『今朝彼女が彼の家に電話したら誰もいなかった。』 という意味なので、nobody was です。 anybody wasn'tという形で入れると、 『みんながいたわけではなかった』という意味になり、 目当ての彼はいなかったけど誰かはいたことになります。 これでは文の意味が変わってしまうので、成り立ちません。 not anybodyと入れても『誰もいない』ではなく 『みんなが～』の意味合いが強い表現になるので、 nobody wasが正解です。

nobody wasが正しいと思います。 anybodyを使って「誰もいない」を言う場合は、not anybodyの語順にするのが普通で、逆にanybody notの順番になるのは、何だか変な感じがします。 nobody was at home. OK there was not any body at home. OK not anybody was at home. めずらしい言い方だけど、まあOK anybody wasn't at home. ちょっと不自然な感じがします。

- 過去完了 と 関係副詞について
初めに、過去完了について宜しくお願いします。 テキストの中で、下記のような例文が載っていました。 "Amy had just gotten home when I phoned. she had been at her mother's. " "but - Amy wasn't at home when I phoned. she was at her mother's" Amy hadn't been at home when I phoned, she'd beem at her mother's とは言えないのでしょうか、それとも過去形でも過去完了でも大丈夫なのでしょうか？ When Amy had gotten there , he was at the party とは言えますか？ 関係副詞について。 she went to the school on the day when it was demolished. と例文にがありました。まず、これの先行詞はon the dayなんでしょうか？ 関係副詞は前置詞+関係代名詞と覚えてきたんですが、このwhen には on the day which でも言い換え可能ですか？

ROCK STAR DIVORCE AIN'T EASY Robin asked why Scott's performances have been erratic lately (a reference to the time she went to see him earlier this year and he took forever to take the stage and, later, was incoherent) Scott said his failing marriage wasn't the only thing weighing on him: "My brother died [this year]...it was drug related." Scott added that the situation with his wife was "very complicated," as she left him to figure things out on his own when he needed her most: "I have a [new] girlfriend now...a model/actress/director." Scott told Howard that his wife left him for "Joe the Plumber" (not The "Joe the Plumber," just some guy) when he was in rehab: "I don't want to know anything about it...it'll eventually come out. It definitely drove me crazy - my biggest addiction was my wife...I'll always love her...whenever she needed help, I was there at home to detox her. Whenever I needed help, it was all, 'He can't be around here.'" Scott also noted that their break-up inspired a lot of the songs on "Happy in Galoshes."
