Grade 12-Module 4 Achievements The final frontier HHH Giving Choices ( either .or \ neithernor)

When making comparisons, either goes with or and neither with nor: Ex : I want to buy either a new desktop computer or a laptop, but I have neither the cash nor the credit I need. Either often gets misplaced in a sentence: Ex : He either wanted to buy a car or a motorbike ( Wrong ) Ex : He wanted to buy either a car or a motorbike. In this example, both things are wanted, so either comes after the verb. But if the action is different in regard to the things compared, the either has to come before the verb: He wanted either to buy a car or hire a motorbike . Here two different actions are being compared, so the either has to precede both actions.
Expression
both and So not either either or neither/nor

Example
I like both cats and dogs. Jane likes cats. So do I. Jane doesn't like cats. I don't like cats either. Jane either has a cat or a dog. Jane doesn't like cats. Neither do I./Nor do I.

neither nor I like neither cats nor dogs.

Translation
Translate into Arabic:
Space travel provides unique health challenges. Astronauts must protect themselves from X-rays and other radiation, keep clean while in space, and exercise their bodies to combat the effects of weightlessness. In some ways, astronauts face the same health concerns that people on Earth do but at an accelerated rate; other health concerns are unique to travel through space.

Translate into Arabic:

Hygiene is as important in space as it is on Earth. If astronauts do not clean their bodies regularly, they become susceptible to germs. It would be difficult to take a shower in space because of the lack of gravity. Astronauts take a sponge bath every day, using one washcloth for washing and one for rinsing, and wash their hair with rinseless shampoo.

Read then answer the question below: From our small world we have gazed upon the cosmic ocean for thousands of years. Ancient astronomers observed points of light that appeared to move among the stars. They called these objects "planets," meaning wanderers, and named them after Roman deitiesJupiter, king of the gods; Mars, the god of war; Mercury, messenger of the gods; Venus, the goddes of love and beauty, and Saturn, father of Jupiter and god of agriculture. The stargazers also observed comets with sparkling tails, and meteors or shooting stars apparently falling from the sky. The four planets closest to the sunMercury, Venus, Earth, and Marsare called the terrestrial planets because they have solid rocky surfaces. The four large planets beyond the orbit of MarsJupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptuneare called gas giants. Tiny, distant, Pluto has a solid but icier surface than the terrestrial planets. Nearly every planetand some of the moonshas an atmosphere. Earth's atmosphere is primarily nitrogen and oxygen. Venus has a thick atmosphere of carbon dioxide, with traces of poisonous gases such as sulfur dioxide. Marss carbon dioxide atmosphere is extremely thin. Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are primarily hydrogen and helium. When Pluto is near the sun, it has a thin atmosphere, but when Pluto travels to the outer regions of its orbit, the atmosphere freezes and collapses to the planet's surface. In that way, Pluto acts like a comet. In four sentences of your own write down why it is difficult to live on other planets:
