With due respect to the above posters,
Ju, may I also refer you to the following extract from P.105 of "Chambers Essential English Grammar and Usage", where it states:
Between or Among?
1. A group of
two or very few specified individuals share something
between them:
The fees are divided between the writer and the publisher.
the love between man and wife.
Duties are shared between Geoffrey,Isobel and myself.
Agreement has been reached between management, trade union officials and workers.
Among is not used if the group only consists of two:
After the divorce, she divided her time equally between her parents.
2. Use between or among:
with a specified number of people or things:
a prize of $2 million, to be divided between (or among) the top eight players.
with a group of people or things that are not individually specified:
The profits are shared out between (or among) the employees.
Divide the sweets between (or among) yourselves.
Hope that helps.
