初中英语满分作文必备短语与句型精讲汇总
eitheror... 要么...要么... 或者...或者... 不是...就是...
1、考点:表示两者之一,连接句子中两个并列的成分。
either...or...连接两个主语时,其谓语动词应与最近的一个主语在人称和数上保持一致,这就是通常说的就近原则。例如:
Either you or I am going there tomorrow. 明天要么你去那里,要么我去那里。
注意:如果把上句变成一般疑问句,助动词形式与主语you保持一致,所以要用are提问,而不是am。
例如: Are either you or I going there tomorrow? 明天是你还是我去那里?
2、考题:Mr.Black comes from America, and he has studied Chinese in China for 5 years, so you can talk with him .
A. either in English or in Chinese B. not in Chinese but in English
C. just in English not in Chinese D. neither in Chinese nor in English
真题解析:答案选A。本题考查eitheror的用法。由题意布莱克先生来自美国,他已经在中国学习汉语5年了,可知他既能讲英语又能讲汉语,故选A。
真题翻译:布莱克先生来自美国,他已经在中国学习汉语5年了,因此你可以用英语或者汉语和他说话。
3、必备例句:
We cant allow him to stay at home, or he will either watch TV or play games.
我们不能让他呆在家里,否则他不是看电视就是玩游戏。
Were going to the park this Saturday, either by bus or by bike.
我们这周六去公园,或者做大巴或者骑车去。
4、扩展:
(1) either (两者之中)任一的
You may go by either road. 你两条路都可以走。
She studied history and philosophy, but she had little interest in either subject.
她学过历史和哲学,但对这两门课都没有多少兴趣。
He had a bag in either hand. 他两手各拿一只包。
(2) neither...nor... 表示既不也不
其含义是否定的,可连接任意两个并列的成份。例如:
She likes neither butter nor cheese. 她既不喜欢黄油也不喜欢乳酪。
此句中neither...nor...连接两个宾语。当neither...nor...连接两个主语时,也应遵循就近原则。例如:
Neither dad nor mum is at home today. 今天父母都不在家。
