请问此句中either和or的后面为什么分别都加上了of?删掉of是不是也正确?
In most Wessex Cottages properties you have the choice either of hiring linen,at a cost of $6 per person per week,or of bringing your own.

Answer 1

此句中of是跟choice配合的,you have the choice of hiring linen,or( have the choice )of bringing your own.either...or 只是起到把这两种选项连起来放在主句中的作用,of不能删.
