notonly…butalso用法浅析1
notonly…butalso应连接两个相对称的并列成分
例如:NotonlyMrLinbutalsohissonjoinedthePartytwoyearsago
(连接两个主语)Inotonlyplaytennisbutalsopractiseshooting
(连接两个谓语动词)Heplaysnotonlythepianobutalsotheviolin
(连接两个宾语)TheyspeakEnglishnotonlyinclassbutalsointhedormitory
(连接两个地点状语)注1:Shenotonlysingswellbutalsodancesbeautifully
=Shedoesn'tonlysingwellbutalsodancesbeautifully
注2:句子Henotonlyplaysthepianobutalsotheviolin不是好的文体,因为butalso之后的成分与notonly之后的成分不对称
notonly…butalso连接两个分句,并且notonly位于句首时,第一个分句中的主语和谓语要部分倒装
例如:Notonlydoesthesungiveuslightbutalsoitgivesusheat
NotonlydidhespeakEnglishcorrectly,butalsohespeaksitfluently
Notonlyisthisyoungmancleverbutalsoheishardworking
notonly…butalso不能用在否定句中
例如:误:Theydon'tfearnotonlyhardshipbutalsodeath
正:Theyfearneitherhardshipnordeath
正:Theydon'tfeareitherhards
