Traditionally, English speakers have used the pronounshe, him, and his generically in contexts in which the grammatical form of the antecedent requires a singular pronoun, as inEvery member of Congress is answerable to his constituents;
傳統(tǒng)上，說英語的人一般把代詞he，him 和 his 用在先行詞的語法形式要求跟一個(gè)單數(shù)代詞的語境中， 如國(guó)會(huì)中每一位成員都應(yīng)對(duì) 其 選民負(fù)責(zé)；
例句：
A novelist should write about what he knows best;
小說作者應(yīng)寫自己 最為熟知的事物；

例句：
No one seems to take any pride in his work anymore, and so on.
沒有人再會(huì)對(duì)自己 的工作感到驕傲 等等。

Beginning early in the 20th century, however,the traditional usage has come under increasing criticismfor reflecting and perpetuating gender discrimination. ·Defenders of the traditional usage have argued that the masculine pronounshe, his, and him can be used generically to refer to men and women. This analysis of the generic use ofhe is linguistically doubtful.Ifhe were truly a gender-neutral form, we would expect that it could be used to refer to the members of any group containing both men and women.But in fact the English masculine form is an odd choice when it refers to a female member of such a group.There is something plainly disconcerting about sentences such as
可是從20世紀(jì)早期起，傳統(tǒng)用法不斷受到指責(zé)，因?yàn)樗从巢㈤L(zhǎng)久維持性別歧視。傳統(tǒng)用法辯護(hù)者認(rèn)為陽性代詞he，his 和 him 可以用來指代男人和女人的總稱。 有關(guān)he 的屬性用法的分析， 從語言學(xué)角度上來說，是有疑問的。如果he 果真是一個(gè)中性形式， 我們猜想它可以用來指代任何包含有男人和女人的群體中的成員。但事實(shí)上，在英語中用陽性形式來指代上述一群體中的女性成員構(gòu)成一種很奇特的選擇。如下面這個(gè)句子中明顯存在使人困窘之處：
例句：
Each of the stars of It Happened One Night [i.e., Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert] won an Academy Award for his performance.
.一夜風(fēng)流.中的每一位明星，即克拉克·蓋博和克勞狄特·柯爾貝爾， 因各自的表演獲奧斯卡金像獎(jiǎng) 。

