不要混淆 neither 和 none 的用法。neither 是对两个人或物的否定,如:Neither had close friends at university (两个人在上大学时都没有亲密的朋友);neither of 的用法与 neither 相同,后跟代词或名词短语,如:Neither of them spoke (两个人都不说话),Neither of these extremes is desirable (两个极端都不可取);注意可以在单数可数名词前使用 neither,如:Neither side can win (双方都赢不了)。在否定三个或三个以上的人或物时,使用 none,如:None could afford the food (没有人买得起这些食物);none of 的用法与 none 相同,后跟代词或名词短语,如:None of them had learned anything (他们中谁也没学到任何东西),None of his companions answered (他的同伴谁也没吭声)。
