Have you ever seen a whale blowing?

No, I have never.

No, I never have.

问: 你见过鲸喷水吗？

答: 我从未见过。

never在句中应该是什么位置？

对上例问句否定回答，完整的句子应该为: No，I have never seen a whale blowing.

简略回答时则为 No, never. 或者:No，I never have.

一般来说，副词never的位置有下列情况:

1) 当谓语是由单个动词构成的时候，放在该词后面。例如:

I hope never to see him again.

(=I don't hope ever to see him again.)

我希望不再见到他。

I intend never to see him again.

(= I don't intend ever to see him again.)

我不想再见他。

2) 当谓语是行为动词和助动词构成的复合谓语时，放在助动词之后，行为动词之前。

He has never failed me in my need.

我穷困时他总是接济我。

I will never consent.

我绝不同意。

其中 you never can tell是个例外。

3) never 不放在平常的位置上,就是加重的说法，后面的主语和动词常要因之而颠倒。例如:

Never shall I see him again.

我不会再见到他。

Never in my life have I heard of such a thing.

我生平没有听到过这样的事儿。

如果不把never放在句首，虽同样是加重语气，也不必颠倒主语和谓语动词。

例如:

I never saw him before.

以前没见过他。

He never has filled me in my need.

我穷困时他总是接济我。(这一例语气较前例为重。)

此外，never 应放置于分词（participle) 和不定式 (infinative) 的前面，例如:

Never having seen him before，I did not know what he looked like.

我从没见过他，不知他是什么样子。

I am under promise never to taste strong drink.

我发誓永不喝烈酒。
