 Grammar﹕Too, either

【明報專訊】Bill and MoMo are looking for some new CDs. What kind of music do they like?

MoMo: Look! Bruno Mars has released a new album! Shall we listen to it?

Bill: I like Bruno Mars too. He is a famous R&B singer. Let's get it.

MoMo: Shall we find some soothing music as well?

Bill: Sure. Dr Panda loves classical music. Do they have Vivaldi's violin pieces?

MoMo: Hmm... Let me see. No... I think the Vivaldi ones are sold out.

They don't have Mozart's either.

Bill: What a pity. Maybe we shall go to the shopping mall near the supermarket. There is a big record outlet.

MoMo: Yes, let's go there. I want to visit the record outlet too.

■English highway﹕

We use "too" and "either" when we share the same feeling or opinion that is mentioned earlier. We use "too" for affirmative sentences and "either" for negative sentences.

e.g. A: I don't like coffee. Can I have some tea?

B: I don't like coffee either. (ˇ)

(I don't like coffee too.) (╳)

I would have tea, too. (ˇ)

■Now you try

(Answers on next text)

I am allergic to many ingredients. I love eggs, but I can't eat them because my doctor said I can't have too much protein. I can't drink milk (1) ( too / either ) because milk contains protein (2) ( too / either ). My brother doesn't drink milk (3) ( too / either ), but he doesn't have an allergy. He just doesn't like the taste.

■Glossary

album (n) 音樂專輯

soothing (adj) 撫慰的;鎮靜的

outlet (n) 專營店

allergic to (adj) 過敏
