216. Many policy experts say that shifting a portion of health-benefit costs back to the workers helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps to limit medical spending by making patients more careful consumers.

(A)  helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps

(B)
helps the control of the employer's costs, and also

(C)  
not only helps to control the employer's costs, but also helps

(D)  
helps to control not only the employer's costs,but

(E)  
not only helps to control the employer's costs,and also helps


OG 中说,alternatively, the two effects, stated in parallel ways, could simply be linked by "and also",意思是 not only...but also和and also是等价的嘛,但是and also 不是and 与also 重复吗??
请指教~~

Idiom + Parallelism

The correlative pair not only...but also can be used to describe the two effectsnot only helps to contro1...but also helps to limitThese effects should be grammatically and logically parallelIt is incorrect to use but also by itselfA1tematively, the two effectsstated in parallel wayscould simply be finked by and also

ABut also must be used as part of the correlative pair not onlybut also

BHelps the control of is awkward and is not parallel to the effect to limit

CCorrectThis sentence uses the not only...but also construction correctly and expresses the two effects in parallel ways

DAlso is required in the not onlybut also constructionnot only should precede helps

EThe not onlybut also construction requires the phrase but alsorather than and also

The correct answer is C

我不是太明白顶楼你说的。not only……but also……的确跟and also相等,从语法上讲,如果B前半截句子改成 helps to control the employer's costs,那么B也是正确的,即使这样,从gmat的sc考试标准来讲,c也比改变了的b好,因为not only……but also是gmat喜欢的平行结构idiom。

可能是我没表达清楚,不好意思
不是经常在and  与 and also两个选项之间选嘛(具体题一下子想不起),and  also   OG说的就是and  和 also 是属于重复,只用and 就可以了。那么这里为什么又可以用and also

谢谢了~
