eg. Everyone should do ( ) part. 每人都应尽他的本分。
Everyone loves ( )mother(s).
（）里应该填his,还是their?
现在牛津字典里忽略了，朗文怎么说？

两个都可以。词典里有这两句话make everyone at their easeeverybody bought their own luncheveryone should do his best to serve the people另外their有个用法，代替单数不定代词，意思是his ,herlet us give everybody their due让我们承认每人各有所长。我个人认为，在过去男权社会，his是类似情况的首选，已成习惯，但是现在随时代变化，their会用得越来越多

everyone 可以把它看成一个单数，应该用his
