Both用法浅谈

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Both可作形容词、代词或副词用,意思是“两个”“双方”“两个都”。在句中可作主语、宾语或同位语。


如:Both are right.两者都对。(主语 I like both.两个我都喜欢。(宾语
Both可参与构成名词词组,也可和动词连用,还可与and构成并列连词。在使用时,要注意下列几点: 一、Bothboth of后都可接复数名词,构成名词词组。Both后的名词前可有定冠词、指示代词或物主代词作修饰限定,也可没有;both of后的名词前却一定要有定冠词、指示代词或物主代词作修饰限定。
如:可以说both(the theseher children;也可以说both of the(theseherchildren;但一般不说both of children
Both of后可接人称代词宾格,both后则不可;但人称代词宾格后可接both可以说both of us(youthem,一般不说both us(youthem,但可以说us(youthemboth 二、Both与动词连用时,大多数放在系动词be之后,其它动词之前。 如:His parents are both workers.
They both enjoy reading. 若句中谓语动词包含情态动词或助动词时,both大多放在第一个情态动词或助动词之后。
如:The bridges must both be built this year. 两座桥都必须在今年修建。
kate and Mary have both gone to English. 凯特和玛丽都去了英国。
三、Both可与and构成并列连词,连接两个性质相同并在句中作相同成分的并行结构。 如:Both he and his brother are good at English. (连接两个主语 She can both dance and sing. (连接两个谓语动词 Mary is both kind and beautiful. (连接两个表语
四、含both的句子变为否定时,是将both改为neither 如:当肯定句为Both of the boys are clever.(两个男孩都聪明时,否定句当为Neither of the boys are clever.(两个男孩都不聪明Both后接复数名词,neither后接单数名词,动词的人称和数也要随之变化。若把句子变为Both of the boys are not clever,则是不完全否定。意思是:并不是两个男孩都聪明(一个聪明一个愚笨
五、含bothand„的句子变为否定句时,将bothand„改为neithernor..,连接的两个部分若是名词,可以是单数,也可以是复数。
如:I know both the man and the woman. 我既认识那男子,也认识那妇女。
I know neither the man nor the woman. 我既不认识那男子,也不认识那妇女。 Both beats and birds would have the bat as their friend. Neither beats nor birds would have the bat as their friend.
用于连接两个表示并列关系的名词或代词。如:
Both New York and London have traffic problems. 纽约和伦敦都存在交通问题。
The secretary both speaks and writes Spanish. 这位秘书不但能讲而且能写西班牙语。 Youve given both your uncle and myself a lot of trouble. 你给了你姑父和我很多麻烦。 Sophia was both happy and sorry to see her. 索菲娅看到她既高兴又难过。 The food was both bad and insufficient. 食物既坏又不够吃。

I did all this both for you and for myself. 我做这一切是为了你,也为我自己。 He both speaks and writes Spanish. 他既会说也会写西班牙语。 Tonight they will both sing and dance. 今晚他们将又唱歌又跳舞。
说明:作为关联并列连词,它通常应连接两个相同性质的句子成分,但有时后一成分可能省略与前一成分相同的词。另外,若连接两个成分作主语,谓语总是用复数。如: Both she and I are good at English. 她和我都擅长英语。
Both teaching and research work are making great strides. 教学与科研都在大踏步前进。 Both she and Sophia were pleased with the girl. 她和索菲娅都喜欢这个姑娘。


either...or...
neither...nor... 一、either...or...
either...or...意为"或者„„或者„„;不是„„就是„„"之意。表示两者之一,连接句子中两个并列的成分。例如:

When the girl is happy, she either sings or dances. 那个女孩高兴时,不是唱就是跳。(此句中either...or...连接两个动词,因为主语是单数第三人称,谓语动词要用其相应的形式。 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,这就是我们通常说的"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?

Either you or he has lunch at school. 其一般疑问句应为:Do either you or he have lunch at school? 是你还是他在学校吃午饭?

若要对either...or...句型进行否定时,只需把either...or...换成neither...nor...即可。例如: Either you or she is good at drawing. 变为否定句应为:Neither you nor she is good at drawing. 你和她都不擅长绘画。

我们还可以单独使用either,其意为"两者中的任何一个"。例如:

There are many shops on either side of the street. 街道两边有许多商店。这个句子也可以这样表达:There are many shops on both sides of the street. 在街道两边有许多商店。 either用在否定句的句末,表示""的意思。例如:

If you don\'t go there. I won\'t, either. 如果你不去那里,我也不去。 二、neither...nor...
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...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。

若将neither...nor...句型变为肯定句,只需把neither...nor...改为both...and...即可,同时谓语动词必须用复数形式。例如:

Both dad and mum are at home today. 今天父母都在家。


还可以单独使用neither作主语,表示"两者中没有一个"。例如: Neither of them likes football. 他们俩都不喜欢足球。

neithernor还有另外一种用法,就是当表达一个人没有做某事,另一个人也没做同一类事时,可用neithernor进行简略回答,其结构为:Neither / Nor+助动词 / 情态动词 / be动词+主语。例如:

He doesn\'t go to school by bike. Neither / Nor do I. 他不是骑自行车上学,我也不是。

They didn\'t go to the park yesterday. Neither / Nor did we. 昨天他们没去公园,我们也没去。

1. not onlybut also面所连接的词的词性必须对等:

(2 The nurse was not only competent but also kind. 这位护士不仅能干而且亲切和蔼。 (3 They not only broke into his office and stole his books, but also tore up his manuscripts. 他们不仅闯进他的办公室,偷走了他的书,而且还撕掉了他的手稿。

2. not only只能连用,而but also既可连用,也可分开用:

a. He speaks not only English, but also French. 他不仅说英语,还说法语。

b. Television is not only boring, but it also wastes a lot of time. 电视不仅乏味,而且还浪费许多时间。
c. She was not only compelled to stay at home, but she was also forbidden to see her friends. 她不仅被强迫蹲在家中,而且被禁止去看朋友。 3.谓语动词的数应与but also后主语的数保持一致:
Not only you but also Mr. Zhang teaches in this college. 不仅你,张老师也在此学院教书。 Not only Mr. Zhang but also you teach in this college. 不仅你,张老师也在此学院教书。

1as well as常用来连接两个并列的成分,如名词、形容词、动词、介词,通常不位于句首。也,还解。它强调的是前一项,后一项只是顺便提及。因此连接并列主语时,谓语动词与前一项一致;翻译时要先译后面,再译前面。而用not only ...but also...连接时,谓语动词与后一项一致。如:
Your wife as well as you is friendly to me. 不仅你而且你的妻子也对我很友好。
(=Not only you but also your wife is friendly to me

Electric energy can be changed into light energy as well as into sound energy. 电能既可以被转变成声能,又可以被转变成光能。
