every和each修饰两个由and连接的单数可数名词
It is said that every boy and girl in this school must have___hair cut short.
专四答案中是认为是选his其答案解析是：当every和each修饰两个由and连接的单数可数名词，且两个名词一个为阴性，一个为阳性，其物主代词用his。不知道这是否正确？

《韦氏高阶》his的释义和例句以及补充说明。西方女权运动开始以前，he, his, him可以用作中性代词，在非常正式的语体中其实还是可以见到这种用法的。不过鉴于女权人士的反对，现在多用his or her代替his，非正式语体还可以把their用作中性第三人称物主代词的。专四考试语法考试考察正式语体用法，所以用his是没有问题的。当然这里用his or her也是可以的。
— used to refer to a person of either sex in general statements or when the sex of the person is unknown
Each student should do his own work. [=each student should do his or her own work; all students should do their own work]
◊ This use of his was common in the past but is now often avoided because it is considered sexist.
