Dear Mr. Leading, Recently, I've been bombarded with this annoying alert. SETTINGS Backup Failed You do not have enough space in Cloud to back up this phone.

I spent NT$21,000 buying this "outstanding" phone and you gave me just 5GB of free Cloud storage I bought this so-called "leading" smartphone during your sale season, and all of your advertising campaigns kept persuading consumers that "our product is outstanding not only for its huge amount of storage but also for its automatic backup-customers won't lose much at all if they accidently lose their phone, for their photos, videos, contacts, and more will be safely stored in Cloud." However I've only been using your product for two weeks and there are already problems. My available Cloud space is already running low after only one week of taking photos and videos. I'm highly dissatisfied with your product and service. Tell me, how can I survive with only 5GB of storage space? Yours, Dianna Johns

Ms. Johns, Thank you for your message. We are sorry for bothering you with our notifications. We provide every customer with five gigabytes of free Cloud storage space, but if you do need more, we also offer other options. We offer customers alternative plans: NT$60 a month for 100GB, NT$90 for 300GB, and NT$150 for 1 TB. A new Cloud storage family sharing plan will also be available if you decide on the latter two plans. Understandably, you may have decided not to spend more for online storage since you've spent NT$21,000 on our product. Therefore, we suggest you regularly download all the files from your Cloud to any of your storage devices and then delete all of them. By doing so, you can still ensure a safe and accessible space of 5GB online storage where you can access what you have stored by logging in. Finally, many thanks for your understanding, and have a nice day. Yours sincerely, Leading Phone

國中英文文法第六冊6

not only ... but also ... 的用法：

標題句：Helen is not only pretty but also hard-working.
　　　　You can ask either your parents or your teacher.
　　　　I can play neither tennis nor basketball.

結　構：not only...but also..., either...or..., neither...nor...

not only ... but also ... 是「不僅‧‧‧也是‧‧‧」的意思，其實它和 and 的意思相同，只不過在用法上略有些差別而已。先看看底下簡單的例子：

e.g.	1. She is not only nice but also beautiful.
	2. Ted plays not only baseball but also soccer.
	3. Sarah gave her sister not only a pen but also a dictionary.
	4. We enjoy not only the movie but also the time with our friends at a movie theater.

你是否發現到，若把上述的三個句子改為用 and 來連接，意思沒有兩樣？

e.g.	1_1. She is nice and beautiful.
	2_1. Ted plays baseball and soccer.
	3_1. Sarah gave her sister a pen and a dictionary.
	4_1. We enjoy the movie and the time with our friends at a movie theater.

想想看一：試比較例句 1~4，請問 not only 和 but also 後所連接的詞，在性質上有何種關聯？　

想想看二：若 not only 後是連接「副詞」，則 but also 後所連接的詞，應該是什麼呢？

not only ... but also ... 也可以放在「主詞」的位置，但此時它的用法卻和 and 有很大的差別。底下的例句說明，先從 and 開始：

例：
5. John and Tom are students.（主詞有兩個人，所以是複數，be 用 are。）
6. The children and their dog like eating hamburgers. （主詞是複數，所以動詞 like 後面不需加 s。）

上述兩個例句若改為用 not only ... but also ... 連結，其結果就會有變化：

例：
5_1. Not only John but also Tom is a student.
　 （主詞看起來雖是有兩個人，但其實只算 but also 後的那一個，所以 be 用 is，且 students 改用 a student。）
6_1. Not only the children but also their dog likes eating hamburgers.

想想看三：在例句 6 中，因為主詞是「複數」，所以動詞 like 後面當然不可加 s；但例句 6_1 顯然是不同的，like 後加了 s，由此可推知，當 not only A but also B 放在「主詞」的位置時，在現在式中，其後的動詞，是要看 A 決定單、複數，還是要看 B 呢？

---

有兩個常被一起來拿討論的句型，分別是 either ... or ... 和 neither ... nor ...；在分開說明前，先把三個句型的對應中文一起呈列（中間「...」的部分，分別代之以 A 和 B，以方便說明）：

not only A but also B：既是 A 也是 B；A 和 B（兩個都是）
either A or B：不是 A，就是 B（只有其中一個是）
neither A nor B：不是 A，也不是 B（兩個都不是）

▲依經驗，學生最常弄錯的，就是 either ... or ... 和 neither ... nor ...，而且很巧的是，剛好兩個記相反了；利用了「數學中的加法」，這裡提供一個比較容易懂的聯想記憶方式：

從以上的加式中，我們可以知道，neither 是由 not 和 either 組合而成，也就是說，neither 本身就已含有「表示否定的 not」的意思；再看看 nor：

用和 neither 同樣的聯想方式，nor 是由 not 和 or 組合而成，也就是說，nor 本身也已含有「表示否定的 not」的意思。這樣我們就可以知道了，neither 和 nor 兩個都含有 not 的意思，所以 neither A nor B 的對應中文，就應是「不是Ａ也不是Ｂ」了，因為兩個都不是嘛！

