下面我们继续本周《新概念英语2》第25课的重点句型或语法的分享。先来读一读课文：
一、课文原文
Lesson 25 Do the English speak English?
I arrived in London at last. The railway station was big, black and dark. I did not know the way to my hotel, so I asked a porter. I not only spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well. The porter, however, could not understand me. I repeated my question several times and at last he understood. He answered me, but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly. 'I am a foreigner,' I said. Then he spoke slowly, but I could not understand him. My teacher never spoke English like that! The porter and I looked at each other and smiled. Then he said something and I understood it. 'You'll soon learn English!' he said. I wonder. In England, each man speaks a different language. The English understand each other, but I don't understand them! Do they speak English?

二、重点句型或语法
本课主要学习并列句及其语序。在英语中，并列句指由并列连词把两个或两个以上的简单句连在一起的句子。
常用的连接并列句的连接词，如：and, but, both...and..., either...or..., neither...nor, not only...but also等。
学好并列句，掌握这些连接词的使用很重要，下面通过例句来帮助理解。
My sister is married and she lives in London.
It’s a nice house, but it hasn’t got a garden.
I was both tired and hungry when I arrived home.
I’m not sure where Maria’s from. She’s either Spanish or Italian.
There was an accident in the street where we live, but we neither saw nor heard anything.
He plays not only the piano but also the violin.
需要注意，除了both...and...连接的并列主语，其谓语动词用复数形式以外，其他并列连词在连接并列主语时，谓语动词多采用 “就近原则 ”。
即：谓语动词的单复数，由靠它最近的主语的单复数决定。例如：
Not only the students but also the teacher reads English every day.
Neither you nor she is good at drawing.
三、一课一题
