中考热词 not only…but also…的用法
中考英语考题中,not only…but also…出现的频率比较高,但是总会有一些考生由于对它理解得不够透彻,而失去分数。not only… but also…是一个并列连词,用于连接两个表示并列关系的成分,可以是短语,也可以是句子,着重强调后者。它的汉语意思是“不仅 …… 而且 ...…;既……又……”,其中的also或 but有时可以省略。它的用法比较复杂,但是本文只对其中考考点以及和它有关的知识点作一归纳。
1.就近原则 not only … but also 连接两个主语时,谓语动词要和与其最近的主语保持人称和数的一致,也就是句子中的谓语动词由but also后的词决定谓语的单复数形式。
Not only his friends but also his teacher has visited the museum.
Not only his teacher but also his friends has visited the museum.
不仅是他的朋友们,他的老师也参观了那家博物馆。/不仅是他的老师,他的朋友们也参观了那家博物馆。(译法不同,强调后者。)
2. 连接谓语动词时,动词放在not only后和but also后,而且时态要一致.
She not only sings well but also dances beautifully. = She doesnt only sing well but also dances beautifully.
她不仅唱得好,而且舞得美。
3.连接两个分句时,第一个分句要使用倒装语序,也就是把助动词或be动词放到主语前面去.
Not only is he good at singing,but also he likes dancing.他不仅擅长唱歌,而且喜欢跳舞。
4. 同义句 both…and… “……和……都 ” 谓语动词用复数,不能采取就近原则。
Both you and he are interested
in playing basketball.(复数)
.你和他都对打篮球感兴趣。
Not only you but also he is interested in playing basketball.(就近)不仅你而且他也对打篮球感兴趣。
5.反义句也是否定句 neither…nor…既不……也不…… 谓语动词采取就近原则。
Neither you nor I am against the plan.不仅你,我也反对这个计划。
朋友们,英语中还有一些采取就近原则的词语,你能想到吗?
