anything but還是anybody but

　　“It’s said that he is a wise leader.” “Oh, no, he is _____ but a wise leader.”

　　A. anything B. anyone

　　C. anybody D. anywhere

　　【陷阱】容易誤選B、C。因為句子主語指人，似乎只有 B、C 才與之一致。

　　【分析】其實(shí)，正確答案應(yīng)選A。因為 anything but 是習(xí)語，意為“根本不是”或“一點(diǎn)也不”，不僅可用于事物，也可用于人。如：

　　I’ll do anything but that. 我絕不會干那種事。

　　The party was anything but a success. 晚會根本不成功。

　　Her father was anything but a poet. 她父親根本不是詩人。

　　Such a man wasanything but a hero. 那樣的人絕不算英雄。
