成人英語三級考試詞匯辨析:not only but also用法
    1、not only … but also 應(yīng)連接兩個(gè)相對稱的并列成分。例如:
    Not only Mr Lin but also his son joined the Party two years ago. (連接兩個(gè)主語)

    注 1 :She not only sings well but also dances beautifully. = She doesn't only sing well but also dances beautifully.
    注 2 :句子He not only plays the piano but also the violin 不是好的文體,因?yàn)閎ut also之后的成分與not only之后的成分不對稱。
    2、not only … but also連接兩個(gè)分句,并且not only位于句首時(shí),第一個(gè)分句中的主語和謂語要部分倒裝。例如:
    Not only does the sun give us light but also it gives us heat.
    Not only did he speak English correctly,but also he speaks it fluently.
    Not only is this young man clever but also he is hardworking.
    3、not only … but also不能用在否定句中。例如:

    正:They fear neither hardship nor death.
    正:They don't fear either hardship or death.
    4、not only … but also連接兩個(gè)主語時(shí),謂語動(dòng)詞要和與其最近的主語保持人稱和數(shù)的一致。例如:
    Not only the students but also the teacher was against the plan. / Not only the teacher but also the students were against the plan.
    5、not only … but also中的not only不能分開使用,但but also卻可以分開使用。例如:
    The area was not only hit by an unexpected heavy rain,but some bridges were also washed away.
    6、not only … but also連接兩個(gè)并列成分時(shí),可以省略but 或also ,也可以把but also都省略掉。例如:

    He was not only compelled to stay at home,( but )also forbidden to see his friend.
    She not only finished the task ahead of time,( but also )she came to help us.
    7、也可用but … too / as well替代not only … but also中的but also。例如:
    She not only sang well but danced gracefully too( or as well )
    8、也可以用besides,furthermore,moreover,in addition 等替代not only … but also 中的but also。例如:
    Not only was there no food,but also (或furthermore,besides,moreover,in addition )there was no water.
    9、也可用merely,just,simply 等替代not only … but also 中的only。例如:
    They not merely ( or just, simply )broke into his office and stole his books but also tore up his manuscripts.
    10、not only A but also B = B as well as A,但前者的強(qiáng)調(diào)重點(diǎn)在B ;后者的強(qiáng)調(diào)重點(diǎn)也在B。(漢譯時(shí),要先譯 as well as 后面的詞)例如:
    The child is not only healthy but also lively. (= The child is lively as well as healthy. )這孩子既健康又活潑。
    It concerns not only me but also you. (= It concerns you as well as me. )
    這件事不但與我有關(guān),而且也與你有關(guān)。
