In 1978 a national study found
that not only had many contractors licensed by a self-policing private guild
failed to pass qualifying exams, they in addition falsified their references.

(A) they in
addition falsified their references

(B) they had their
references falsified in addition

(C) but they had
also falsified their references

(D) they had also
falsified their references（C）

(E) but their
references were falsified as well

C is the best of all, agreed. But     'not only' and 'but also' can not be seprated?

but also不能随便分。我想这里also分开只是表示but also实际的位置在谓语。

OG上表明：not noly... but (also)...


C中，此处的also并不是固定用法，而是副词修饰falsified

Snazzy

thanks, dreadpower, can you elaborate where it is explained in OG?

再提出来问一下，not only...but also...中but和also可以分开吗，会不会造成歧义？

像风一样离去

在倒装语序下貌似是可分的。可以看PREP笔记
