Explanation
1. Did you buy anything special?
在英语中，anything, something, nothing和everything是用于指代事物的复合不定代词，与之相对应的复合不定代词anyone, someone, no one和everyone (anybody, somebody, nobody和everybody) 用于指人。与形容词连用时，形容词必须置于复合不定词之后，语法上称作“后置”。
e.g. I can see someone new in your group.
There’s nothing interesting in the news today.
2. Did you go anywhere interesting?
anywhere意为“在任何地方”，常用于一般疑问句或否定句中，代替somewhere。
e.g. I can’t find my keys anywhere.
我到处也找不到我的钥匙。
3. We took quite a few photos there.
a few 意为“一些，若干（=some）”，后跟可数名词复数形式。
quite a few 意为“相当多；不少（=many）”后跟可数名词复数形式。
e.g. A few girls are playing volleyball.
几个女孩正在打排球。
There are quite a few birds in the forest.
在那片森林里有很多鸟。
4. I just stayed at home most of the time to read and relax.
most意为“大多数”，后跟可数名词或不可数名词均可。
e.g. Most students go to school on foot.
大多数学生步行去上学。
【辨析】
most + 名词 泛指多数，无范围；
most + of + the (this/that/those/these等)名
词 ，指某一范围内的多数。
e.g. Most of the students go to school by
bike.
这些学生们中的多数骑自行车去上学。
