Lesson25 Do the English speak English
Q:Why does the writer not understand the porter
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. Youll soon learn English! he said. I wonder.

different language. The English understand each other, but I dont
understand them! Do they speak English

并列句的语序（Word order in compound statements）
简单陈述句的语序:
它一般为：主语+动词+宾语（可有可无）+状语（可有可无，
分为方式、地点和时间状语，位置相对比较灵活）。
通过并列连词可以把几个简单句连接起来构成一个并列句。
在并列句中，各分句要根据上下文的要求按逻辑次序排列，但各分句都同等重要并独立存在。
我们常常把并列句中的各分句看成是并列主句。常用的并列连词有：
and， and then， but， so， yet，or， both…and，either…or，
neither…nor， not only…but also/but…as well等。
这些并列连词可以用来表示另加（and）、对比（but，yet）、
选择（or）、连续（and then）以及结局或结果（so）。
语法知识点
并列句的语序（Word order in compound statements）
并列句基本上保留了简单句的词序,and前面一般不加逗号，
但其他连词前则一般要加逗号：
Jim speaks Spanish, but his wife speaks French.
吉姆讲西班牙语，而他妻子却讲法语。
I've got a cold, so I'm going to bed.
我得了感冒，所以我要去睡觉。
当并列连词连接的成分相同时，通常不再重复：
He either speaks French or understands it.
他或是会讲法语，或是懂法语。（主语相同，省略）
Either you or I can eat the apple.
这个苹果或者是你吃，或者是我吃。（谓语相同，省略）
Both Mary and Jane understands English.
玛丽和简都懂英语。
当 both…and， either…or和neither…nor连接主语时，谓语动词与后一个主语保持一致：
Neither Liz nor I teach mathematics.
莉兹和我都不教数学。（第2个主语为I，所以teach后不加-es）
