9.617-!-item-!-187;#058&000317

Each of the 105 students in a certain club is either a freshman, a sophomore, or a junior.How many of the students in the club are sophomores?

(1)The ratio of the number of freshmen to the number of sophomores is 1 to 2.

(2)The ratio of the number of freshmen to the number of juniors is 1 to 4.

虽然以前在报纸上读过either or 连接三个东西，但一直以为是作者没想清楚

没想到prep上也会出现这样的结构

难道说either or 的确可以连接两个以上的东西？

From Answers.com:

Either:
conj.

Used before the first of two or more coordinates or clauses linked by or

Example:
When either is used as a conjunction, no paraphrase with any is available, and so either is unexceptionable even when it applies to more than two clauses: Either the union will make a counteroffer or the original bid will be refused by the board or the deal will go ahead as scheduled.
