Determiners (both, each, either or neither, some, any)Determiners are used in front of nouns to indicate whether you are referring to something specific or something of a particular type.Both is used to indicate that the action or state denoted by the verb applies individually to each of the two entities. When both is used with and to link parallel elements in a sentence, the words or phrases that follow them should correspond grammatically. Both can only collocate with plural count nouns.e. g. Both her fingers are broken.Both Mary and Tom like reading English novels.The phrase beginning with each identifies a set of items wherein the words following each identify the individual elements by their shared characteristics. The phrase is grammatically singular in number, so if the phrase is the subject of a sentence, its verb is conjugated into a third-person singular form. Similarly, any pronouns that refer to the noun phrase are singular.e. g. Each candidate has 49 votes.Each voter must decide for herself.Either and neither are used in sentences concerning a possible choice between two items. Either can mean one or the other (of two) or each of two.e.g. I’ve got tea and coffee, so you can have either. (on e or the other)The room has a door at either end.

Determiners (both, each, either or neither, some, any)Determiners are used in front of nouns to indicate whether you are referring to something specific or something of a particular type.Both is used to indicate that the action or state denoted by the verb applies individually to each of the two entities. When both is used with and to link parallel elements in a sentence, the words or phrases that follow them should correspond grammatically. Both can only collocate with plural count nouns.e. g. Both her fingers are broken.Both Mary and Tom like reading English novels.The phrase beginning with each identifies a set of items wherein the words following each identify the individual elements by their shared characteristics.

Unit 5 Fourteen StepsHal Manwaring1They say a cat has nine lives，1 and I am inclined to think that possible since I am now living my third life and I’m not even a cat. My first life began on a clear，cold day in November 1934, when I arrived as the sixth of eight children of a farming family。

My father died when I was 15，and we had a hard struggle to make a living。

As the children grew up，they married，leaving only one sister and myself to support and care for Mother，who became paralyzed in her last years and died while still in her 60s。

My sister married soon after, and I followed her example within the year.2This was when I began to enjoy my first life. I was very happy, in excellent health, and quite a good athlete。

My wife and I became the parents of two lovely girls。

I had a good job in San Jose and a beautiful home up the peninsula in San Carlos。
