  Either you are wrong; or I am。 不是你错了,就是我错了。
  Either you or he is going to get the job。 不是你就是他将获得这份工作。

  If you’re late; you should make an apology to the host either immediately or later。 如果你迟到了,你应该立即或事后向主人道歉。8.Neither…nor…表示“既不…。又不…”的意思。注意neither…nor…整个结构作主语时,句子中的谓语动词通常要和邻近的主语一致:
  Neither the students nor I am ready yet。 学生们和我都还没有准备好。
  He worked neither for fame nor for money。 他干工作既不图名又不图利。

  You can draw a good horse in five minutes; yet you kept me waiting for a year。 你能在五分钟内画出一匹好看的马,然而你让我等了一年。
  二、从属连词
  从属连词是用来引导从句的。1.连词that; if; whether,连接代词what; which; who; whom; whose以及连接副词how; when; why; where可用来引导名词从句,充当主语、表语、宾语等。非正式文体中的宾语从句常省略that:
  I think (that) he’ll be back in an hour。 我认为他一小时后就会回来。
  Who they are doesn’t matter much。 他们是谁没什么大关系。
  Can you tell me where he is? 你能告诉我他在哪儿吗?
  He asked me if/whether I knew John。 他问我是否认识约翰。
  此外,that; which; who; whom; whose; when; why; where等还可以引导定语从句。2.连词when; while; before; after; till/until; since; as soon as等引导时间状语从句:
  She said hello to me when she saw me。 她看到我的时候,和我打了招呼。
  I’ll wait here until you e back。 我将在这里等你回来。3.连词if; unless引导条件状语从句;because; as; since引导原因状语从句:
  I’ll help her if she asks me to。 如果她要求我,我就帮助她。
  I won’t help her unless she asks me to。 除非她要求我,否则我不会帮她。
  He didn’t e because he was ill。 因为他病了,所以没来。
  As he hasn’t appeared yet; we shall start without him。 既然他还没有出现,我们就先开始吧。
  Since everybody is here; let’s begin。 既然大家都到了,咱们就开始吧。4.连词in order than; so that引导目的状语从句;so…that…引导结果状语从句:
  I locked the door in order that we might continue our discussions undisturbed。 (=I locked the door in order to continue our discussions undisturbed。) 我把门锁上了,以便我们可以继续讨论而不受打扰。
  The car ran so fast that I couldn’t see who was in it。 汽车跑得那么快,我没看清谁坐在里面。5.连词than; as…as…; not as/so…as…用来引导比较状语从句:
  He is better educated than his brother。 他比他兄弟受的教育好。
  He is as well educated as his brother。 他和他兄弟受的教育一样好。
  He is not as/so well educated as his brother。 他没有他兄弟受的教育好。6.连词although; though 引导让步状语从句;where; wherever 引导地点状语从句:
  I’ll go wherever you go。 不管你去哪儿,我就去那儿。
  Stay where you are! 原地别动!
  Though/Although she is rich; she’s not happy。 尽管她富有,但她并不幸福。
  一般来说,连词性质的连接词连接两个分句或引导一个从句,两个分句或主从复合句之间用逗号连接。
  副词性连接词
  副词性质的连接词不能象连词一样分句或主从复合句之间用逗号连接。也就是说它们不能连接两个分句或引导从句。它们引导的句子与前面的句子之间要用分号或句号,而它们与引导的句子之间往往用逗号。副词性质的连接词在写作中常常使用,主要分为以下几类:1.表示顺序的,如first; in the first place; then; finally; in the end等等。尤其要注意then。 如:
  误:He graduated from college in 2003; then he found a job。
  正:He graduated from college in 2003; and then he found a job。
  He graduated from college in 2003。 Then he found a job。2.表示递进关系的,如in addition; what is more; furthermore; moreover等。注意in addition 与in addition to 的区别:in addition 是副词性质;而in addition to 是介词性质,后面必须接宾语。3.表示转折关系的,如 however; nevertheless; nonetheless; on the contrary; in contrast; 等等。要注意不要把however 当成连词:
  误:In 2003; the United States launched the war on Iraq on account of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction (WMD); however; no WMD has been found in Iraq so far。
  正:In 2003; the United States launched the war on Iraq on account of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction (WMD)。     However; no WMD has been found in Iraq so far。
  In 2003; the United States launched the war on Iraq on account of Iraq possessing weapons of mass destruction (WMD)。 No WMD; however; has been found in Iraq so far。4.表示结果的,如therefore; consequently; thus; hence; as a result等。尤其要注意therefore; thus等不是连词以及hence的用法。如:
  I am busy today; so can you e tomorrow?
  I’ve never been to Spain。 Therefore; I don’t know much about it。
  The town was built on the side of the hill; hence the name Hillside。5.举例的,如for example; for instance; take…for example等。注意,for example; for instance 是副词性质,举例说明时,前面要用句号;take…for example本身是一个句子结构。
  He has been very helpful to me。 For example; he would offer to lend me money whenever I am in need。6.表示条件的,意思为“否则”,如or; otherwise等,注意它们不是连词。
  Put down your arms and put up your hands。 Or/Otherwise I will shoot you。 放下武器,举起手来,否则我就开枪。
  当然,or 有时表示选择(相当于either…or…省略了either):
  Put down your arms; or get killed。 要么放下武器,要么找死。
