This sentence uses the construction not only x but also y：x z and y must be grammatically parallel．In this sentence，not only appears directly before the first verb，so but also should appear immediately before the second set of verbs．The winds．．．not only blow…but also damage or destroy． AAnd also is not the correct idiom；not only 1s followed by but also or also． BAs well as does not complete not only；damaging or destroying flee not parallel to blow． CThe subject(they)does not need to be repeated；cause damage is not parallel to blow and would require the preposition to before young plants． DCorrect．In this sentence，not only is properly followed by but also，and damage or destroy is parallel to blow． ECausing damage or destroying is not parallel to The correct answer is D．
对解释存在疑问，黄色部分的意思是not only... also... 也对吗？ 作者: aeoluseros 时间: 2011-3-2 00:17

我们上PHILOSOPHY课的时候，教授说过Not only did the guy do...., he also did...之类的话。作者: swimswan 时间: 2011-3-2 14:05
好吧，既然OG说过这样的话了，就当做对的好了 只是在遇见not only... , also ...的时候不要判其为错，自己还是不要用作者: aeoluseros 时间: 2011-3-3 13:39
看来是可以的，not only...but also的老精华帖需要改进了：
LONGMAN，not： not only ... (but) also ... --> 可惜没有针对性例句. *Shakespeare was not only a writer but also an actor. not only do/will/can etc *Not only do the nurses want a pay increase, they want reduced hours as well.
牛津字典，not： (idm 习语) not only...(but) also (used to emphasize the addition of sb/sth 用以强调递进关系的某人[某事物]): Not only the grandparents were there but also the aunts, uncles and cousins. 不光是祖父母, 连姑母﹑ 叔父及其子女也在那里. * He not only writes his own plays, he also acts in them. 他不仅是自编剧本, 还饰演其中的角色. -->这个例句应该满足了
AHD，not： 当第二部分只是强调第一部分时，在not only 结构里 also 通常省略。 He not only wanted the diamond but wanted it desperately.
Cambridge，not only： http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/only_4#only_4__3 not only ... (but) alsoused to say that two related things are true or happened, especially when this is surprising or shockingNot only did he turn up late, he also forgot his books. If this project fails it will affect not only our department, but also the whole organization.
另外 在LONGMAN里查only，有这么一条： not only ... but (also)atnot.

今天看到一道题，发现： not only ... but also 结构中but 和also都可以省略，但是不能同时省略
prep2007-147. (32726-!-item-!-188;#058&006292)
By pressing a tiny amount of nitrogen between two diamonds to a pressure of 25 million pounds per square inch, scientists not only were able to transform the gas into a solid, but they also created a semiconductor similar to silicon.
(A) not only were able to transform the gas into a solid, but they also created (B) not only were able to transform the gas into a solid but also creating (C) were able not only to transform the gas into a solid but to create (D) were able not only to transform the gas into a solid but also creating (E) were not only able to transform the gas into a solid, but they were also able to create
句子结构：By pressing… scientists were able not only to … but to… 平行结构。
(C) 正确，not only to transform… but to create…作者: courtdancer 时间: 2011-3-21 21:50
PREP里的解释是 如果not only 前面是部分倒装结构的 后面不一定非要出现but also 但是PREP里出现的后半句也是but it also 省略but 或者省落also的没见过作者: swimswan 时间: 2011-3-21 22:10
这么说6# 的 (A) not only were able to transform the gas into a solid, but they also created (E) were not only able to transform the gas into a solid, but they were also able to create
是对的喽？prep说这里they和they were多余作者: crack25 时间: 2011-10-8 11:09
问一下关于thereby这个用法，是直接参照这个题目中的后接结果就可以了吗？只知道thereby--- in which，但是一般怎-判断thereby这个用法正确与否呢？求助作者: coconutmi 时间: 2013-8-18 15:57
not only……but also 确实有很多变体，我在书上看过，google搜一下外国的例子也有，这个百度也有讲到： http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/156306177.html
