2. I hadn’t, until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was harm in a hamburger. 我没有,直到有一天,我五岁的儿子问我汉堡里是否有火腿。

(2) neither或nor可以单独作主语,表示“两者中没有一个”,语序为:neither+连系动词be/助动词/情态动词+主语+动原。
eg: Neither was my wife able to persuade my daughter to change her mind nor were my parents. 我妻子和父母都没能说服我女儿改变主意。
(3) 表示“一个人没有做某事,另一个人也没做同一类事”时,可用neither或nor引起的部分倒装句进行简略回答,其结构为:Neither/Nor+助动词/情态动词/be动词+主语。
eg: If you don’t go to the movies, neither/nor will I. 如果你不去看电影,我也不去。
