Задание 6. Грамматика: Сочинительные союзы either... or(или... или), neither ... nor (ни... ни), both ... and (и... и; как... так и)
Эти союзы могут соединять любые части речи.
Не plays both football and basketball. — Он играет и в футбол, и в баскетбол. (Он играет как в футбол, так и в баскетбол.)
She'll come either on Monday or on Tuesday. — Она приедет или в понедельник, или во вторник.
Не is neither at home nor in the office. — Его нет ни дома, ни в офисе.
Обратите внимание, что в отрицательных предложениях с союзом neither... nor глагол стоит в положительной форме, так как в английском предложении возможно только одно отрицание, и союз neither... nor выполняет эту функцию.
Сравните: She drinks neither tea nor coffee. — Она не пьет ни чай, ни кофе.
Если подлежащее, состоящее из двух слов, соединяется союзом either... or или neither... nor, то глагол-сказуемое употребляется в единственном числе, если последнее слово стоит в единственном числе.
Если последнее слово стоит во множественном числе, то глагол-сказуемое употребляется во множественном числе.
Either Pete or Bill knows this man. —Или Пит, или Билл знает этого человека.
Neither my sister nor my parents know the man. — Ни моя сестра, ни мои родители не знают этого человека.
Если подлежащее, состоящее из двух слов, соединяется союзом both... and, то глагол-сказуемое употребляется во множественном числе.