In this case, the use ofhis forces the reader to envision a single male who stands as the representative member of the group, a picture that is at odds with the image that comes to mind when we picture the stars ofIt Happened One Night. Thushe is not really a gender-neutral pronoun; rather, it refers to a male who is to be taken as the representative member of the group referred to by its antecedent.The traditional usage, then, is not simply a grammatical convention;it also suggests a particular pattern of thought. ·Many writers sidestep the problem by avoiding the relevant constructions.In place ofEvery student handed in his assignment, they writeAll the students handed in their assignments; in place ofA taxpayer must appear for his hearing in person, they writeTaxpayers must appear for their hearings in person, and so on. Even when using the relevant constructions, however, many writers never use masculine pronouns as generics.In a series of sample sentences such asA patient who doesn`t accurately report ô sexual history to the doctor runs the risk of misdiagnosis, an average of 4' percent of the Usage Panel chose a coordinate form (her/his, his or her, and so on), 3 percent chose the plural pronoun (although the actual frequency of the plural in writing is far higher than this number would suggest),2 percent chose the feminine pronoun,another 2 percent chose an indefinite or a definite article,and 7 percent gave no response or felt that no pronoun was needed to complete the sentence. ·As a substitute for coordinate forms such ashis/her or her and his, third person plural forms,such astheir, have a good deal to recommend them: they are admirably briefand entirely colloquialand may be the only sensible choice in informal style;for example, in the radio commercial that says.Make someone happy—give them a goosedown Christmas,. wherehim would be misleading andher or him would be fussy. At least one major British publisher has recently adopted this usage for its learners` dictionaries,where one may read such sentences asIf someone says they are .winging it,. they mean that they are improvising their way. But in formal style,this option is perhaps less risky for a publisher of reference books than for an individual writer,who may be misconstrued as being careless or ignorant rather than attunedto the various grammatical and political nuances of the use of the masculine pronoun as generic pronoun.What is more, this solution ignores a persistent intuitionthat expressions such aseveryone and each student should in fact be treated as grammatically singular. Writers who are concerned about avoiding both grammatical and social problems are best advised to use coordinate forms such ashis or her. · Some writers see no need to use a personal pronoun implying gender unless absolutely necessary;in the sample sentenceA child who develops this sort of rash on ô hands should probably be kept at home for a couple of days, ' percent of the Usage Panel completed the sentence withthe. In addition, some writers have proposed other solutions to the use ofhe as a generic pronoun, such as the introduction of wholly new gender-neutral pronounslikes/he or hiser, or the switching between feminine and masculine forms in alternating sentences, paragraphs, or chapters. · In contrast to these innovations,many writers use the masculine pronoun as generic in all cases.For the same series of sample sentences, the average percentage of Usage Panel members who consistently completed the sentences withhis was 37. This course is grammatically unexceptionable,but the writer who follows it must be preparedto incur the displeasure of readerswho regard this pattern as a mark of insensitivity or gender discrimination.When a majority of writers are taking care to avoid the masculine as generic,the writer who uses it in this way may invite the inferencethat there is some pointed reason for referring to the representative instance as male.The entire question is unlikely to be resolved in the near future.See Usage Note at any ,anyone ,each ,every ,neither ,one
在這個(gè)例子中，his 的運(yùn)用，迫使讀者想象出一位單身男子站在那里作為這個(gè)群體的成員代表， 這一畫面與我們看到一夜風(fēng)流 一片中的明星時(shí)在腦中產(chǎn)生的形象是相抵觸的。 所以he 不是一個(gè)真正的中性代詞， 不如說，它指代的是一個(gè)被作為先行詞提及到的那個(gè)群體中的成員的男性代表。于是，傳統(tǒng)用法不僅僅只是語法慣例，它還暗示一種特別的思維方式。許多作家避免出現(xiàn)這種相關(guān)結(jié)構(gòu)以回避問題。他們不寫Every student handed in his assignment, 而寫All the students handed in their assignments， 不寫A taxpayer must appear for his hearing in person， 而寫Taxpayers must appear for their hearings in person , 諸如此類。 即使用到這種相關(guān)結(jié)構(gòu)，許多作家也從不把陽性代詞用作通稱詞。在如A patient who doesn`t accurately report______barule/sexual history to the doctor runs the risk for runs of misdiagnosis, 這樣一組樣句中， 被測(cè)試者平均百分之四十六的人選擇一種并列形式（her/his ,his or her , 等等）， 百分之三的人選擇復(fù)數(shù)代詞 （盡管在寫作中，使用復(fù)數(shù)的實(shí)際頻率遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)高于這個(gè)數(shù)字所暗示的），百分之二的人選擇陰性代詞，另有百分之二選擇了一個(gè)不定冠詞或定冠詞，還有百分之七的人沒有作出回答或感到不需要代詞來完成這樣的句子。作為his/her 或者 her and his 這種并列形式的替代詞， 第三人稱的復(fù)數(shù)形式，例如their 具有許多可取之處： 它們極其簡(jiǎn)潔，而且完全口語化；在不正式的文體中或許是唯一明智和選擇，例如在一臺(tái)收音機(jī)播出的廣告中說.Make someone happy--give them a goosedown Christmas，. 用him 會(huì)產(chǎn)生異義， 而her or him 又顯得累贅。 至少英國(guó)一家主要出版商最近已將這種用法編入了學(xué)習(xí)字典，讀者可以讀到如If someone says they are "winging it," they mean that they are improvising their way 。 在正式文體中，這種選擇對(duì)于參考書籍的出版商來說，危險(xiǎn)性要小一些，而對(duì)個(gè)體作家來說，危險(xiǎn)性要大，他可能會(huì)被誤認(rèn)為粗心大意或無知而不是為了協(xié)調(diào)，因把陽性代詞用作一般代詞而造成的在語法和政治方面的多種細(xì)微差別。另外，這種解決方法還忽略了一種固執(zhí)的直覺認(rèn)識(shí)，那就是認(rèn)為everyone 和 each student 從語法上來說，實(shí)際上應(yīng)是單數(shù)形式。 關(guān)心如何同時(shí)避免這種語法和社會(huì)問題的作家被告知，使用如his or her 這樣的并列形式。 一些作家認(rèn)為除非完全必要時(shí)，否則不需使用一個(gè)暗示性的人稱代詞。對(duì)于 A child who develops this sort of rash on_____barule/hands should probably be kept at home for a couple of days 這樣的句子， 百分之六的用法專題使用小組成員贊同the 用作一般代詞提出。 其他對(duì)he 的使用解決辦法， 如引入全新的中性代詞，象s/he 或者 hiser 或者輪流在句子、段落或章節(jié)中使用陰性和陽性代詞。 與這些建議形成對(duì)比的是，許多作家在所有的情況下都把陽性代詞作一般代詞。對(duì)于同樣的一組句子，用法專題使用小組中平均有百分之三十七的成員堅(jiān)持用his 來完成句子。 這種對(duì)策在語法方面是無懈可擊的，但遵循這一方法的作家必須有這樣的準(zhǔn)備：它會(huì)引起讀者的不滿，認(rèn)為這種形式是感覺遲鈍或性別歧視的。當(dāng)大部分作家注意避免將陽性代詞用作一般代詞時(shí)，仍使用這種方式的作家也許會(huì)招來這種推測(cè)，用男性來指代這種代表的場(chǎng)合其中必有尖銳的原因，整個(gè)問題看來在近期難以得到解決參見 any,anyone,each,every,neither,one
