---____________.
A)So have I B)So do I C)Neither have I D)Neither do I
选哪个
答：这一题是有争议的.
“正确”答案就是那个能得分的答案是D
译：彼得以前没有去过国外.他对西方文化知道得不多.
我知道的也不多.
析：否定情况适用于后者,用Nor/Neither+助动词+后者（代词）
争议：Neither do I 是倒装省略句,相当于：I don't know much about western culture,either.
这里是将前一句当成了一个否定句：He doesn't know much about western culture.
因为little的意思是not much,
但是：He knows little about western culture.尽管是一个否定的意思的句子,但却不是一个否定句,因为little不是副词,而是一个代词,作knows的宾语的.和He dislikes English一样,属于否定句.我们知道：He dislikes English.其反意疑问尾句不是does he?而是doesn't he?如果说她也不喜欢英语,则说So does she,而不说：Neither does she.是同一道理,因为dislike 只是有个否定前缀,并没有否定副词,He dislikes English.不是否定句,而是肯定句.你可以将它理 ：他讨厌英语.So does she.意为：她也讨厌英语.
所以He knows little about western culture.是一个肯定句,你可以将它翻译成：他对西方文化知之甚少,后面说：我也是这样.So do I.
另外,这题前面说了两句话,一句是现在完成时否定句,一句是一般现在时（肯定还是否定有争议）.后面说：我也是这样（汉语肯定否定都可用）时,是针对第一句还是第二句还是两句全包括呢?让人为难.一般认为是针对最后一句话说的.所以不应该选C更不可能选A.
如果用and将这两句话合成一句,则如果要表示前面这种复杂情况也适用于我的话,只能说：
So it is with me.= It is the same with me.意为这种情况于我是一样的.
据说现在初中已经不考：He knows little about western culture.句的反意疑问句了.
