Not Only but also 用法总结

Charline_chang

  OG 2019 第800题出现了 NOT only... , also...的用法，不同于通常人们理解 not only... , but （also） 的用法，因此查各种资料，将not only，but also. 的用法总结如下：
Not only but also 用法总结（一）:
Not only…  but (also)…  封闭式平行结构，所以省略号部分需要成分一样，不要有任何省略，这个结构可以连接任何平行成分，包括形容词，动词 甚至句子；
E.g.
We wore not only boots（靴子）， but also sandals(凉鞋).【逗号可有可无】；【名词平行】
We wore not only boots but sandals.
A boss not only in name but in fact.【介词平行】
He not only promised but also performed.【动词平行】
Not only are you funny, but (also) you are witty.【句子平行】

在句子平行的结构当中，but 或者 but also 都可以省略，这种情况下 不用保证前后的封闭式平行；
E.g.
Not only was he ugly, he was not interesting to talk to either.[否定中的也用either]
That would not only be regrettable(令人遗憾的), it would be quiet disastrous(灾难性的).

结构里的also 也可以用 as well 代替， as well 放在句末；
only 可以用just， merely代替；
E.g.
We wore not only boots but sandals as well. [MAHATTAN : SUSPECT ]
He is  not merely a good cook，he is an artist.
We wore not just boots but also sandals.

Not only but also 用法总结（二）:

一 替换：
(1) not only, and (2) but (also). The (1) is occasionally written not just or not alone, while (2) is commonly seen in the forms but . . . too and but . . . as well.
E.g.
It was not just a big bear, but a grumpy one as well.
Not alone did she win the race, but she also beat the record.
He not only used a fictitious example, but he reproduced it too.

二省略：
（1）but (also) could also be written as (but) also, since but sometimes doesn’t appear either.
E.g.
He not only used a fictitious example, but he also reproduced it.
He not only used a fictitious example, he also reproduced it.
Rowers not only face backward, they race backward.
最后一句话：Doing without but or also tends to reduce formality, or to reduce stiffness in formal prose, and can benefit short and straightforward constructions.

（2）But (also) can appear by itself, without being preceded by not only:
E.g.
It depends on your point of view, but also on where you live.
The article, based on a lengthy interview with Kidd, but also on discussions with other figures in Joyce and general editorial scholarship, contained the essentials of the row which was then inevitable.

（3）Not only could have been inserted as follows:

E.g.

The article, based not only on a lengthy interview with Kidd, but also on discussions with other figures…

三 平行

[subject, verb] not only [noun] but also [noun]

E.g.
The controversy damages not only sales but also shareholder confidence.


[subject] not only [verb, noun] but also [verb, noun]
E.g.
The controversy not only damages sales but also undermines shareholder confidence.

64.        Doctors generally agree that such factors as cigarette smoking, eating rich foods high in fats, and alcohol consumption not only do damage by themselves but also aggravate genetic predispositions toward certain diseases.  
(A)  not only do damage by themselves but also aggravate
(B)  do damage by themselves but also aggravating to
(C)  are damaging by themselves but also are aggravating
(D)  not only do damage by themselves , they are also aggravating to
(E)  are doing damage by themselves , and they are also aggravating

那这题选A 不是不太合理，因为A为封闭式，那do不应该省略！

我理解的全封闭式平行指的是成份平行，这句话里do damage 中do 对damage进行强调，两者合起来做谓语；后面aggravate 的意思是“使加重” 本身有强调的含义在里面。两者都是动词做谓语，所以也是平行的。

如果 not only A but also B ，其中 A的结构是主谓，而另一个B只有谓语，那么就是错的，成分不平行。
另外 如果A B 是介词短语，如果一个有介词，另外一个没有介词，两者不平行，因为介词短语一般是状语，而单独的名词 一般是宾语，两个成分不一样，也不平行。

这里的成分平行指的意思是？属性（动词平行动词，N.&N.） 还是意思上的？

我的理解是 谓语 和 谓语平行，宾语和宾语平行，状语和状语平行。
对于意思，主要看句子的逻辑语义。
