Answer 1

My father and my mother are both from England =Both of my father and my mother are from England [解题过程] both的用法总结 both的用法有两种，它可以和名词、代词连用，也可以和动词连用，在句中作主语、宾语及同位语，也可作定语。现将其用法归结如下： 1)both与名词、代词连用 (1)both＋(of) ＋the/ 物主代词/指示代词+名词，如： ①Both of the cats are asleep. 两只猫都睡着了。 ②I bought both of these bottles in China two years ago. 两年前我在中国买了这一对瓶子。 ③Both of his daughters are doctors. 他的两个女儿都是医生。 (2)both直接修饰名词时，不加of。如： ①Both children won prizes. 两个孩子都得了奖。 【注意】不能说both of children，但可以说 both of the children. ②I've got oil on both hands. 我两手都是油。 【注意】不能说both of hands，可说both of my hands。 (3)在人称代词前一定要用both of，不能说 both we或 both us，但可以说us both, them both等。如： ①Both of us like skating. 我们俩都喜欢滑冰。 ②I want both of them. 两个我都要。 2)both与动词连用 当both在句中作主语的同位语时，也可与动词连用，both在句中的位置有以下三种情况： (1)放在是动词be之后。如： ①The children are both lovely. 这两个孩子都很可爱。 ②They are both from Australia. 他们两个都是澳大利亚人。 【注意】在感叹句或简略答语中，both应置于be之前。如： ③How beautiful they both are! 他们俩多漂亮啊！ ④----Are you both from Japan? ----Yes, we both are. “你们俩都是日本人吗？”“是的，我们是。” (2)放在行为动词前。如： ①We both like watching TV.我们俩都喜欢看电视。 ②The men both looked French.那两个人看起来都像是法国人。 (3)当谓语动词是由几部分组成时，both要放在第一个助动词后面。 如： ①We have both studied acting. 我们俩都学过演戏。 ②The rooms have both been cleaned. 这两间屋子都已打扫过了。 3)both作代词时，可单独使用，其后不接名词。如： ①The brothers are good at playing basketball. Both will take part in the game.这弟兄俩人篮球打得好，他们俩都将参加比赛。 ②----Which one do you want? ----I'll take both please. “你要哪一个？”“两个我都要。” 【注意】both与not连用，是部分否定。如： ①Both the doors are not open. 两扇门并不都开着
