But now,I realize _________ I do can make things better.

答案是anything.

想问一下:

any、anything、whatever,能不能填?

any和anything如何不同?

anything和whatever如何不同?

But now, I realize anything I do can make things better. (正)

But now, I realize whatever I do can make things better.(正)

But now, I realize any I do can make things better.(误)

三个宾语从句剖析:

1. anything I do can make things better:

I do 是 anything 的定语从句。

2. whatever I do can make things better:

whatever I do 是名词性关系分句(简称名词性从句),whatever 身兼两职,what等于 anything that。

但,anything I do 和 whateverI do 有什么区别是:前者可省略 I do,省略后语法仍然正确。后者不能,由于名词性分句需要有“主谓成分”。

3. any I do can make things better (误)

any 可以用作代词或量词,但,它的词义(指人或指物)需要有上下文支持,或者用 of 表明它指人还是指物。比如:

There is a lot of work, but I cant do any.

I can do any of the things.

You will make friends with any of the boys.

就是说,any 指代人或物,需要有语境,不然不可以单独用。

假如原句改为 But now, I realize any of the things I do can make things better. 就能了。
