Answer:
"Neither ketchup nor mayo are in the kitchen"
"She asked for neither the blanket or the pillow"
"I cannot not understand him nor his motives"
Explanation:
The first sentence appropriately uses <u>both</u> neither and nor.
The second sentence appropriately uses <u>neither</u>.
The third sentence appropriately uses <u>nor</u>.
Neither says you don't want either
Nor says you don't want or
This sentence is a metaphor. Metaphors are rhetorical figures of speech which have to do with symbolic comparisons without the use of comparing words such as <em>like </em>or <em>as </em>(because when those words are used, it is a simile). So here, the man is compared to a machine based on how many hours he can work. It is also not an analogy, because analogies are references to people or events outside of the work where the analogy is used.