例：
7. I can play neither basketball nor baseball.（我不會打籃球，也不會打棒球。）
　──我兩種球都不會打。

8. This tool is neither cheap nor useful.（這個工具，既不便宜，也不實用。）

想想看四：參考上述例句，請問在 neither ... nor ... 句型中，還有沒有加 not？

---

知道了 neither A nor B 的意思後，要懂 either A or B 就更容易了。先復習一下，or 的對應中文是什麼意思呢？相信你不會陌生，當然是「或者」囉！所以 A or B，就是「Ａ或Ｂ」：

例：
9. You can eat an apple or a guava.（你可以吃蘋果或是芭樂。）
　──兩種水果中選一種。

這種句子你應該不會不懂吧！而例句 9 又可以改為成：

10. You can eat either an apple or a guava.

改寫後的中文意思不變，也是「你可以吃蘋果或是芭樂。」再看看一個例子：

11. He can either drive the car or take the MRT.（他可以開車，或是搭捷運。）

想想看五：參考例句 7~11，在 either A or B 和 neither A nor B 中，A 和 B 在詞性中，有何種關聯呢？也就是說，若 A 是個「介詞片語」，那 B 應該用什麼呢？

想想看六：限用上述的三種句型表達方式，將下列各句，翻譯成英文。

1. 這家旅館，既不便宜，又不舒適。

2. 她答數學問題，既快又正確。

3. 在晚餐後，他不是看電視，就是喝一些茶。

4. 林先生不會開車，也不會騎機車。

5. 你的手錶不是在浴室裡，就是在電視機上。

6. 不管是那群學生，還是他們的英語老師，現在都在教室裡。

想想看七：請上、下文意，選出正確答案。含有 not only ... but also ..., either ... or ..., neither ... nor ..., too ... to ..., 及 so ... that ... 句型。

想想看一：試比較例句 1~4，請問 not only 和 but also 後所連接的詞，在性質上有何種關聯？

not only 和 but also 後所連接的詞，在詞性上要相同。（也就是說，not only 後所連接的詞為形容詞，則 but also 後所連接的詞，也要是形容詞。）

國中英文文法第六冊9

it 用法彙整：

標題句：全六冊各種 it 的用法彙整

結 構：it 用法彙整

在國中階段，有關 it 的用法，其實也學得滿多的，本單元就是將所學過的這些用法，做個總彙整，也順便復習一下。復習的方式，除了條列之外，主要是以網頁連結的方式處理，以便有較完整的回憶：

一、it 留在腦中最簡單的概念，莫過於是指「非人」的單數名詞，例：

1. George: What is that?
　Mary: It is a balcony.（那是陽台。）
　── it 是指「陽台」。

2. Jim: Where's the candle I just used?
　Henry: It's on the second floor.（它在二樓。）
　── it 是指「我用過的臘燭」。

二、it 可用來指「時間」、「天氣」、「長度」、「距離」等，例：

3. Oh, my God. It's ten thirty now. I've to leave now.（天啊！已十點半了，我須得馬上離開。）
　── it 是指「時間」：。

4. It's very cold today. You can't go out without a jacket or sweater.（今天很冷，你不可以不穿外套或毛衣，就到外面去。）
　── it 是指「天氣」：

5. It rained a lot this summer.（今年夏天下了很多雨。）
　── 講到「天氣」時，若句中「動詞」為 rain/snow 時，則「主詞」一定要用 it。

6. It's over 62 miles from Chiayi to Kaohsiung.（從嘉義到高雄超過 60 哩。）
　── it 是指「距離」。

三、it 可用來當「假主詞」，代替原來「真主詞」的「不定詞片語」或「that + 名詞子句」，例：

7. It is really not easy to get up early in cold winter.（在寒冷的冬天早起，實在是不容易。）　
　── it 是指「不定詞片語」to get up early in cold winter：。

8. It's true that Mr. Lin is his English teacher in the next semester.
　 （林老師是他們下學期的英語老師，是千真萬確的事。）
　── it 是指「that + 名詞子句」that Mr. Lin is his English teacher in the next semester：。

四、That's it. 相當於中文的「那就對了；就是這樣子。」，例：

9. That's it. Don't move it any more. It looks the most beautiful this way.（那就對了，不要再移了，這樣子看起來最漂亮。）

it 也可能被用來指「和人有關」的情況下：

五、指「和人有關的情況或正在發生的事情」，例：

10. How's it going, Tom? I haven't seen you for a very long time.（Tom 最近如何？我已好久好久沒見過你了。）

11. The worst of it is the cell phone can't work and there're no public phones near here.（最糟糕的是，手機不能用，附近也沒有公用電話。）

六、指「尚不知其性別的嬰兒」，例：

12. Look at the baby. It has been smiling at you for a long time.（注意看那個嬰兒，它一直對著你笑好久了。）

七、用於「詢問是誰時」，例：

13. Someone is knocking at the door. Please go to see who it is.（有人在敲門，勞煩去看一下是誰。）

八、用於「說出誰在講電話」，例：

14. Hello, it's Chuck here.（哈囉，我是 Chuck。）
