个人猜测(还请指正):
not only… but (also)…后面所接的内容应该是终止性的。好象没有见过连接两个形容词。

some time also can be omitted in"not only ...but also",  and the expression is correct.

in 169,A is wrong because when "prove" is a transitive  verb it means:to show(oneself) to be worthy or capable,It should followed by an object.otherwise,it would be "prove to be"in this status.

C is wrong because it should be a "that" follow believe.
believe that
believe sth.
believe to be...
