(三) 正误辨析
[误] Both my parents are not here. They went to the concert just now.
[正] Neither of my parents is here. They went to the concert just now.
[析] 在英语中both一般用于肯定句中,如用于否定句中,其意义也不同于汉语,如:Both of us are not right. 在英语中应被理解为"我们俩不都对。"而Neither of us is right。 才能被理解为"我们俩无一正确"。
[误] He or his parents has some tickets for the film.
[正] He or his parents have some tickets for the film.
[析] 由or 连接两主语时,谓语动词应与相临近的那一个主语保持一致。
[误] You should study hard, and you won't pass the exam.
[正] You should study hard, or you won't pass the exam.
[析] or作为连词,这里的意思为"否则"。又如:Hurry up, or you'll be late for school.
[误] Though he is poor, but he is ready to help others.
[正] Though he is poor, he is ready to help others.
[正] He is poor, but he is ready to help others.
[析] "虽然……但是"是中文中的常用结构,但在英文中用了"虽然"则不要用"但是",用了"但是"则不能再用"虽然",二者只可用其一。
[误] Either you or I are on duty.
[正] Either you or I am on duty.
[析] either…or 连接两个主语时,其谓语动词与相临近的一个主语相呼应,这也叫作就近原则。类似的用法还有or, neither… nor, not only…but also等。
[误] Tom is our English teacher and teaching English in our school now.
[正] Tom is our English teacher and is teaching English in our school now.
[析] 并列句中常常在后面的句子中作一些省略,以免重复,但不是所有词都可作任意的省略的。当你连接的是两个系动词时,后面的那个系动词不可省略,也就是讲连接的部分不可省略。
[误] My father likes swimming and to collect stamps.
[正] My father likes swimming and collecting stamps.
[析] 由并列连词连接的两个部分要保持相等的语法结构。如是动名词则都用动名词,如用不定式则都应用不定式,这是初学者要注意的一点。
[误] My father is reading a newspaper, I am doing my homework.
[正] My father is reading a newspaper while I am doing my homework.
[析] 两个并列句中间不可用逗号连接,要用并列连词来连接。
[误] My father asked me that if I wanted to learn how to drive.

[析] 宾语从句的连接词只能有一个不能重复使用。
