not only but also怎么用
的有关信息介绍如下:not only…but also…意思是“不但……而且……”,是在英语中用得较多的一个关联词组,通常用于连接两个表示并列关系的成分,表示递进的关系,而且着重强调后者,不能用于否定句中。not only…but also…在不同应用中,有时可以省略also,有时可以省略but,有时可以同时省略but also,其中用法颇为复杂!
not only…but also…比较正常的用法可以相当于…as well as…"既……又/也……“(用于句中,先翻译as well as后面部分),比如The child is not only healthy but also lovely.”这孩子不但健康而且可爱“=The child is lovely as well as healthy ."这孩子既健康又可爱”。也就是 not only A but also B 和 B as well as A 形式。
这种用法主要是连接两个对等的成分,如“:He plays not only basketball but also football."他不仅打篮球,还踢足球。”
有时not only会放在句首,那么这时not only引导的句子就要用到装的形式。Not only does the sun give ua warm but also it gives us hope."太阳不仅给了我们温暖,还给了我们希望。“
not only…but also…如果连接两个主语作名词时,谓语动词要与but also后面的名词单、复数一致(就近原则)。比如:
Not only the teachers but also he likes me.”不仅老师们,还有他也喜欢我“
在not only…but also…搭配应用中,有时可以只用but或者只用also,甚至有时可以把but also都省略。I not only got it but (also) ate it."我不仅拿到了(它),而且吃到了(它)。Not only was I tired, I was also feel sleepy ."我不仅累了,而且感觉困了。”Shenot only finished the task, (but also) wrote a summary about it."她不仅完成了这个任务,还写了一份关于它的总结。“
有时but 和 also 也可以分开使用,如:Not only the father but the clildren are also sick."不仅父亲,而且孩子们也生病了。
