí)去。

    正：I’ll take whoever wants to go.

    誤：I’ll take no matter who wants to go.

    誰(shuí)贏了都可以獲獎(jiǎng)。

    正：Whoever wins gets a prize.

    誤：No matter who wins gets a prize.

    不管這話是誰(shuí)對(duì)你說(shuō)的，他都是在撒謊。

    正：Whoever told you that was lying.

    誤：No matter who told you that was lying.

    2. 引導(dǎo)狀語(yǔ)從句(兩者可換用)：

    不管是誰(shuí)打電話來(lái)，都說(shuō)我出去了。

    正：Whoever phones，tell them I’m out.

    正：No matter who phones，tell them I’m out.

    不管是誰(shuí)這樣說(shuō)，那都是錯(cuò)的。

    正：Whoever says so，it is wrong.

    正：No matter who says so，it is wrong.
