   anybody
2. B.
   something
3. C.

   everybody

Answer 1

C
试题分析：考查不定代词，anybody意思“任何人”， something意思“某个东西”， anything意思“随便什么事情”， everybody意思“每个人”，句子意思“我认为他可能是除教师以外的任何职业”，所以选C
考点：考查不定代词
点评：anything一般用于疑问句或否定句，意思“任何事情”；如果用于肯定句时，表示加强语气，意思“随便什么事情”，句子But I think he can be anything but a teacher是个宾语从句，省略了引导词that。
