答案

这些不定代词不仅在含义上有单复数之分,而且在用法上有泛指(无the)和特指(有the)之别.其用法区别可归纳如下：
1.指单数时的用法指单数时,若泛指用another,若特指用 the other.如：Give me another (one).另外给我一个.
Shut the other eye,please.请把另一只眼睛也闭上.
2.指复数时的用法指复数时,若泛指用 other(后接复数名词),若特指用the other(后接复数名词).如：There are other ways of doing it.做这事还有其他的办法.
Where have the other students gone?其他学生都到哪里去了?
3.other的用法others永远表示复数意义(且其后不能再接名词).其用法大致相当于)“other+复数名词”,同样地 the others 大致相当于“the other＋复数名词”.如：Other people [Others] may not think that way.别的人可能不这样想.
He is cleverer than the others [the other students] in her class.他比班上其他学生聪明.
4.another的用法another一般只能表单数,且其后接名词也只能接单数名词.但是若其后有数词或 few 修饰时,则也可接复数名词.如：We need another few chairs.我们还需要几把椅子.
In another two weeks it'll be finished.再过两个星期就可做完了.
5.与 some连用与 some 对比使用时,用 others(此时与 some 同义).如：Some say yes,and others say no.有人说对,有人说不对.
